claim: "violently storming in"

reality: police and security calmly opening doors for people to calmly walk in and take selfies.

Sometimes I wonder if I was watching a different set of events than everyone else that day.

I saw a bunch of people walking through the building like a crowded walking tour. I saw people holding posters and chanting outside. The news anchors were making jokes super lighthearted. I think this was CNN btw.

Then I went to work the next day and people were all freaking out, and everyone had the same term for it: "insurrection." None of us had heard that term before. I would have called it a protest, or a riot.

A mostly peaceful protest.

Funny isn't it. The further we get from the event, the more extreme it gets. Somebody on here a few days ago called it "the worst act of treason in history".
