I am shocked and horrified that it is taking so long to clear those who have breached the Capitol. There is more police efficiency and aggression in a run of the mill BLM protest. Edit: for example: https://twitter.com/RedR1dngHood/status/1346908557560537091

The police and the fascists are on the same side.

everything is fascist nice argument libtard

Is there ANY credible evidence of fraud, anywhere? Or are people protesting solely because they trust Trump?

There is very suspect video evidence of hidden away votes being snuck in once the room was cleared and those votes pushed Biden on top after Trump was winning. There is also iffy statistical data on the numbers of votes.

Appeal to authority, what higher authority than the POTUS? For weeks people have been telling Trump and his enablers they were playing with fire. Well..

When does it stop being"protests" in the reporting?

When the protesters have darker skin.

Where's the tear gas and rubber bullets? Where is the national guard? There was more police response for a fscking photo op!

The Defense Department has just denied a request by DC officials to deploy the National Guard to the US Capitol.

There definitely appears to be people on camera admitting to committing a serious felony:

I don't think this is a Trump/Biden issue like it has been made out to be.

If there are claims of election fraud, then let's see the evidence and release the audit of Dominion voting machines which many people laid down their professional lives to back the claims of election fraud.

The stark difference in the response to these "protests" vs the DC BLM protests:

It is despicable how tepid the police response to armed rioters storming the Capitol has been compared to the response to BLM protests over the summer.
