Rep John Thompson and wife dig in their heels, suggest he will not resign. Press conference right now. Image
Press conference interrupted by a Trump flag-waving woman in a vehicle who drove up to the capitol steps. Image
Oh, look who's standing behind John Thompson, agitator in-chief Jonathan Mason. He's the guy who self-admitted being solely responsible for organizing the blockage of 35W in the riots last year. Also was accused of being drunk while accosting Chauvin atty's at courthouse. Image
Thompson deflected and would not answer a direct question about where he lives.
Oh, Rep John Thompson is worried about people showing up outside his house.
The woman with the Trump flag was detained by Capitol police and an apparent social worker showed up and talked to her at length. EMS and Rescue showed up, but the woman was eventually transported away in the back of an unmarked squad.
Even the always-available Nekima Levy Armstrong and the always-available Jaylani Hussein didn't even show up for this presser... That tells you something.

The always-predictable unintended consequences of governing on feelgoodery like defunding, dismantling & weakening police.
Guess what? The war lords don’t care about your feelgoodery, and innocent people need to be protected.
You'll see more & more of this type of security.

And if you thought you had problems with lack of accountability from the police department, you'd better buckle up for this ride.

This is turning into another stand off situation.
Reportedly also a woman and several kids in the house that two suspects entered.
A male resident walked out earlier, but walked back in when police asked him who ran inside.
Sounds like police are going to tow a stolen vehicle from the location and then clear the area. No suspects in custody.
