The NBC analysts figure that the Congressional police simply didn't have the manpower to do the arrests in that situation. (I expect we'll have written facts on that tomorrow.) There's lots of video footage, there'll certainly be consequences for some.

Lindsey Graham, in the Senate, just now: If you're looking for a way to convince people there is no fraud, having a commission chosen by Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell and John Roberts is not gonna get you to where you wanna go. It ain't gonna work. That speech is hilarious. Another great speaker!

Rand Paul: No more objections expected to Electoral College count No more objections are expected as lawmakers expect to continue counting the Electoral College votes Wednesday, Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., told reporters. Both chambers of Congress were debating a Republican objection to Arizona's...

Nice link. The whimper is that Guy Fawkes exhaled when he gave up his co-conspirators, it is what Brutus and Cassius spoke when their plans to rule crumbled, it is Kurtz's last utterance when he finally realizes the truth of the world he lives in, and it is the end for all hollow men.

If you cite actual claims, we can look at them and see what's wrong with them. (I'm fairly sure we already did that for the tracking issue.) If you present the claims vaguely, we can't. You can't debunk a fantasy conspiracy for which there is no evidence; but then you shouldn't really need to.

Thank you, @Inti . Reading that together with his Twitter appeal to respect the police, this looks like the call to peaceful protest, which is legal. There are armed police inside the capitol; it's not clear (and I haven't seen a source confirming anything) who shot whom.

I have not seen any evidence that this is happening. Investigate this. It's been known for decades that once you raise the living standards of a populations, its birth rate falls. Western countries have had a "shrinking" birth rate for decades. To argue that to improve a country's living...
