VP betrayed Trump, did not force counts to be based on 1 per state.
As first contested state was being debated, patriots + (antifa instigators?) invited themselves into the Capitol building.
A couple windows were broken to gain access, door was opened and protestors walked in and took a tour of the Capitol building.
Note, police opened metal barriers to "allow" patriots closer to the building initially.
People starting to speculate some of the Antifa instigators blended with the crowd and baited Trump supporters to follow them into the Capitol. But blaming is just for optics.
Congress ran and hid.
Unarmed girl got shot trying to climb over barricade, bullet hit neck and was fatal she bled out from what I saw on video. Her name was Ashley Babbit, an AF vet.
Protestors willingly vacated Capitol after occupying it for some hours.
Electoral College resumed, many cowards used the "violent protest" to back out of contesting state electors and to bash the violent behavior and to push ALL blame on Trump and his "incitement of violence through his lies and rhetoric".
Many Senate traitors who didn't object. About half of the house reps rejected. But ultimately no states were successfully contested. Pence declared Biden the winner to assume powers on 1/20
While hiding, rumor is they discussed enacting the 25th amendment against Trump. Two stories that VP said no, another said he was in favor of discussing it.
Democrats in congress trying to scapegoat and ostracize those who contested the electoral votes as traitors to the constitution and want to try and remove them from their positions. Cori Bush wrote a document demanding their expulsion. The document was dated 1/5, the EC vote happened 1/6. https://twitter.com/seanmdav/status/1346981060979150848
The right is suspicious that storming the Capitol was a setup because it was too easy and met very little real resistance until Captiol was breached, Congress had to flee, and media got their story. Played right into the Dems story of Radical alt-right
Media complicit to help spin the story to typical leftwing rhetoric.
Curfew was enacted to cut the event short. People confined to their hotels.
It's not a recount, it's establishing who is the True set of electors.
Contested states that had evidence of fraud sent 2 slates of electors, 1 set was from the S.O.S, the other was from the Legislator.
There are two options Pence could have done. He could have said, you have 2 sets, debate and tell me which is the correct one and we will count them. Trump wanted them to choose the votes issued by the legislators which favored him, because the S.O.S electors were unconstitutional and did not meet election laws of that state.
Another avenue was if both senate and congress cannot come to an agreement (I believe), the process then goes to each state only count as 1 vote and because Republicans had more states they controlled, Trump was hoping that could also give him the win.
However Pence circumvented all that by rephrasing his rhetoric to, "I will count the electors that a state has given me AND which has been approved by an authority of that state, meaning governor/SOS.
Pence was a coward and took the path of least resistance, arguing that he didn't want to do something that he thought was not constitutional and unprecedented, meaning never done before.
Slow news day, you didn't miss much.
First time I've smiled in 14 hours.
Trump gave speech.
Told people to peacefully march to the Capitol.

Pence deployed the national guard -disclose.tv https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/1346938473710759936
Rumor - is that Trump, family, and some of his trusted officials left DC to a base while they were counting EC votes.
Rumor - they plan to do something tomorrow? now that the crime has been fully executed and the traitors known.
Rumor - Traitors will go after Trump
FBI asking for tips/video footage to apprehend those who entered the Capitol
Social Media completely censored Trump
I am confused. How did Pence betray Trump? I am not familiar with recount procedures. Thanks for the breakdown btw.
