“They can try and try and try but the storm is here and it is descending upon DC in less than 24 hours.....dark to light!”

She had also retweeted footage of protesters gathering and wished “Gods speed” to those taking part in the protests and declared January 6 as the day Republicans “start winning”.

The shooting happened as tens of thousands of protesters breached barricades and stormed the US Capitol building as lawmakers meet to vote on certifying US President-elect Joe Biden.

Both chambers of Congress abruptly recessed on Wednesday as they were debating the Electoral College vote that gave Joe Biden the presidency.

An announcement was played inside the Capitol as lawmakers were meeting and expected to vote to affirm Joe Biden''s victory.

Due to an "external security threat", no one could enter or exit the Capitol complex, the recording said.

Protesters tore down metal barricades at the bottom of the Capitol''s steps and were met by officers in riot gear.
