Get f#%ked, Dubya, you f#%king snake! You never cared as long as your Halliburton stocks went up! You permitted the housing bubble under your watch! You campaigned against LGBT rights! You did the Blackwater massacre! You got us into two separate wars!

Don't forget this.

Capitol police were much less friendly to anti Iraq war protesters.

Trump really screwed this one up. He had a much better chance in 2024 before today.

There were House only challenges to GA, MI, and NV, WI.

For GA and WI it was said that a Senator had withdrawn.

The irony is that without the storming of the capitol, they probably wouldn't be done yet with 2 more states going to debate.

And with that, Joe Biden & Kamala Harris are officially your President-elect & Vice President-elect of these United States. 13 days, 8 hours, 18 minutes, & 24 seconds to go, y'all!

They could have cut it quite a bit closer by challenging all 50 states and DC.

So because math is "fun," I just did some: not including the insurrection, the joint session & the individual chambers' debates lasted a combined total of approx. 7 hours, 59 mins. So ~8 hours for just 2 objections equates to an average of 4 hours of time used up per objection. Extend that out to 51 individual objections, & without any breaks or recesses, you reach final adjournment on Jan. 15th at ~6:20am ET. Add in the obvious sleep/eating/restroom/shower breaks & recesses that would have to take place, & yeah, a very determined Senator & Representative could royally f**k things up if they really wanted to.

They could probably reduce it to 2 1/2 - 3 hours per objection not counting obvious breaks. Obviously it would keep congress quite busy but they could make it. I guess they really just have to make it through Vermont by noon January 20. It's too bad for them that the law says alphabetical order.

After chaos reigns, the 'S' goes to the other word and Chao resigns.
