You’d think they would recognize the sea of Trump flags and go onto the Capital steps, to try and calm down their fellow enablers!

What did they have to fear???

But I think there may have been a "safe room" that the rioters knew they had to leave alone.

I want an investigation for collusion with terrorists and people kicked out of Congress. Bohlert, Greene, Brooks, Gosar are all strongly implicated as helping the terrorists in advance. Come on Merrick Garland, get approved, then announce the criminal probe immediately. America has to be protected and taking out the tip of the spear is a good place to start.
