WASHINGTON — U.S. Capitol Police have locked down and evacuated the Russell Senate Office Building after receiving reports of a possible active shooter, two law enforcement officials told NBC News.
The reports have not yet been substantiated and Capitol Police officers are still searching the area.
An email sent out to congressional staff warned people to move inside their office or the nearest one and to take emergency equipment and visitors.
It told people to close, lock and stay away from external doors and windows and to find a place to hide or seek cover if they are in a public space.
Most lawmakers are currently away from the Capitol and in their congressional districts for the August recess.
Are people really surprised by this? Trump was indicted for January 6th just before an election year. I don't condone violence, but it is prone to happen a lot between now and November 2024. Depending on the outcome, there'll probably be a lot of violence immediately after November 2024 as well...
Goodness help us.
Looks more like this may be a hoax, but still!
Not to mention they've probably heard or even realized that if they were armed or even just willing to swarm when shot at, they could have succeeded and might have plans for things to go differently next time.
Though idk if they believe the coup would have been the end of it or if they realize it would have likely lead to civil war.
It’s probably Gaetz rubbing one out in a scif. /s
Why the sarcasm tag?
Those gosh derned aborted transgender swimming marxist atheist an-queefuhs ar at It again. Lawd saaaaavve us poor Christ children. We gon get raptured and trump gonna get all you!!! 🤢🤮
Thankfully there are many good guys with guns there, otherwise this could have been a bloodbath
Looks more like a fake call. Minor version of swatting. Someone is pissed the Orange One got indicted again yesterday.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
