What a relief, antifa and blm were nowhere to be seen. (/sarc).
A spontaneous riot by Trump supporters, of course, those darned Trump supporters always riot, burn and destroy.

Projectiles were thrown at officers, mace and bear spray were heavily used from both sides.....a mob ran off reporters and destroyed camera equipment.

Who does these things? Trump supporters, or antifa/blm?

The douchebag at the 3-minute mark pushing his buddy into the cop from behind. Shortly after the ensuing melee, he is seen reeling from a face full of mace. Idiot...

Disheartening video but ultimately what decent people can be driven to when freedom is stolen from them. I know that I was really hoping that something very, very significant (like live witness testimony from someone deeply involved who had turned, something that congress could not ignore) was going to be revealed at this rally. Just didn’t make sense to call for a lot of angry patriots to come and say it would be wild without anything new.

Was this guy there for a protest or was he there for a riot. Just because some antifa member breaks through a police barricade doesn’t mean you have to follow him through it.

I left the west side of the Capitol at 1:00 and fences were up. I was on the east side of the Capitol when the President finished his speech. Three minutes later I was walking to the west side and started hearing flash bangs and seeing downed fencing. No way people from that ellipse crowd started the problem.

By 1pm the Capitol police chief was calling for reinforcements. Trump had not even finished his speech (1:11). Trump was about 35 minutes late starting his speech and the planned incursion was set for a certain time, so as to disrupt the count. The agitators went ahead anyway, because their schedule was tied to disrupting the voting.

The reps had just retired to consider the Arizona objection when all hell broke loose. I will never believe this was not coordinated by Pelosi. These stupid talking points about insurrection are idiocy.

There were probably about a busload of Antifa types who led unaware Trump supporters into the Capitol after police opened the gates and doors. While there was probably chaos inside, outside was millions of people watching, even picnicing on the grassy hill.

Notice: The helmets, masks, tinted glasses, goggles, face masks, gas masks and spray paint.

These are ANTIFA and BLM, not MAGA.

The DC police knew in advance, and congressional security did zip to prepare, when congressional security answers to Pelosi and McConnell. This was a set up to stop the testimony from going forward, plain and simple.

It seems all of the GOP and townhall writers are turning on what was a counter coup. I consider the so called rioters patriots. And the capitol police the stasi that got in the way.

I thought AP decided not to use the word riot anymore.
