Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham, one of President Trump's staunchest allies in Congress, criticizes the president's role in the violence at the U.S. Capitol, saying 'his actions were the problem.'

District of Columbia police have identified the three people who had medical emergencies and died during the storming of the Capitol.

Greeson’s family says he had a heart attack. They described him as a supporter of President Donald Trump’s but denied that he condoned violence. Incoming Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer said he’ll fire the Senate Sergeant-at-Arms Michael Stenger. Sites for Trump hotels, trumpstore.com and campaign store shop.donaldjtrump.com generated messages saying, “Oops something went wrong″ and ”This store is unavailable.″

In a family statement emailed from his wife, Kristi, the family described Greeson as a Trump supporter but maintained he was not there to participate in the rioting inside the Capitol. The family said they are devastated by the loss. She said at the Capitol: “The president of the United States incited an armed insurrection against America.”Democrats and some Republicans want Trump removed before his term ends on Jan. 20 with Democrat Joe Biden’s inauguration.

In a statement Thursday, Chao, who is married to Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell, said the violent attack on the Capitol “has deeply troubled me in a way that I simply cannot set aside.” He says the “ultimate blame” lies with the criminals who broke into the Capitol and the people who incited them. But he said that “does not and will not preclude our addressing the shocking failures in the Capitol’s security posture and protocols.”Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer is calling on President Donald Trump’s Cabinet to remove him from office following Wednesday’s violent assault on the Capitol by the president’s supporters.

Wolf also assures that he plans to stay on as acting secretary until the end of the Trump administration to ensure the Department of Homeland Security remains focused on “the serious threats facing our country and an orderly transition to President-elect Biden’s DHS team.” Kinzinger made the remarks Thursday in a video posted to Twitter, responding to the violent mob that stormed Congress on Wednesday in an attempt to stop the certification of President-elect Joe Biden’s win over Trump.He went on to say Trump “must now relinquish control of the executive branch voluntarily or involuntarily.”

USCapitol usacapitol despite its widespread mass surveillance, it could be said that the NSA is very ineffective and practically ridiculous, how is it possible that they have not prevented all this in advance? maybe they knew and let it go? very urgent judicial inquiry

LG is the poster child for a spinelessness. Dude flops more than a fish on the deck.

Where was Biden all summer when all of the major cities in the US were being burned and looted and people being pulled from their cars? Why wasn't he talking about sedition when the leftists threatened the White House?

Far too little, far too late
