It's difficult to conclude otherwise when you know how much warning of precisely this they had and yet they chose to provide far less in the way of scary soldier police than there were at the peaceful BLM protests.
something very similar to this happened in germany some weeks ago when right-wing demonstrators stormed the german reichstag building and everybody wondered how that was possible. it was even announced. not a surprise though seeing as the police force is full of fascist and neo-nazi's.

@IdleRich Well it’s also possible that it was unexpected and is happening because of institutional racism.
But how can it be unexpected? The people and the president have been banging on about it for weeks.
Now this
The Washington Post is now reporting that the defense department has denied a request from DC officials to deploy the National Guard to the US Capitol.
We need a maverick vigilante who doesn't do things by the book to go in and start distributing some real justice - I suggest Dirty Leo to give them some gunishment!

America really is one big reality TV show. Everyone's watching this idiocy on social media like it's an episode of Big Brother or something.

the difference is coups are planned and involve the military as a rule. You don't just barge in and then sort of mill about wondering what to do next

Imagine if that's how you die... Getting shot storming the Capitol building on behalf of Donald Trump's ego... Christ.

During the BLM marches you had a constant feed of footage. It was really exciting. This only seems to have generated a handful is fairly dull images.
