Arrest tRump!!
He is accountable to the riot!
Thank you to whoever picked those up to protect america's vote.
Oh now they bothered about ballots
security 👀🤯
And I bet none of them will sever time for there actions just be called hero’s
May be their intentions were to burn those electoral college votes , so they would ask for the election to be repeated, but because of thrill will god wanted them to lose the senate too, so the republicans better wake up and count their blessings.
Trump is completely to blame for the attack on the US Capital and for the death of that woman at the Capital!!
If ANY Republican dares object to other states, they're complicit in this criminal act of the current occupant of the People's House. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
I wonder if people of color would of done what these protesters did in the capital, would it be the same outcome?..ðŸ¤â€ÂÂÂ
Haul them off to Guantanamo for terrorism!
The Loser need's to leave the White House NOW.
Put an end to this Bullshit.
Hold up ain't this consider treason to assault the capital of the United States of America ðŸ¤ 
BLM do the same thing riots and breaks in the same way. But they do it to big corporations and small businesses. But they never did it to the capital of the United States of America though…
Either way both side act the same in my eyes. If Trump won instead it would of been the other side storming the Capital I guess.
These protesters should be called terrorists. Trump incited a riot. Police deserve a better President. They deserve one who doesn't incite riots. I will be relieved when Joe Biden takes office. I am sick and tired of Trump.
If that was a white cop and black/brown crowd , they would all be SHOT!!!!
By all means Mr.Cruz, Mr.Hawley….please continue with the seditious rhetoric.
I think base on the actions today, this event should be considered terrorism.
I didn't know the plan was to get the ballots and burn them 😂
Just count the ballots on PPV and let the money raised go to charity.
Republicans who kept agreeing with Trump and now say they didn't see this coming need to be voted out, they're idiots if they're not lying through their teeth.
I said before. Donald Trump doomed us all. I'm glad Joe Biden will take over and get things back on track.
I blame trump and the propaganda media that has helped him cause this bullshit!!! His supposed legal team that lied over and over, hey this is exactly what Flynn wanted!!!
Should’ve killed them the moment they stepped through that door. Fk Trump and his terrorists!
Nice 36:14 ðŸÂÂÂÂŒðŸÂÂÂÂŒðŸÂÂÂÂŒðŸÂÂÂÂÅ’
Is this the 1800s? Maybe they can find a more modern way to determine elections. Ballot boxes? Really?
We have the BEST senators for Oregon. Thank you Senator Merkley!
Lock his ass up!!!💩
Biden needs to call for a national andcomplete audit or a special election if this nation is to except and come together. Nothing less will solve this. Even democrats and their voters know that the elections are rigged. Big business lobbyists and special interest organizations have manipulated elections for years and now the actual vote is in question. Nothing less than Biden calling for audits or new votes will bring this nation together.
This is what Trump wanted his supporters to do is to storm the Capital and steal tne ballots now a women is dead from his greedyness. And bizzare behavior he shud b impeached chargef wit murder
Treason. They are all traitors.
Good thing thug Trump supporter didn't grab those ballots at the table
RETCHPUBLICON NAZI PARTY
Ok
Lmao yeah. Incredible foresight there. I'm shocked Dems didn't plant them at the entrance to the capitol to get them burned/destroyed on purpose. These guys are known to be coming for hours prior and you just barely rescued these things last second?
all fucking traitors must fucking hang.
-big george (probably) 1776
What’s up pussies
Lock em up
As someone watching this from outside America, I just keep wondering, How is a place as important as the Capitol so poorly guarded? It makes no sense. In some countries I've lived in, malls are more secure than this
