Pres. Trump’s former defense secretary, Jim Mattis, is blaming the president for the “violent assault” at the U.S. Capitol, calling it “an effort to subjugate American democracy by mob rule.” https://t.co/c0hf8NlnET
The Twitter Safety team: “Future violations of the Twitter Rules, including our Civic Integrity or Violent Threats policies, will result in permanent suspension" of Donald Trump's account https://t.co/hvhaPWh1aM
Let me be very clear: the scenes of chaos at the Capitol do not represent who we are. What we are seeing is a small number of extremists dedicated to lawlessness. This is not dissent, it's disorder. It borders on sedition, and it must end. Now.
Peaceful protest is the right of every American but this attack on our Capitol will not be tolerated and those involved will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
The violence and destruction taking place at the US Capitol Must Stop and it Must Stop Now. Anyone involved must respect Law Enforcement officers and immediately leave the building.

After four years of divisive rhetoric, unifying the American people is a priority for the Democrats. Biden set the tone in November during his President-Elect acceptance speech. Tonight, Warnock reiterates the need for more social cohesion. #GASEN#BidenHarris2020#SocialCohesion
Ossoff hasn’t been called yet but he’ll likely win his seat. What a night! This seals Biden’s victory and will have a direct impact on the quality of life of millions of Americans. #GASEN#stacyabrams#ossoff2021#warnock#geogiarunoff
Democrats have taken control of the Senate by winning 50 seats, @DecisionDeskHQ reports.
Vice President-elect Kamala Harris can cast a tie-breaking vote, which means Democrats have reclaimed the majority for the first time since 2014. https://t.co/j5IO4DJrDM
Some are confident Ossoff will get the win. There’s a lot at stake. From Environment to Economic Stimulus to Medical costs and Insurance. Warnock is in. We might know tomorrow for Ossoff. #GASEN#Georgiaelection#Senateelection#dekalb#stacyabrams
