So, the threats did their job, in a way?

I hope there is no violence at the Capital building, but the threats has been able to stop the flow of government. The Capital building is closedown and may be for a few days to come. Essentially shutting down and disrupting the government is their plan?

The voting rights and Policing bill were both completed that now have to wait on the Senate and that may take a while with the Reading of the bill and amendment process. Work complete, go home for the weekend.
