Trump supporters stormed Capitol Hill to protest the result of the 2020 election. The rioting saw a call for Mike Pence to invoke the 25th amendment later on.
Social media was full of people expressing their opinions on the chaos. The feeling was one of anger at the different ways the white rioters were treated by the police in comparison to those engaging in the peaceful protests of BLM in summer.
People also took to Twitter per usual to make some memes about the siege. There’s no denying this is a serious political situation, however people were making memes as a coping mechanism to try and handle the chaos they were seeing in front of them.
Now, could you name a place with tighter security than the capitol?
Maybe the Krusty Krab secret formula or maybe your google account when you try to login from another device.
These are the funniest memes that sum up the situation at Capitol Hill:
