#22I think it’s important to remember that these are not “protestors”. They are opportunistic rioters that are co-opting a legitimate movement as an excuse to behave like animals.

#23History in the making right here. This[1] might be an early contender for image of the year

#24I 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.
Some of those that work forces
Are the same that burn crosses

#27Is this a coup?
This (aside from the realisation of how fragile american democracy is) isn't yet, but in the Pa. State Senate they have realised they can just refuse to swear in the newly elected democratic senator and refuse to let the Democratic Lt. Gov. Preside.
These Republicans (particularly Ted Cruz) aren't stupid enough to believe their own words, but they're seriously playing with fire risking their countries democracy in the name of a '24 run at a time when China is only getting stronger.

If you're going to make a sweeping assertion like this, it's important to show some concrete facts to back it up. Kind of like claiming an election was rigged :)

I came to say this in a more ironic way, but this is clearer.
During the BLM protests the police wasn't late at showing up fully armed.
