We're not noticing the word "insurrection" being used in the mainstream media this morning, even though that's pretty much what took place at the DNC's headquarters last night. A pro-Palestinian mob reportedly injured six Capitol Police officers, and a Democrat told Axios that it "scared me more than January 6th":
Andrew Solender (@AndrewSolender) ~ Capitol Police say six officers injured in the DNC protest, one arrest for assaulting an officer. Spox for one of the groups leading the protest says the violence was “one-sided” by police. A House Democrat told @Axios it “scared me more than January 6.”

The predicted number of injured Capitol Police officers who will be invited on CNN and MSNBC to tell their harrowing stories: ZERO.
Chad Pergram (@ChadPergram) ~ All House Office Buildings Locked Down. No exit or entry due to pro-Palestinian demonstration on Capitol Hill. From USCP: All House buildings: Significant demonstration activity, no entry or exit is permitted at this time. You may move throughout the buildings.
Yashar Ali (@yashar) ~ BREAKING: Absolute mayhem outside the Democratic National Committee headquarters in Washington DC. Ceasefire advocates who were protesting and blocking the doors of the DNC building are being pulled off, thrown down, and arrested by law enforcement.

Anna Paulina Luna (@realannapaulina) ~ I’m with my baby at my office and the Capitol offices just went into lockdown because of these clowns. Imagine being that unhinged. Nut jobs.

GOP Rep. Mike Collins thanked the Capitol Police in a way that might anger Rashida Tlaib, AOC, Ilhan Omar and other "Squad" types:
Rep. Mike Collins (@RepMikeCollins) ~ Thank you @CapitolPolice for keeping Democrats safe from their own terrorist loving supporters. Stay safe out there.
Ouch!
Oh, on the contrary, Sandy ... Rep. Collins statement was VERY funny - and appropriate - 'cuz it was TRUE.
Barb (@BarbGEO47) ~ Is this a mostly peaceful protest or worse than 9-11 … I am so confused by the media commentators. 🤨
N. Holmes (@Tiffany_Blu3) ~ Any of these people going to the gulag like the J6?
Most likely there won't be any pre-dawn FBI raids over this.
