White House Press Secretary tweeted that President Trump has directed the National Guard and other "federal protective services" to assist with responding to the rioters at the US Capitol.

"We reiterate President Trump's call against violence and to remain peaceful," she tweeted.

At President @realDonaldTrump’s direction, the National Guard is on the way along with other federal protective services.

Thanks for the pics. I've seen that "Wolf Guy / Viking Guy" all over the place today. He was with a crowd of guys shouting "F**k the police!". I didn't specifically see Viking Guy yelling that though... Every time I saw him on video today, he wasn't talking.

I just saw him again a couple of minutes ago on the live feed below:

I did hear "F**k the police!" several times today via this live feed. The guys yelling it were dressed as Trump supporters.

“Newmax is speculating that some group (Antifa?) mixed in with the Trump supporters inside the Capitol and did the shooting....”

So is Dan Ball on OAN.

That’s what I was asking myself. When did they become rioters? Have they begun to destroy property, set fires, assault police / national guardsmen, rape , riot and murder? If the answer is NO, then they are not rioting.

Some are wondering if those who broke in were Antifa posing as Trump supporters and were wearing Maga hats. I saw a tweet by someone that instructed Antifa to wear the Maga hats backwards so they can identify each other.

Another group is trying to breach the Capitol from a different location. More tear gas deployed... flash bangs going off.

The guy reporting live (link below) is standing on the bleachers that were constructed for China Joe's "inauguration".

I expected then to charge the Senate and take Senators hostage until POTUS is confirmed as POTUS for another 4 years.

I have little doubt about this. Most of the "leaders" that you see in those pictures look Antifa for sure.

>> This is now bigger than president Trump

That’s right. They’re after us, and Trump was simply in the way.

The thread article called these patriots “rioters.”

This is not true. They went into the People’s House.They were not rioting and they were not committing looting or arson like the forgiven and supported ANTIFA/BLM arsonists and looters in places like Minneapolis, New York, Portland and Seattle. Many of those bailed out by the Biden campaign.

We witness the rebirth of a nation. And we also witness the power of the MAGA movement a populist movement that the politicians should no longer ignore.

If they do ignore it, or try to destroy it, they will rue the day.

The gauntlet has been laid down.

We are not going away.

I have to laugh at the talking heads on Fox news who are so aghast.

The people who seized the capital and ran out the politicians have issued a warning: “Enforce the Constitution”

And notice that those patriots are not damaging property after entry.

These talking heads called looters and arsonists in New York City, Minnesota, Portland and Seattle “protesters”

But those who seize the capital for legitimate reasons concerning the Constitution are worse than arsonists and looters?

What a laugh. Their tunes had better change their tune. The GOP belongs to the the populist movement. And they had better be smart about it. No more denial. No more acceptance of false special prosecutors, no more acceptance of false Impeachment, no more acceptance of illegal election procedures.

The lesson is clear. Enforce the Constitution. NO JUSTICE, NO PEACE.

Joe Biden and his criminal enterprise has reaped the Whirlwind.

HE will not be able to govern, neither will VP Harris. 74 million people will engage in civil disobedience.

The Dems have created this. Not President Trump. A salient fact that must be remembered and not forgotten.

We have seen a rebirth this day.And Republicans who ignore it do so at their peril.

We witness wonderful history in the making. And there was not a single incident of looting and arson among the hundreds of thousands of legitimate protestors.They just occupied the People’s House. Good for them.
