COVID-19 The post Jan 6th articles appear to show a real mixed bag of characters and what some argue was American Reichstag.
- BLM / Antifa leaders
- Opportunists out for a stroll through the Capitol, largely non violent
- there are claims the Capitol, which was shut down due to Covid, gave Congressional staff approved walk throughs to citizens... who then showed up on the 6th [planned & coordinated]
- regional law enforcement w a day off, as private citizens
- some Trump supporters
- multiple people claimed white vans of Antifa types were bused to the Capitol; an acquaintance makes the same claim.
- professional Agitators
Rudy Giuliani posted multiple videos of Trump supporters 1) identifying Antifa & stopping them from breaking Capitol windows, 2) MAGA types jumping in front of Capitol security, to protect them at exterior gates, and 3) police & security opening gates & waiving Hooligans inside. (YouTube deleted them.)
I don't believe the shooter (killer?) of the female veteran Trump supporter has been identified.
The 3 other deaths were allegedly a heart attack, a stroke (?), and they've been unable to prove the 3rd death was the result of a beating or fire extinguisher assault.
