I think he's just trying to maintain some continuity of government while they decide WTF to do.

Absolutely. Per the DB piece above, McConnell is apparently phoning the WH trying to get the staff to not resign overnight. Mike Lee looks scared shitless. Clearly about to withdraw any objection.

Schumer calls this the final legacy of the 45th President and an indelible stain on the country. "These were rioters and insurrections, goons and thugs, domestic terrorists." Schumer assailing Trump. Prior objector Republican Lankford acknowledges there will be no election security commission and seems to have relinquished any objection.

CNN calling Hawley responsible, right now. Pence (I know, I hate him too) on now: "To those who wreaked havoc in our capitol today, you did not win. Violence never wins. Freedom wins. And this is still the people's house." Live feed from inside: Mitch is back at it. Calls rioters "unhinged crowd". Paraphrased: "They tried to disrupt our democracy. They failed. They failed to attempt to obstruct the Congress. This failed insurrection only underscores how important a task this is for our republic." Says they'll complete the process the right way, and will certify the winner of the 2020 presidential election. "Criminal behavior will never dominate the United States Congress. This institution is resilient. Our republic is strong. The American people deserve nothing less." No applause for McConnell. Schumer: "I have never lived through or even imagined an experience like the one we lived through in this Capitol." Compares today to Pearl Harbor, says it will live in infamy.

Anderson Cooper right now: "These insurrectionists wore the colors of a very small man who once was considered the leader of the free world."

He can rot in hell:

Read the thread.

Yes, reported like 30 times lol

Crusading PBS reporter who struggled to stay calm as the thugs assaulted the chamber, interviewing them herself, back at it:

Video of Acosta on CNN:

Spier took bullets at Jonestown. Barely lived through it.

Wolf Blitzer and co. openly discussing the 25th. MSNBC calling this 'domestic terrorism.'

Ban him and 25th.
