Rioters Breach Nancy Pelosi's Offices, Put Feet On Desks, Leave Menacing Note

Supporters of President Donald Trump breached the offices of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Wednesday after violently storming the Capitol building and clashing with police.
One man posed for a photo with his feet on a desk. Another image shows a threatening note written on a manila folder that reads, “We will not back down.”
According to The New York Times , a number of rioters entered the top Democrat’s suite of offices, flipping over tables and pulling photos from walls.
Outside the Capitol, protesters were seen with a sign reading “Pelosi is Satan.”

In a joint statement on Twitter, Pelosi and Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (N.Y.) called on Trump to demand that “all protesters leave the U.S. Capitol and Capitol grounds immediately.”
Meanwhile, multiple rioters posted images and videos of themselves inside Capitol offices. Other photos show rioters apparently stealing property, smashing windows and climbing on building scaffolding.
A reporter with right-wing commentator Glenn Beck’s media outlet, TheBlaze, posted a photo of a computer screen in Pelosi’s offices and then deleted it, according to The Daily Beast’s Maxwell Tani .
“BREAKING: I am inside Nancy Pelosi’s office with the thousands of revolutionaries who have stormed the building. To put into perspective how quickly staff evacuated, emails are still on the screen along side a federal alert warning members of the current revolution,” a screenshot of Elijah Schaffer’s tweet reads.
Schaffer later wrote that he was not “personally involved” in Wednesday’s disturbing events.
HuffPost reached out to Pelosi’s office for comment but did not hear back immediately.

These morons are providing the prosecutors with all the evidence they'll be needing for their trials.
Freaking morons . . .
All good with it Tess, but I want the ring leaders that whipped them up into a frenzy hoisted by their buster browns....!
Of course I do too . . . .
Social media is famous for low IQ criminals posting their deeds and then getting busted for it.
Trump will be in court so often that his cell will have a revolving door.
If I could only believe that Paula...... The asshat has skated this far in his life on attempts to hold him accountable.
The trick is to start with one charge that will stick and earn him years behind bars. Then file other charges that will keep him in court for years.
I copied that information from a post on a Face Book group I'm a member of. Now that the FBI knows who is....
This behavior makes me love my pets even more. Completely unacceptable behavior. There is no excuse for these actions. Yes, I am agreeing that this egregious behavior is atrocious. I do not condone this behavior from or to anyone.
Yeah, the guy who "left the note" sez he also left a quarter for Pelosi saying that was her share of the COVID stimulus.
Idjets - pure idjets.
