Just more proof that officials in Washington never tell us the whole story.  They shouldn't have stormed the Capitol, but it looked to me like the majority of those that got in weren't sure what to do, and maybe were just a bit awestruck that they were in there.  It appeared to me that there were a lot of people with cameras recording than there were people being violent.  Looked like most of the violence took place outside.  Perhaps some of the were waiting for Trump to show up and tell them what to do.  Truth be known, I suspect Trump enjoyed putting a bit of fear in Congress with the crowds, but he didn't really know what to do either.  

I can no longer even pretend that I understand what goes on in Washington.  A lot of it used to be fairly predictable, but now?  No one tells the citizens the truth about anything.  We get lies and half truths not just from the Administration, but from everyone.  There was a time when I might have thought that Johnson, the new Speaker, was just a straightforward guy trying to do the right thing, but I'm no longer sure that is true.  Next week, Gaetz and company will probably try to oust him.
