What do you bet Abbott will have a huge police force present. Abbott and tfg will be itching for violence. They are very sick men.

If people want to know what they can do to help, this is one way. Take all the photos and videos they can of each and every one of the GOP who go into that building and plaster it all over the news.

The Secret Service will not allow it.

CBS reported they would have an insane amount of floor space with guns.

Their deaths brought to you by the loose gun laws Abbott signed to allow anyone to have a gun at any time to kill anyone they want.
