-------

After Trump fired up the foot soldiers, they are trying to storm the Capitol buildings to carry out their sedition in the name of Their Hero.

Here are some scenes from their violent, seditious behavior. Why they aren't being treated like the Black Lives Matter protesters is beyond me.

There are 4 Capitol buildings and the Library of Congress evacuated at the time of this writing.

US Capitol Police have evacuated two buildings on the Hill, the Madison Library of Congress Building and the Cannon House Office Building, where our crew is set up.

Cannon House office building -- which is massive -- is also being evacuated, per multiple sources.

Capitol police just went door by door, running down hallways.

Situation unfolding at the Capitol right now. The House Cannon office building has also just been evacuated @mkraju reports. https://t.co/gBMmutRSfx

Just evacuated my office in Cannon due to a nearby threat. Now we’re seeing protesters assaulting Capitol Police.

This is wrong. This is not who we are. I’m heartbroken for our nation today. pic.twitter.com/jC9P0YfSLQ

I’m in Cannon and have been evacuated. But it doesn’t matter. In less than two hours I will cast my vote rejecting the coup attempt by @realDonaldTrump enablers and accepting the Electoral College votes of Arizona. And there is nothing @POTUS or @GOP traitors can do about it. https://t.co/zfQemZwm9q

House GOP staffer tells me private residences on Capitol Hill are now being evacuated by Capitol Police

— Jake Tapper (@jaketapper) January 6, 2021

Everyone is being evacuated from Cannon as well (me included). I spoke w/ a Capitol police officer on my way out who told me a few unidentified packages have been found. He wouldn’t tell me anything else. https://t.co/qWleoYtx8L

Law and order? Not so much.

Here's a REPUBLICAN REPRESENTATIVE:

To those storming the Capitol - I am on the House floor and I will not be deterred from upholding my oath, under God, to the Constitution by mob demand. #StandUpForAmerica

UPDATE: Capitol is on lockdown.

The US Capitol is now on lockdown.

MORE:

Capitol Police were trying to push crowd back after they started getting more violent. Lots of people around me shouting, “this is it! take back our House!” and things like that. Captured some images: pic.twitter.com/IYL9TJMWcN

UPDATE 2:

"FYI - staff in the Senate press gallery just informed us that if protestors storm the Capitol they will usher us into the Senate chamber and lock the door," pooler @alaynatreene sends along to reporters.

Please stay safe all!

UPDATE: Sure looks like someone's serious about invoking the Insurrection Act. Why else would they refuse this?

BREAKING: A source tells me The Defense Department has just denied a request by DC officials to deploy the National Guard to the US Capitol.
