IED detonated by law enforcement at the Capitol grounds.
PBS said it was at the GOP National HQ.

Why does it take "several hours" to mobilize the national guard within their own city

The DoD refused to mobilize the national guard. DC is not a state so they rely on the federal government

The power of belief folks. Too bad it's only a gateway to the truth if you turn it off.

DC national guard deploys from the pentagon. Maryland and Virginia comes from the Governor.

Remember when Trump replaced the top leaders at the Pentagon and how that was no big deal? Maybe it was a big deal.

My understanding is that's a different one. There have been 2 identified so far (Capitol and RNC), and they are currently searching the Capitol grounds for potential other devices, and DNC HQ has been evacuated.

Great, shifting narrative that it's not the Ya'll Queda. It's Antifa pretending to be Trump supporters now.

Still waiting to hear if this meets the bar of attempted coup.

I know the MAGA heads will never be ashamed by any of this, but I'm curious as to how many people that voted for the dude even just 2 months ago are going to look back on this day either today or a year from now and say "my god... what was I thinking?"

DC is a federal district and so the DC Guard is under federal control at all times. Mobilizing the Guard from their support duty assignment to a law enforcement role is a change of mission which requires approval from the Department of the Army/DoD. That approval has been delayed.

You know why.

Those that voted for Trump are more concerned about snark posts on a MB.

VA and MD are sending in their national guard. I wonder if other states mobilizing made Trump's unwillingness to move untenable.

Future fact check. "actually, Trump did authorize sending in the national guard".

That cop taking a selfie with the protestors should be identified and charged with whatever the protestors get.

This is the endgame, this is actually probably leaps and bounds beyond what these morons actually intended to accomplish.
