@onemanarmyy: Yup, 13 is the current number out there.

Ridiculous. What if it was minorities pulling this coup shit?

@monkeyking1969: Doesn't help that Trump has the power to send those kinds of people across the country while not having to care about letting DC prepare itself due to the unique situation the DC Gov is in.

As far as I can tell, they're letting most of these people just file out and walk away.

Big shock all around.

Yeah this part is pretty bullshit. Sounds like only a handful of people got arrested. They should at the very least be rounding up the people inside the building. Ridiculous.

Trump tweeted out some BS video asking people to keep the peace and go home while simultaneously claiming that he won in a landslide. Twitter won't let me share the tweet because it may incite violence.

@warofart: They are autonomous. Clearly unprepared, but autonomous. They answer to Congress not the executive branch. Still doesn't excuse them for not coordinating with other law enforcement to be better prepared for potential chaos but I can understand why they would back off.

Four years of instigation by conservative politicians and pundits combined with social media companies who cared only about the dollar have brought us here. A press obsessed with "both sides" and writing fluff pieces on racist voters helped.

Completely agree. It's incredible how 1 man helped by a legion of political enablers and a unrestrained social media megahorn could so quickly change the nation's culture in less than 4 years to just have it all culminate into this steaming pile of shit on display for everyone and the entire world to see.

@finaldasa: Thank you!

What gets me is that video of police just opening that gate up to these insurrectionists. What the fuck. Also whatever happened to the rubber bullets and tear gas? I know someone got shot, but why let it escalate to that point. Did they run out of rubber bullets?

They just didn't have the numbers. It's only the Capitol Police on location at the time when they got rushed. They purposely made space for these people to come in to avoid getting trampled.

If there's any mistake that was made besides our "Dear Leader" who directed people to go to Congress, it's that there wasn't a larger law enforcement coordination to be prepared in advanced for something like this.

Just like the title says, a couple hours ago, Wednesday afternoon, MAGA protestors marched towards the Capitol building, proceeded to storm the Capitol Hill police holding the line outside, and broke into Capital Hill itself.

Here's Trump's speech timestamped at 2:15:00 right at the end where he told his supporters to march toward the Capitol in order to persuade the weak Republicans not on board with overturning the Electoral College votes.

Here's a small gallery of the self-proclaimed "patriots" trespassing into the Hill, Senate chamber, and attempting to breach the House chamber.

The Army activated the National Guard and Virginia is sending 200 State Troopers and other National Guard to go assist in DC and DC mayor instituted a 6pm curfew.

Yeah shit's pretty wild. As much as I'm enjoying the chaos on display because this is the kind bullshit the GOP has allowed to fester under an unrestrained Trump for 4 years, I just hope nobody gets hurt. Never thought I would see this happen outside of some unstable third-world country. What a time we live in.

The game selection is decent. It can't compare to Xbox but that's because Xbox has backcompat. PC app is shit though.
