AOC: I hear these huge, violent bangs on my door, and then every door going into my office. Just bang, bang, bang ... like someone was trying to break the door down. [...]
I jump into the bathroom and I immediately realize that I shouldn't have have gone into the bathroom. I should've jumped into the closet. And so I open the door when all of a sudden I hear that whoever was trying to get inside got into my office. And then I start to hear these yells: “Where is she? Where is she?" And I just thought to myself, “They got inside." And this was the moment where I thought everything was over.

This post is to hold accountable lawmakers who participated in the insurrection that took place on January 6th. These lawmakers are people have been voted into office and have made their views clear about who they truly serve (hint: NOT their constituents!). This is about accountability.
If you are okay with allowing white supremacy and facism, GET THE FUCK OFF MY BLOG and CHECK YOUR FUCKING SELF.
I did also use smaller online local papers as I googled each person’s name. I also used Wikipedia for basic information such as party affiliation, home state, and term period information.
There is video of a Capitol police officer confronted by these terrorists, refusing to draw his sidearm as they break through a door and chase him up the stairs.
You want to talk about feeling threatened? If cops can be, "threatened" by a 92 year-old woman with pruning shears, or a child with a BB gun, or a college student fallen asleep on a bench, why are they not threatened by rioting insurgents running after them through their house of government?
I do not often advocate shooting people. But when illegal combatants attempt to overthrow the United States Capitol, and chase police down the halls, the cops need to break out the rubber bullets and rain hell!
