DOMESTIC TERRORISM IN THE US CAPITOL
Right now at the U.S. Capitol “MAGA” supporters are storming the capitol, they have broken in and are invading the chambers. The legislators have been told to shelter in place in their offices and have been told they may have to hide under their desks for their lives.
The security and police are outnumbered but still have not used lethal force.
There are at least 500 “MAGA” supporters flooding the steps of the capitol that have not been forced to leave.
President Trump has not denounced the violence and only tweeted: “Please support the Capitol Police and Law enforcement. They are truly on the side of the Country. Stay peaceful!”

@lisa bednar: facts don’t care about your feelings. If an article offends you so much, I’d consider some anger management. I have great recommendations to help you balance your chakras!

The facts of this story are Completely wrong. The content is written out of lies from the controlled media that prints fiction. It is known and there is factual evidence that the same people who started and controlled all the riots stormed the Capitol. There is video evidence of people changing into MAGA support clothes and talking about how and what they are going to do once they get inside the building.
Every true MAGA Rally has always been peaceful. This should have never been printed in the first place. To much unknown evidence and to many one-sided opinions that totally offends many people.
