He claims that the "fake news media" has stolen the election.
"Fight for Trump!" the crowd chants.
This is what the start of an attempted coup looks like.
This is straight out of the ultranationalist playbook, creating a myth of "real" citizens versus traitors.

Notable theme is the constant assault on both the media and democracy itself.
Pay attention to the close relationship between Trump's base and hate groups like the Proud Boys. The mask is off.
Proud Boys founder Gavin McInnes is there-- despite claiming that he quit the group in 2018-- as is Proud Boys Elder Ethan Nordean, who was fired by his own father from Wally's Chowderhouse for being a PB.
Beside him is Proud Boys Elder Ethan "Rufio Panman" Nordean.
Police lines have been reportedly breached, and mace has been deployed, but MAGA ralliers are not inside the building.
At 1:00 p.m., Congress is set to confirm the election results.
Completely normal.
There's a not insignificant amount of blood on the ground.
"You work for us!" the crowd screams at the police.
This is what an attempted coup looks like.
"You're a fucking traitor to your country!" one man shouts at the police.
My screenshot wasn't fast enough, but I'm pretty sure I just saw Proud Boy Kenny Lizardo, who accompanied PB leader Enrique Tarrio in court yesterday, near the front of the line.
I mean, probably couldn't get any worse than the attempted white nationalist coup currently happening, amirite?
They're not smashing people in the head, and no one's kettling the Stop the Steal ralliers. They can just turn around and leave at any point.
Except.... they're not doing that.
Protesters have breached the Capitol. They\u2019re outside the Senate chamber pic.twitter.com/I021tKliUD

The police here are trying to de-escalate with the Stop the Steal ralliers literally inside the Capitol building. https://t.co/Ovc39K0JXO
Some sort of gas has been set off. I\u2019m not sure by whom. Police seem to be trying to deescalate and talk to them. pic.twitter.com/CwB2PYdTMj

Kind of strange they didn’t have that on-hand already? https://t.co/W48rBp4osv
Breaking: US Capitol Police are asking for additional law enforcement for assistance, including federal authorities, per a source familiar.\xa0

Several suspicious devices outside the Capitol Building.
"Take our country back!" some are screaming. "Forward!"
Meanwhile, @RepMoBrooks is spreading disinformation about antifascists in backwards MAGA hats, when this is clearly a far-right coup, top-to-bottom. https://t.co/qTv472PcA9
HOUSE RECESSSED UNTIL ORDER & SAFETY CAN BE ASSURED.

Rumor: ANTIFA fascists in backwards MAGA hats. Time will tell what truth is.
Capitol Police Announcement: Capitol breach. Locked down! DO NOT LEAVE CHAMBER!
This is what happens when antifascists don't confront the far-right-- they're allowed to literally storm the Capitol Building.
The police are not handling it.
We know what the fuck we're talking about.
Listen to us next time.

The 13 people murdered by Trump's death row killing spree:
— Cori Bush (@CoriBush) January 17, 2021
Daniel Lee
Wesley Purkey
Dustin Honken
Lezmond Mitchell
Keith Nelson
William LeCroy Jr.
Christopher Vialva
Orlando Hall
Brandon Bernard
Alfred Bourgeois
Lisa Montgomery
Corey Johnson
Dustin Higgs
Say their names.
You can oppose the death penalty as a punishment without pretending that the people executed were victims or that carrying out those executions is comparable to murder.
As an example: Daniel Lee was a white supremacist who murdered a family (including an 8-year-old girl) by suffocating them with bags and then dumping their bodies in a swamp.
That's whose name @CoriBush wants you to remember.
Wesley Purkey admitted to kidnapping, raping, and then murdering a 16-year-old girl named Jennifer Long. He then dismembered her body. He also beat an 80-year-old woman to death.
Maybe we should learn the names of his victims instead, @CoriBush?
Dustin Honken was a meth dealer that murdered 5 people, including 2 girls under the age of 11, because their dad was set to testify against him on drug charges. He was specifically sentenced to death for killing the 2 kids.
