Steve Scalise, Seditionist-in-Chief.
The treason weasels are applauding him.
Hey it’s Zoe Lofgren who was my rep at one point in time. 😻 she was the bomb during the impeachment hearing.
Boom! Biden’s margin one of the biggest
LARGER THAN REAGAN

Unsubstantiated claims of fraud, disproved
Our citizens did their civic duty
Will Congress do its?
Myth set in motion months ago
A party triumph without regard for the country
Once the place of giants
Have we become so small
Does our oath mean so little?

None can shrink from their responsibility.
The oath is no less broken when it fails to achieve its end.
Set another train in motion.
What about future elections?
Will we inherit the wind?

Andy Biggs likes to troll New York about its COVID levels when in fact his district, in Maricopa County, Arizona he calls the “fighting fifth” is actually fifth in the nation in COVID deaths.
He doesn’t like people registering to vote when the court rules they may

Lincoln said we have best govt we ever knew

Largest popular vote ever
80 court cases to overturn vote all lost in their merits.
In the most sweeping terms...Trump has lost.
We are here to count the votes. Let us do our jobs.
Applause.

I guess you could call that shade on my part to use this image when dealing with a white supremashit.
Brian Mast gets the balance of her time, asks a question and Madame Speaker lets his time expire.
Joe Neguse says world is watching us to see if we will adhere to our Constitution.
A country premised on consent of governed?
Biden was clearly elected who won in overwhelming numbers. No substance, no evidence, no facts as to why over 88 judges have rejected their claims.

The Constitution is our guide to our narrow duty today (cites exactly where)
Can’t substitute their wants for the will of the voters.
Simple task.
Heal this great nation.

Not sure this Mike Johnson is on my #TreasonWeasels list.
It sounds like gobbledygook to me… I am not following his legal argument, no doubt because he is pulling it out of the part of his body where the sun does not shine.
Calls Congress a “bulwark”. Cites Bush v. Gore.

Raul Grijalva is a representative from Arizona, and he is standing up for the certification of the Arizona electors.
There is no path.
One certain outcome is the weakening of our democracy.
Fringe conspiracy theories are not Congress’ job.

Let’s talk about Arizona.
No matter how you voted, this election was administered with integrity, transparency.
Arizona voted in hundreds of races this year, including House races for people who have been seated. Yet the 4 Republican colleagues question the Presidential race.

They do not question the outcomes of their own races, just as they have no reason to question the outcome of the presidential race.
I ask them to respect the voters and protect our democracy from future damage.
Yields back.

Another Arizonan, Paul Gosar, wants a forensic audit. Oh yeah, the @ArizonaGOP chairwoman is daft AF. She’s running. Discredited adjudication system… AKA “the courts”. Nice try against checks and balances, #TreasonWeasel. Mail-in ballots 400,000 were altered!
Also, I have a bridge in Brooklyn.
Calls for order. Some type of chaos. Dozens leaving the chamber. WTF? My live feed losing audio.
Members will take their seats. The House will be in order.

Reporters saying Capitol is now on lockdown with demonstrators outside the building. People are being ordered to stay in their offices.
C-Span says protestors are in the building while Lankford was speaking in the Senate.

C-SPAN has decided to roll former Senator Majority Leader and present Minority Leader #MoscowMitch McConnell who was earlier telling the #TreasonWeasels that the type of fraud that would tip the election did not occur. Congress has a limited role.
“The voters, the courts, the states, have all spoken.
If we overrule them it would damage our democracy forever.”
If we overrule them it would damage our democracy forever.”
The margin is almost identical to what it was in 2016. If it were overturned by allegations from the other side, our democracy would enter a death spiral.
Every four years it would be a scramble at any cost.
Every four years it would be a scramble at any cost.
The EC which most of us have supported would cease to exist, leaving many of our states with no say in electing a president.
Says McConnell, and
Now we are back live.

Back to Paul Gosar, who is muffling his words through his mask while nose breathing. Also stumbling over his words quite a bit. I dunno, does his tone/bearing seem a bit desperate? Why is he fiddling with his mask? I have so many questions.
Like is Congress still on lock down?

Calls our Constitution a “mere piece of paper” if we don’t uphold the law… I bet that’s going to be in one or more ads next cycle.
Now Congress is back on recess.
We are in the lobby and hear yelling. Oh.

The Proud Boys have breeched the halls of Congress.
They are marching down the rope line, moving stanchions to expand the path. They are screaming they are “taking this back”. Much whooping.
HOW THE FUCK DID THEY GET IN?
They are crossing from the Senate side to the House side.
WHERE IS THE NATIONAL GUARD?

Senate leaders and House leaders were hustled away from chamber, those in line for succession to presidency.
“The Capitol Building is under siege.”

And this morning started out so well.
Remember, Warnock and Ossoff are going to the Senate.
Merrick Garland is going to be Attorney General.
Breathe.

The proud boys broke in by force. Attacking a door where not a single person was stationed inside.
Good question… what security precautions were taken?

This makes the 2000 Brooks Brother riot look like a walk in the park.
Congratulations, #TreasonWeasels & #RogerJStoneJrIsASteamingPile.
This is one for the history books - the time the Republicans fostered actual armed insurrection rather than certify a duly elected President.

Police officers were attacked by the insurrectionists.
THEY WERE SPRAYED WITH TEAR GAS - THE POLICE, BY THE “PROTESTORS”
Tear gas has been deployed outside House chamber, and perhaps within. Pandemonium. A number of police officers injured in the melee. It’s terrifying - Wong

Nancy Pelosi is safe, reportedly.
I don’t know what the legal penalties are for this type of seditious action, but when all this over, each and every individual who has entered the Capitol Building illegally must be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
Oh, time for a fun fact: January 6 is Christmas Day in Moscow.
The Defense Department has denied a request for the National Guard to deploy additional resources to DC?
You know that this was a civilian leadership decision. Fuck yeah, it’s time to bring sedition charges against Chris Miller.

Seditionists have stormed the Senate floor.
Delegate Stacey Plaskett calls this domestic terrorism, and that is a correct assessment. Calls Kevin McCarthy’s tweet “disingeneous”.
There is a shooting victim, about 30 minutes ago.
She’s on the phone and then it cuts off!

Virginia troopers are being sent to back up DC police.

Now it seems the DC National Guard *will be* deployed, about 1,100 if I caught that correctly.
C-SPAN is currently interviewing Henry Cuellar, D-TX, who says a lot more police are arriving on the scene. He says that some are motivated by the Trump rally.

Where are the SWAT teams? 
With respect, does anyone seriously think that Trump will tell people to be calm and respect?
A woman is in critical condition after being shot. Cuellar suggest that she may have been shot by the police. He says people are slowly dispersing from the Capitol.

Donald Trump has incited this.
Even his closest synchophants, Marco Rubio and Brad Parscale,are disavowing the violence. Mike Pence is telling people to leave the building.

Jamie Raskin says he was in the chamber when the terrorists started ramming the doors of the House chamber. He was worrying for the safety of his family who were attending. Everyone is safe now.
He states Trump was asking Proud Boys and rightwing to come to DC.

RASKIN: Violent insurrection will be put down.
The election results will be ratified.
The American people have spoken.
We can not countenance these fantasies of violent insurrection.
“Protestors” should be dealt with “fairly” and by rule-of-law.

Violent attacks on the US government are entirely unacceptable.
Don Bacon, R-NE02, calls them “anarchists” and “not Republicans”… yet … I imagine he may be mistaken.
Now he’s talking about leadership qualities. Says “Trump must respect peaceful transition of power and make that clear to the American people.”

Rep. Bacon is a retired four-star general. He thought it would be a peaceful protest. Folks are very ashamed of violence against police. Thanks Pence for standing up to 45 today, in refusing to disqualify state’s electors.
President-elect Biden is on now, calling upon Trump to go on national television and “end this siege.”
Threatening the safety of duly elected officials is not protest, it is insurrection..
He is sad to see us at such a dark moment.
We will endure & prevail, now.

This speech is surely going down in the annals of history.
“The way is plain here. The way of democracy, of respect, of honor.”
We must step up. This is the United States of America. There’s never, ever, ever been a thing we… couldn’t do.”
God Bless America.
