Does anyone remember when things were getting hot 1 or 2 Men guided or pretty much pulled Senator Charles Grassley forcefully out of the Senate Chambers that day. He looked either confused or acted strange as they were escorting him out of the room when all the sh*t was going down as they paused the counting of the Electoral votes that awful day. I looked for a video of that moment and would like if someone could find it and post it please? I don't know how to do it if I could find that surreal moment if anyone remembers that happening I'd appreciate it? It happened early like around 12 pm or maybe a little earlier I believe. There was something odd about that I noticed at that moment when I saw it and recall it now. Who were those guys and why did they immediately go to him because he was either 3rd or 4th in line of succession for the Presidency?

Edit: After reading Post #3, I agree.
