OK everything got a lot crazier really fast.
Trump lashed out at Pence for not stopping the vote. He is not telling the protesters to leave but instructed them to âsupport the Capitol police and law enforcementâ. Trump later told protesters to âremain peacefulâ despite already storming the Capitol.
Ivanka tweeted out calling the protestors âpatriotsâ but then deleted this tweet and replaced it with one saying violence is not patriotic. Meanwhile Rudy Giulianiâs messaging to protesters is to be peaceful and that they are on âthe right side of historyâ. Neither acknowledges the violence.
The Department of Defense denied a request by DC officials to deploy the National Guard. Supposedly it was because they were beholden to Trump and only acted when he decided to deploy them about an hour later.
Guns were drawn by police on the Senate floor as protesters break through windows in an attempt to reach the room. One women was shot in the chest (GRAPHIC VIDEO). It appears she was with those trying to break into the Senate floor. Later reports state that that 5 people have been transported to the hospital, including at least member of police.
Police are making âattempts to deescalateâ.
Ted Cruz is sending fundraising text messages to contest the vote despite the escalation of the riots. Screenshot of one here.
Mitt Romney called the riots an âinsurrectionâ.
Emergency procedures were emailed to all Capitol staffers urging them to hide.
Mayor Bower issued a 6pm curfew.
Protestors are climbing all over police vehicles without cops stopping them. Maybe because theyâre too busy taking selfies with the protesters.
The potential bomb has been detonated by bomb squad.
Trump is refusing to condemn the protesterâs violence despite being urged to do so by staffers which is a stark contrast to his attitude toward BLM protesters. His aids canât convince him to do anything and the White House briefing room is empty with no preparation to address the nation to be seen.
 Only Pence is stepping up to call for an end to the violence and for protestors to vacate the Capitol.
President elect Biden is calling the protesters a âmobâ and an âinsurrectionâ.
Chris Christie has been attempting without success to contact Trump and convince him to tell his supporters to leave.
As I finished writing this Trump finally posted a video telling people to go home, but also repeated his false election claims. In it he also calls his supporters âvery specialâ and his opponents âevilâ ??
