Wild video shows moment rioters easily overtake Capitol
NY Post ^ | 1/6/2021 | Kenneth Garger

Wild footage posted online shows the moment a mass of rioters easily overtakes police outside the Capitol building on Wednesday.

The video, first posted to TikTok, then shared on Twitter, is shot from behind the flimsy barricades that proved to be no match for a sea of President Trump supporters set on breaching the Capitol building.

The demonstrators can be seen easily pushing through the barriers and the limited police presence.

I was surprised at how large the group was. Not all of them took advantage of the breakdown in the police lines to stroll over and into the Capitol. But quite a few did. I wonder if we'll ever know the identities and motivations of those who were at the front of the lines. Or of the ones who followed them. Although the video doesn't last long enough to tell for sure, my guess is that the vast majority stayed back and chose to not cross over the shattered police line.

If they were leftist protesters, the media would say they were "mostly peaceful."

Yes, that video is wild. Never thought we'd see Trump supporters behave the way leftwing rioters have been behaving all year.

The “breakdown in the police lines” was deliberate. As they pointed out over at thedonald.win, one of the most secure buildings of the planet ought never have suffered such a breach. And it only gives greater credence to the fact that the ones let inside were Antifa.

What you saw was a pre-planned false flag operation.

Liberal wuss, Chrissy Wallace, angrily said yesterday (Wed, Jan 6) that he had been a reporter covering the Vietnam War protests and never once saw any of the "anti-war" protesters get near the US Capitol. (in reality, they weren't anti-war, they were just anti-US military. They were communists who were on the side of the North Vietnamese enemy)

In fact, the communist-revolutionary, domestic terrorist, Weather Underground openly bragged about bombing the US Capitol AND the Pentagon!

It's already been established that a good number of the most aggressive were ANTIFA types posing as rightwing Trump supporters.

At first, I thought so, too, especially after seeing some protesters with hoodies, some with skateboards, etc. But, now it looks like most were Trump supporters. Who really knows at this point, though? Maybe we’ll learn more in time. The explosives set at DNC & RNC sound more like the Left. Hope we find out the truth soon...

Finally. After 10 months, the media can finally bring itself to use the terms "riot" and "rioters".

According to the media; cities being burned to the ground = "peaceful protests", but people occupying the capitol building that we all pay for with our taxes is considered a "riot". If that was a riot, it was the tamest riot in history, especially compared to the destruction we saw over the summer & fall that was allowed to continue under the leftist governors & mayors.

I hope a similar protest happens on Jan. 20, or at least the threat of it happening in order to keep the congress-critters in a state of fear.

This exactly. Men in Police marked uniforms took down barricades and called for the people to come. There were some Trump supporters inside the “breached” building walking around with no clue as to what they were doing but the leaders of the van, the guy in the horned costume and two others are positively identified as ANTIFA. Yes, this was a false flag operation and the Capitol Police, amongst others, were in on it.

I guess that comment was supposed to make me feel bad.

But it just makes you sound like an idiot.
