us politics stuff, violence (--)
@Felthry a lot of armed pro-Trump people broke into the US Capitol building in DC and also some state capitols, I think? and tried to do an armed takeover
I think the latest news is that they were driven out? https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/trump-supporters-storm-capitol-dc/2021/01/06/58afc0b8-504b-11eb-83e3-322644d82356_story.html is a Washington Post article on it

re: us politics stuff, violence (--)
@packbat this sounds like the beginning of the end of the US, honestly
it may take a few decades or even a century but i honestly can't see any scenario where future historians don't point at 45 as the beginning of the final decline of the american empire
that's probably a good thing but i hope the instability doesn't cause too much harm
