On CNN they're reporting that a woman is in critical condition after being shot in the chest at the Capitol.

Ari Fleischer blames the Y'all Queda terrorists who stormed the Capitol on those from the left who participated in the peaceful Women's March from four years ago.

Ari Fleischer
@AriFleischer
If you don't like what's happening today, maybe you should go back four years, look in the mirror and ask if it was a good idea to declare #NotMyPresident, declare yourself the Resistance, and boycott an Inaugural. When one side violates norms, the other side will too.

What is happening today is wild for sure, but try to not let it freak you out. Because it can't hurt you. And it will probably barely affect your life as you know it.

I am not saying this to be insulting or demeaning. Just to be supportive.
no worries. I take it in the spirit that it's meant.

I think he needs the police. It is a foil to BLM. Total BS but is a way for him to mind control his followers.

Otherwise its pure chaos.

Trump aside is everyone else like Cruz and team staying on board with this just for political ends?

What a group of deplorable stuff .

I am gonna guess this will all peter out. Wrists will be slapped. The "people" will feel like they have spoken and return to their hovels.

Then nothing will happen.

I would imagine with the kind of artillery these nut jobs probably have in the crowd they are being EXTREMELY cautious about any kind of lethal force. I don’t think race has anything to do with it.

I respectfully disagree.

also, look a few posts up at the picture of the security at the capital for the BLM rallies.
compare that to today.

Virginia is apparently mobilizing their state guard.

Could you imagine if state forces actually got into a fire fight with the national guard?
