A West Virginia lawmaker took video of himself and other supporters of President Donald Trump rushing into the U.S. Capitol after they breached the security perimeter.

In the video by Republican Del. Derrick Evans, later deleted from his social media page, he is shown wearing a helmet and clamoring at the door to breach the building in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday.

“We’re in! Keep it moving, baby!” he said in a packed doorway amid Trump followers holding flags and complaining of being pepper sprayed. Once inside, Evans could be seen on video milling around the Capitol Rotunda, where historical paintings depict the republic’s founding, and yelled, “No vandalizing!”

State House of Delegates Speaker Roger Hanshaw said Evans will need to “answer to his constituents and colleagues regarding his involvement in what has occurred today.”

16. I have to go back to WV at some point...

and I'm deeply, deeply dreading it. I've lived there going on 8 years and the only time I feel at home is when I have my friends around me or I'm safe in my home. That's it. I despise the place.
I'm one of those liberal elitist professors who tells her WV born-and-bred students to get out and see the world before they settle for living there. Why? Because we have idiots like this jack wagon, or the other knobhead who said he'd kill his own kids if they were gay (https://eu.usatoday.com/story/news/2019/02/13/eric-porterfield-west-virginia-lawmaker-slammed-anti-gay-remarks/2865439002/)
