Congress sheltering in place
Trump told his people to storm Congress and they’re doing it.
I’m sheltering in place in my office. The building next door has been evacuated. I can’t believe I have to write this.

“We will never give up, we will never concede” – break out the handcuffs.
Holms, I think he still believes if he doesn’t concede, Biden can’t be inaugurated. He has so little understanding of the government. He had none when he was elected, and he has none now. Of course, since concession is a courtesy, he wouldn’t know about it, because courtesy isn’t something he does.
Congress voted, the election was certified in the early morning on Thursday, and Trump, still claiming he won, said there will nonetheless be an “orderly transition of power” on January 20. As if “orderly transition” only refers to the inauguration.
