DC, Police have backed down many areas and retreated. Occupants have moved to the basement and protestors, armed and angry, are in the main halls vandalizing offices and chanting. Trump could end this in one tweet. pic.twitter.com/K1oP5bORu0

None of these #MAGA Trumpers care about the curfew. Oh, and many are heading to Mayor Bowser’s house.

Friendly reminder to Mayor. After first few days of post-George Floyd protests, precedence was set as hundreds of DC residents arrested for breaking curfew. They’ll be watching pic.twitter.com/lsRQ0qA6QO

This is part where Capitol rioters tossed the steel barriers and climbed the stairs. Police have advantage of height on stairs. Didn’t use it. pic.twitter.com/Y3GpxHDuot

I didn’t stop and take a picture of this. But yes they set this up outside the Capitol. It was a popular picture spot for those taking part of the attempted siege. https://t.co/sfX4uUHI31
