People are going to die today.

And I don't think this will be our worst day.

That's what's really scary about it.

Doesn't Trump basically own the Pentagon right now?

This answers a question I had internally: Who controls the DC National Guard and WHY THE FUCK HAVE THEY NOT RESPONDED?

https://twitter.com/steve_vladeck/status/1346904432617938945

It isn't controlled by the DC Mayor, it's controlled by Trump. The mayor and Pelosi have both called for their deployment but it's not up to them.

Well duh, the DC government has almost no actual power. Something about not being a state, they should fix that someday.

I mean we basically just got confirmation that Trump is trying to murder the legislature.

Not that anything will be done about it.

There's probably an alarming percentage of the country cheering on everything that's happening. But the GOP itself, as an entity, might not survive this and might dissolve into something else.

I give it two weeks, tops. (Assuming these riots end at some point in those two weeks, though it would be interesting to see Biden try to negotiate with them.)

Honestly it depends on how many people die today and how "important" those people are.

Wondering if they will reconvene Congress in a different location to finish the joint session. They don't have to meet at the capitol.

What would invoking the 25th even accomplish at this point? His supporters already think there's a coup in effect, so wouldn't that just add fuel to the fire? Don't get me wrong, it would feel good to see it happen, but I fear it'd escalate things even more.

Acting President Pence could order the National Guard to secure the Capitol and get the situation under control. That's something.

It would likely allow the national guard to be sent for one.
