SG is trolling right? Yeah, Capitol Police/security deserved to be criticzed. But that's like totally ignoring the root cause of the damn thing. Which is that a certain someone incited a bunch of people and riled them up and more or less told them to do this.
Fuck off SG for supporting or blaming anyone other than Trump and his supporters.

Per people close to the White House, several official and unofficial aides are trying - without success - to get the president to issue a stronger statement. He simply won't do it. He's been furious at Pence for refusing to do something he doesn't have power to do and that's that

I'm just going to leave this here and not comment on how fucking stupid he is.

It seems like the National Guard has been deployed now and that earlier report was wrong. They got deployed after Pelosi requested it, apparntly.

We're past the point of pointing guns and bluffing. Start pulling the trigger. This is a terrorist attack. Mow down all of them in the building and start arresting those outside. It'll stop a potential second wave dead in its tracks.
This isn't acceptable under any circumstances.
Yeah, they just need to brings and artillery at this point. These people are zombies and really don't give a shit. I mean some of these clowns are climbing the building. It's sad how reality has mirrored a horror movie. There's peaceful protest and then there's this. It's definitely terroism and the defense department is dumb for turning down the request to bring in the National guard.

This is what Trump asked for...and he is never held accountable for anything...EVER.
It's time for him to be held accountable...long past time actually. I'm so tired of this shit becoming normal...and for what? So little Donnie's feelings don't get hurt?
This guy has always been the problem.
Yeah, he always has been. Hiliary basically predicted this in one of those debates. They won't do it but Trump needs to be impeached again.

It's it. Parts of the Capitol are on lockdown now. A real leader would give a speech or tweet about how this is wrong and Joe Biden has been fairly elected as the next US President and we should all come together as a nation etc...but we know that Trump won't be making that statement. More likely to come from George Bush or Colin Powell.
These people have gotten inside the building now. They need to use tear gas, force, whatever. These nuts are dangerous.
Edit: also left out that these clowns may destroy a building that's been around since 1793 and is one of the symbols of our government. Not that those people would give a shit about that.

This is sad. We should be embarrassed about this shit. Do these idiots even know what the hell they are protesting? I don't usually advocate this AT ALL. But the Capitol/DC police need to respond with force.
These idiots are protesting a LIE brought forth by a SORE LOSER. If you're any American at all, you can't condone this shit, period.

If Vice President @Mike_Pence comes through for us, we will win the Presidency. Many States want to decertify the mistake they made in certifying incorrect & even fraudulent numbers in a process NOT approved by their State Legislatures (which it must be). Mike can send it back!

LOL Pence just gave him the finger by saying the Constitution does not grant him that power. This is a giant waste of time on everyone's part only to satisfy the whims of an idiot who is about to leave office in two weeks.

People are standing in line for 8 hours to take the vaccine.
Yeah, it's because the federal government didn't order enough and fucked it up as usual. Pfizer the manufacturer says they have lots of vaccines available and the US hasn't requested more. Unless you are a total partisan that falls on Trump bungling this AGAIN.

That's really the lengths they would have to go to? Isn't that what the utility companies do when you stop paying the bills?
I guess it still concerns me the lengths we're going to so that we don't make him look badly. If he refuses to leave, that requires some sort of public embarrassment to me.
And if he doesn't show up to the inauguration, what does that do? Are we all in agreement that is virtually no chance he'd show?
People keep saying that after January 20th, it's over. Is it really? Don't you remember how he behaved while Obama was in office...it'll be that times 10.
In 4 years, he'll almost be 80. I wonder if he thinks he'll never die. I don't see how he'd pull that off. It's not just about age, it's about his style. How can he possibly keep up the pace? When anger and revenge motivate you this much, I just wonder how far it will take him.
It's "over" in the sense that he's not fucking up the government and holding it hostage due to his whims or whatever. He is just a citizen and can say whatever he wants. Now currently, he is holding shit up with this refusing to concede and just making a sideshow of our country. The government is not really "functioning" right now and you have this mini war going on in within factions of the GOP.
Good point. He doesn't really live a healthy lifestyle (unlike say George W. Bush) and he's likely to run into problems healthwise.

Cruise is incredible really. This is his fifth decade where he's still near the top of the Hollywood food chain. A lot of his contemporaries have just flamed out (Depp) or just gotten really old (Arnold). Not a lot of people can say that in the history of the business.

Ted Cruz should be ashamed of himself for carrying the torch of this election fraud nonsense.
In 2016 Trump accused Cruz of rigging the primary and then insulted his wife. If Cruz believes Trump now, why didn't he believe him then?
Trump believes all elections are rigged.... including the elections he wins.
A lot of these people need to be voted out of office.
Dems should run someone better than Beto against Cruz.
Can't hardly believe they thought Beto is presidential material. Based on what?!?
I think they should also put in term limits at this point as well. Chuck Grassley is basically the Republican version of Diane Feinstein at this point, whatever he was tweeting about today--total embarrassment.
Not sure I believe it although it would reinforce his cowardice, supposedly a military plane that Trump has used will be flying to Scotland a day before the inauguration.
He's the ultimate pussy of the ages if he doesn't show up for the inauguration. If Carter can show up for Reagan's...and there was tension between those two....then this candy ass can show up too.
He's one of those big talk types but when it comes down to it he'll shrivel down. He always has been a petty bitch. No surprise there. There's a reason that Clinton, Bush, Obama all pretty much hate him and it has nothing to do with party affliation.
From what I've read, if he refuses to leave they will just cut off everything (internet, power etc..) and he will eventually move on back to wherever he chooses to.
