I've not paid any attention to this all day and come downstairs and R's got sky on 'they're storming the Senate!!! My WTF-ometer just broke.

It's going to take a brave hero to prosecute Trump when he leaves office. I hope we have one.

I'm watching protestors with "Jesus Saves" banners. This is like a montage from the beginning of a dystopian film.

Mayor Bowser had imposed a city wide curfew on D.C.

Shots fired, one woman wheeled out bloodied and having CPR. Smoke seems to be pouring out. There are some journalists tweeting from inside. They've been moved to a safe area.

Jesus. I wonder if the joke's gone far enough yet.

Oh, calls to the Defence Department to deploy the National Guard were denied.

edit: they're denying they denied, said they had just been thinking about it, and they are now on their way.

Where are you getting that from? CNN aren't reporting it yet

If this doesn’t turn Republicans against Trump then nothing will.

It's on Twitter and Sky are reporting it as 'uncorroborated' from a journalist they have somewhere in the crowd. I trust Twitter about as much as I trust Trump. Unless it's Dunty, obvs.

Yeah the twitter rumour mill is at 110% on the reactor.

Yeah, they made it sound like it's a protestor. They also said the national guard was en route.

They were probably invited and encouraged.

It's mental. And so clearly white privilege in action. Can you imagine if a BLM protest did this? Where are the police and army? Where's the tear gas and rubber bullets?

They’ve got to stop calling them protestors

The Defense Department refused a request for aid, but the Democratic governor of Virginia, Ralph Northam, said he was sending National Guard troops and state troopers to DC to respond to the violent situation at the Capitol.

I c&p'd that. Soz, lazy.

Wow. So a neighbouring democrat state had to step in. Fuuuck.
