#SeditionHunters - the Capitol attack has bursts of organized action, & then times when the plan goes wrong. Watch this synchronized reel of its first 23 minutes. In just 6 astonishing minutes, racing invaders take the Lower W. Plaza and Media Tower 1/
This amazing compilation as usual by @StevieG54099097 with timing by the #RealTimeLords.
The rush up the Penn. Walkway began at 12:53. Ten minutes later the Proud Boys are confidently strolling the front lines (note #Rufio), tho some Capitol Police in riot gear have arrived 2/
At 1:05 PM, the Joint Session to certify the electoral votes begins. At just that moment, a man on the tower begins reading a prepared speech justifying insurrection. You can read the full transcript by @LayanDoesDance here: 3/ docs.google.com/document/d/1tM…
Along with the political speech the insurrectionists carry the #CapitolJerichoCross to the front lines and shout "God brought us here!" But by 1:17, when this reel ends, the fast takeover has failed: police push back and set up barricades. There will be no simple walkover. 4/
The faceoff on the W. Plaza seems unexpected: the East side has to wait, and #MaroonPB is not happy. (h/t @RavenDragon2015)
That takes us to 1:17 PM, so there are still 4 more hours of stories to tell... Help us tell them - people with video skills, please volunteer! 5/
