What was the officer wearing? A yarmulka?

Probably under his riot helmet.

Capitol Police said six officers were treated for minor injuries and one protester was arrested for assaulting an officer. Video posted on social media showed shoving and scuffles as police moved in.

6 Cops injured.

ABC says 150 arrests. That would be about half the protestors.

What, nobody did God's Work? No protesters shot and killed?

Was anyone physically breaking through a barrier to attack the congressman inside? If so they should have eaten lead.

I would say that the mob needed some social workers to come and calm it down, but the mob was probably mostly comprised of social workers.

Not sure how many presidential elections were put on hold because of this, either.

Wait, yes I do.

The Capitol Police clearly allowed people to take selfies.

This must be a new policy, they used to arrest and kill people for doing this.
