There are countless videos of rioters squaring up and fighting cops outside — with batons being swung, and mace being sprayed. Also not in dispute, Capitol Police officers lost their lives in the line of duty that day … and one protester, Ashli Babbit, was shot and killed inside. So, this wasn’t some kumbaya get-together.
