The Capitol's attending physician notified all lawmakers Sunday of the coronavirus exposure and urged them to be tested.

Sen. Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania on Sunday joined Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski in calling for Trump to ‘resign and go away as soon as possible.’

Some lawmakers and staff were furious after video surfaced of Republican lawmakers not wearing their masks in the room during lockdown.Newly elected Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, a presidential ally aligned with a pro-Trump conspiracy group, was among those Republicans not wearing masks. Trump is now facing impeachment after having incited supporters who were rallying near the White House before they marched to the Capitol. The House could vote on impeachment in a matter of days, less than two weeks before Democratic President-elect Joe Biden is inaugurated Jan. 20.

A Capitol Police officer died after he was hit in the head with a fire extinguisher as rioters descended on the building and many other officers were injured. A woman from California was shot to death by Capitol Police and three other people died after medical emergencies during the chaos.

betting it was a Republican spreader--maybe one of the wilful mask wearers who refused to wear a mask even in close contact rooms. Who were they posing for?

In my idea of the State, the CIA & NSA leaders would also be arrested for not preventing this subversive aggression against Congress. With the powerful mass surveillance tools they have there is no justification. They either slept or betrayed the State. It is unacceptable.

Why aren’t they wearing a masks in the first place? They show up on TV that way

So?

What an irony: Covid caused by lockdown!

They should have stayed at home

Lol. Everything circles back to COVID. Don’t you know this virus expires on Jan 20th?

And the chances of any dying from it are 0.004%

Oh good god.

Wait didn’t they get the coronavirus vaccines first?

I truly believe that the entire capitol building should have been evacuated and completely COVID-cleansed. These rioters came armed with an invisible deadly weapon. They knew exactly what they were doing by occupying members of congress offices.

Impeach Trump now.

a sir jeffrey amherst type of coup
