Pompeo, Ratcliffe and O’Brien all got a similar message: it was important they stay on for the continuity of government. These well known former officials/corporate figures basically argued they didn't want a political crisis to morph into a national security one. — PolitiTweet.org
Kaitlan Collins @kaitlancollins
In the last 24 hours, Secretary Pompeo, DNI Ratcliffe and NSA O’Brien have all received calls from concerned former senior national security officials and leaders of major national security firms urging them not to resign, a person aware of the conversations says. — PolitiTweet.org

It must be noted this statement promising an orderly transition comes amid semi-serious discussions of the 25th amendment and talk of mass resignations. — PolitiTweet.org

White House officials were shaken by Trump's reaction to a mob of his supporters descending on the Capitol today. He was described to me as borderline enthusiastic because it meant the certification was being derailed. It has genuinely freaked people out. — PolitiTweet.org

Confirmed this. Trump is normally eager to deploy the National Guard when violence breaks out, but had to be convinced to do so today as a mob of his supporters breached the Capitol. Pence, who was in contact with the Pentagon, played a role in it ultimately happening. — PolitiTweet.org

Rand Paul on Fox News: "It started out with a bad premise, & by the people who are confused in the Senate & the House who think, 'Oh, Congress is allowed to overturn elections.' That was never appropriate. It's not a conservative tradition. And it was a big mistake to do this." — PolitiTweet.org

There are no more appearances expected from President Trump tonight after he simultaneously instructed the pro-Trump mob to go home while defending their actions, which were fueled by his lies about the election. The White House has called a lid. — PolitiTweet.org

Hearing that, despite today’s events, President Trump doesn’t want his Republican allies to drop their efforts to object to Biden’s win. There’s been some discussion among GOP senators about abandoning it. But Trump wants them to keep fighting it. TBD what they’ll do. — PolitiTweet.org

Well this is significant. The national security adviser, who often closely aligns himself with Trump, defends Pence and says he showed courage today, a direct criticism of Trump saying he didn't. — PolitiTweet.org

Without mentioning President Trump, former President Bush says, "I am appalled by the reckless behavior of some political leaders since the election...The violent assault...was undertaken by people whose passions have been inflamed by falsehoods and false hopes." https://t.co/3GLBaLVyd7 — PolitiTweet.org

The U.S. Capitol was breached today for the first time since 1814, when the British attacked it and set it on fire during the war of 1812, according to the director of scholarship and operations with the U.S. Capitol Historical Society. How shameful. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump repeats claims about the election being stolen from him but says, "We can't play into the hands of these people...So go home. We love you. You're very special...I know how you feel, but go home & go in peace." His former chief of staff said many are "domestic terrorists." — PolitiTweet.org

Trump has been more focused on Pence defying him earlier today than the chaos unfolding as federal buildings are being breached, per multiple people. Unlike Pence, who told people to leave the building, Trump has not and has ignored requests for a stronger statement so far. — PolitiTweet.org

Trump is being encouraged by staff to put out a stronger statement after his supporters breached the Capitol, but so far has declined to do so or tell people to leave the building. He's watching coverage from the West Wing, I'm told. — PolitiTweet.org
