Zal @geertwilders de bestorming door Trump-supporters van het #Capitol duidelijk veroordelen!? #WashingtonDC #benieuwd
Geert Wilders Wed 4 Nov 2020, 08:34
President Trump: “Frankly, we did win this election!”. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Behoud van democratie en rechtsstaat is nooit een gegeven maar altijd iets om voor te vechten - ook in Europa.
Beangstigend om te aanschouwen. #WashingtonDC

Dat zal een rechter moeten uitmaken, maar dit is hoe dan ook niet een “vreedzame demonstratie”. Gewapenderhand Congress binnendringen is een heel ernstig misdrijf, en het is onduidelijk waarom er geen of weinig arrestaties zijn

@SophieintVeld Revolutionairen?
Sophie in 't Veld (D66) Wed 6 Jan 2021, 23:01
@janeikelboom “Demonstrant”? Gewapenderhand Congress binnendringen is geen demonstratie
Esther de Lange (CDA) Wed 6 Jan 2021, 23:00
Amerika-onwaardige beelden uit Washington. Trump geeft de term "slechte verliezer" nieuwe betekenis. Hopelijk blijkt de Amerikaanse democratie sterker dan dit!
Peter van Dalen (CU) Wed 6 Jan 2021, 22:56
This...stars and bars in the Capitol building. Caught in one single picture: the total division within the #USA .A huge task for @JoeBiden to reunite the nation
Samira Rafaela (D66) Wed 6 Jan 2021, 22:51
This is the result of toxic leadership. When leaders polarize & spread extremist thoughts, you get this. Rule of law & democracy should always be respected & protected. #US is so much better than this. It’s time for new & inclusive leadership #WashingtonDC

The @Europarl_EN has to express its support and solidarity with our colleagues in @USCongress and President elect @JoeBiden and Vice-President elect @KamalaHarris
David Sassoli Wed 6 Jan 2021, 21:32
Deeply concerning scenes from the US Capitol tonight. Democratic votes must be respected. We are certain the US will ensure that the rules of democracy are protected.
Liesje Schreinemacher Wed 6 Jan 2021, 21:59
Shocking and heartbreaking to witness what is happening in Washington.
My heart goes out to the American people who are seeing their democracy taking this serious hit before their eyes. We stand with you.
I hope elected officials and their staff will be safe asap #Capitol

@MartKok Als de President van het machtigste land op aarde dit op poten zet, heeft de democratie wel degelijk een probleem.
Peter van Dalen (CU) Wed 6 Jan 2021, 21:58
@hfalcke @cnnbrk Danke Heino! Ich besuchte fast alle wichtigen Schlachtfelder. Und es war nicht nur Armee gegen Armee, schon gar nicht in den Jahren nach 1865. Im Moment ist dies auch ein Bürgerkrieg, sondern mit anderen Fronten
Sophie in 't Veld (D66) Wed 6 Jan 2021, 21:48
@MartKok Vast wel. Maar het is een vergissing om dit te bagatelliseren
Kati Piri Wed 6 Jan 2021, 21:47
Autocraten wereldwijd vieren feest.
Mogelijk gemaakt door Trump en alle politici die hem steunen.
Melvyn Ingleby Wed 6 Jan 2021, 21:33
Yep, Turkey's Ministry of Foreign Affairs just released a statement saying it's following events at US #Capitol "with concern"
Sophie in 't Veld (D66) Wed 6 Jan 2021, 21:43
January 6th 2020 the Siege of Congress. Orchestrated by the President. This will reverberate for a very long time and far beyond the United States.
Peter van Dalen (CU) Wed 6 Jan 2021, 21:33
@hfalcke I visited the Capitol several times. I have about 140 books just about the USA Civil War. I see many parts of these books now live on @cnnbrk unfortunately
Peter van Dalen (CU) Wed 6 Jan 2021, 21:26
Wednesday January 6, 1864. Many incidents and numerous skirmishes around the country. Just replace the year 1864 by 2021 #USA
Sophie in 't Veld (D66) Wed 6 Jan 2021, 21:22
It is a big mistake to dismiss populism or “illiberal democracy” as something harmless and trivial. No country is immune to this, not even the USA
There’s an armed standoff at the House front door, and police officers have their guns drawn at someone who is trying to reach the front door cnn.it/3bfS7CM
Sophie in 't Veld (D66) Wed 6 Jan 2021, 21:15
Incredible, shocking images.
+3Pro-Trump protesters have stormed the US Capitol, where members of Congress were meeting to certify President-elect Joe Biden's win. cnn.it/3bfSMEg
Peter van Dalen (CU) Wed 6 Jan 2021, 21:13
Mind you, this is inside the #USA Congress!! The situation is out of control. This is unprecedented and reminds me of the very darkest years of the US history
Bas Eickhout (GroenLinks) Wed 6 Jan 2021, 21:13
You own this. Nothing 3rd world about it.
Marco Rubio Wed 6 Jan 2021, 21:01
There is nothing patriotic about what is occurring on Capitol Hill. This is 3rd world style anti-American anarchy.
