Cruz trying to lower the temperature that he raised.

“You reap what you sow” is a cliché for a reason, Ted.

MTG trying to do the same

This is what the GOP asked for. Simple as that. They aren't allowed to play the "oh no we don't want violence" card now.

Told you so yesterday that the Trump crowd would storm Congress and take the Dems hostage.

They have no decency, no morals, no grasp for the rule of law.

They are fascists.

Well, there are security protocols that have kicked in to prevent them from taking the Dems hostage.

Where the hell is BLM and Antifa? Why don't they be useful for once?

BLM exists for no reason other than to protect black lives and remind the general public about law enforcement overreach. Antifa on the other hand...

There’s no way he’s going to be convicted in an impeachment hearing before January 20th.

Now conviction of crimes *after* he leaves office...

Yeah, I doubled down on my shares, but it's interesting to see some movement in an initially boring market.

exists to burn down Portland OR for no reason as opposed to stopping the destruction of our country.

This is a coup being carried out as part of a secret plan between President Trump, his Pentagon appointees, and figures in the shadows. All so President Trump can protect himself from prosecution over tax fraud and other pathetic white collar crimes.

Just like Q and the child smuggling/rapists. It's .... all projection. Once you accept that, you understand the bigger picture.

Assuming this picks back up tonight, where did they leave off? Did they ever actually vote on the Arizona objection?

Not yet.

I'm curious to see if any of the objections are withdrawn after today's coup attempt.

I feel more ashamed to be an American right now than I did the day after the 2016 election.

I think they have to finish the debate and do a vote on Arizona regardless but hopefully there are no more objections.

Has there been any word on when they'll reconvene to resume the certification process?

Per CNN, Cathy McMorris Rodgers has flipped and will no longer vote against Biden's certification.

I'm hearing a lot of arguments by Democrats, Senator CCM (D-NV) currently speaking as I'm typing, that will be used to defend the Electoral College going forward.
