LIVE: US Capitol on Lockdown After Mob of Trump Supporters Raid the Building

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The United States Senate and the House of Representatives are currently on lockdown in the Capital building after a mob of Trump supporters raided the building. 

In the video above the US Senate and House were attempting to certify the 2020 US Presidential Election. 

A number of Republicans opposed the election while the Democrats all wanted to certify. 

During the debate over Arizona a recess was called after a crowd of President Trump supporters who were outside of the building gained access inside.

The capital is currently still on lockdown.

Shoot the first one through the door and then hang the rest as they come in.

Here you go boys, trumpanzees on the loose, they must have emptied every homeless shelter in D.C. to that many ungroomed beer guzzlers together.   Here's what Pfluger and Cruz wanted and are backing, so they can reap what the sowed.  Thanks teddy and august!

Since Trump encouraged the mob to march on the capital and fight, I believe he should be charged with high treason.  Another example of a person can be very intelligent, but people, as a whole, are extremely stupid.

It is abundantly clear the country has a new political party called MIFT (Mindless Idiots For Trump).  This applies to anyone who considers the November election to have been stolen, since this factless fantasy was born in the alleged mind of the vile, soulless creature currently contaminating the Oval Office.

His followers are at best fools, and at worst... see what happened in Washington.

Using this same logic against you regarding the George Floyd protests.  "tHeY WeRe tRuMp sUpPoRtErS DrEsSeD As bLm aNd aNtIfA."

Now do you see how stupid this sounds? Conservatives have been vilifying these protests for months. When are you gonna do the same here?

How do you say this in confidence when metro police are videoed opening the barricades, opening the doors to the capitol and then Donald Jr blasting a 3 minute video of them partying and encouraging the entire process with Trump himself in the video none the less. 5 people died. Trump TOLD his supporters they need to walk to the Capitol and take back "what's theirs". He said something big would happen on the 6th and to just wait...

He planned this and should be arrested for it. It's disgusting no matter what side you are on

Ted Curz needs to resign and be disbarred, he helped create this terrorist coup attempt. The GOP needs to be dealt with like any other organized crime ring, it needs to be broken up and the RNC needs pay for all the damage to the capital.

BLM / ANTIFA wasn't there, right?  A known and previously arrested BLM/ANTIFA organizer filmed the Capitol Police shooting the unarmed female veteran INSIDE THE CAPITOL.

Oh, and I love the "mob" all walking peacefully inside the rails...  Mob indeed.
