WATCH: Antifa, Protesters Leave Trail of Damage Throughout U.S. Capitol Building; Trump Orders the National Guard to the U.S. Capitol
__________________________________________________
By New York Post. Images and video from the Capitol show a trail of vandalism and destruction after the building was stormed by an angry mob of President Trump’s supporters on Wednesday.
One photo shows a shattered mirror inside House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s office — the apparent result of vandals who broke into her suite of offices. Beneath the broken mirror is a picture of the Bush family.
Outside Pelosi’s offices a few demonstrators can be seen proudly wielding a piece of the lawmaker’s damaged nameplate, according to a photo posted to social media.
A rioter was seen carrying a podium out of the Capitol Rotunda before police cleared the building.
Countless windows throughout the Capitol building were smashed by a furious mob who forced lawmakers voting to certify the presidential election into lockdown, according to photos from the scene.

Neo-Nazis Among Protesters Who Stormed U.S. Capitol
By New York Post. The throng of protesters who stormed the US Capitol on Wednesday included some neo-Nazis — including one man pictured wearing a “Camp Auschwitz” shirt.
The unidentified man was pictured among the hundreds of protesters who breached the building and forced Washington, DC, into a lockdown — sporting a shirt emblazoned with the name of one of the Nazi’s deadliest concentration camps during World War II.
The shirt included an image of a skull and crossbones, and had the inscription, “work brings freedom” — the German phrase, “arbeit macht frei,” that hung over the camp in German-occupied Poland, the Forward reported.
The image went viral on social media Wednesday, and sparked widespread outrage from Twitter users. (Read more from “Neo-Nazis Among Protesters Who Stormed U.S. Capitol” HERE)
