I didn't hear it but supposedly Trump made an address and they expected him to talk about in absolute terms of evidence they have and why they can't let Biden take power

and Trump's speech was just a rehash of the Guliani stuff. It was a big nothing burger

That probably pissed them off more than had he told them real evidence.

"I didn't hear it but supposedly Trump made an address and they expected him to talk about in absolute terms of evidence they have and why they can't let Biden take power"

Yeah, great idea, don't present any absolute terms of evidence in any of the 60+ court cases you've filed, but wait until a rally on the day of the congressional certification of Biden's victory to "present" it to your zombies. Sounds perfectly rational. Of course, as you said, he couldn't even pull that off, b/c, well, there is absolutely not one shred of evidence to support his claims, as has been proven dozens of times in courts all across the country. What a complete shit show this guy has been and still is. As I said, today is the perfect legacy on Trump's presidency. He will always be associated with this day. The founder of the feast, even. Good fucking riddance...

I thought Tuberville was going to protest the count. But they got all the way to Arizona before the first protest was lodged...

Arizona comes before Auburn, duh

No setting fire to the Capitol? No throwing of feces?

I’m disappointed in our side.

good god almighty, I guarantee you that guy carrying the flag can't go within 100 yards of a school

at least one guy was smart enough to wear a mask. No facial recognition software for him

I'm confused. Are these angry Trump supporters or angry Houston Texans fans?

I don't know what this guys deal is. I think he just like protests

Breaking into the US Capitol isn't "protesting," it's a crime. Many of these idiots will be in prison for a long time. Hope it was worth it...

His name is Jake Angeli. He's been a news darling for a few months now with this act.

If I"m going to raid our nations capital, I'm at least going to wear something more substantial than sweatpants

fwiw, the two guys in the left of that photo are connected with the philly antifa

Just saw an old dude in the crowd who looked, ironically, like a rabbi, holding a sign that said "Make America's penis great again with a foreskin! Outlaw bloody traumatic circumcision. I have a foreskin, I don't need viagra," and another one that said "No foreskin, no peace"...

This is all pure fucking comedy. Thankfully the Capitol police didn't shoot anyone like they should have. Imagine this in the 70s 80s. Shot on site. They (Capitol police) knew this was only going to be a failed attempt. I did have fun watching it though. I think I saw ecat.

Mitt Romney:

“We gather today due to a selfish man’s injured pride and the outrage of his supporters whom he has deliberately misinformed for the past two months and stirred to action this very morning. What happened here today was an insurrection, incited by the President of the United States. Those who choose to continue to support his dangerous gambit by objecting to the results of a legitimate, democratic election will forever be seen as being complicit in an unprecedented attack against our democracy. They will be remembered for their role in this shameful episode in American history. That will be their legacy."

Everyone is playing this up much greater than it has to be. Trump lost. His minions tried laughingly and yet tomorrow is the same as yesterday. Trump spoke this morning that he was going to walk with his sheep to the Capitol. Of course he didn't. People screaming about the Capitol being taken over were only fueling ratings. If the Capitol police wanted to they could have shot every Trumpette breaking in but they didn't because they knew it wasn't a major threat. I'm very thankful they didn't because I can only imagine the shit storm the Repubs would start even though they would be wrong. It all worked out fine. The 'threat' never happened. Move on.

You mean this guy?

“To be able to get everyone behind the idea [that] the purpose of our movement shouldn’t be about reforming America, shouldn’t be about trying to make the system better and less unfair towards us, it’s about flipping the table over.
