I've been seeing lots of tweets about this -- how happy the police are to have the Capitol open again. All the smiles protesters are seeing.

The link above came from this tweet

One of the tweets I saw earlier from someone else, which I unfortunately didn't copy, said the police were clearly enjoying reading the notes and posters.

2. There's some mention of the tape in there, someone saying "they provided the tape" --

a reference to the fact that the tape the GOP is now trying to complain has done millions of dollars in damage is in fact the safe blue painter's tape they were told to use, which hasn't done any damage.

7. Estimated cost for SUPERVISION of tape removal is $500,000!

I'm guessing that the Kochs will go for a no-bid contract for that pile of gold.

8. Tell Walker I'll go clean the entire building for a mere $1million.

5. I like the palm tree in the first frame.

Then it was gone... but it was very funny.

6. The butt-heads locked us out yesterday and it was

really cold. When the huge crowds showed up at 5 p.m., I finally warmed up (via surreptitious snuggling). :-)
