Presumably the building is locked. Perhaps it isnt. I dont have a clue.
The people inside are monsters destroying our way of life and pursuit of happiness. They are the destroyers of Democracy. At some point it will probably come down to us vs them.

Unfortunately, I think he is. He is able to get rid of (fire) anyone who gets in his way.
