To be fair, there was some of that. That said, there seemed to be a coordinated "attack".
Suspicious packages planted at both the RNC and DNC to distract the police.
9:00 rally started
10:58 a contingent of proud boys headed to the capitol
12:30 a calm crowd of about 300 built up on the east side of the capitol - these are the people Josh Hawley signaled a raised fist to
12:45 a crowd formed on the west of the capitol
12:51 the crowd rushed the fences on the west side
12:52 at the ellipse the oath keepers exited and changed into combat uniforms and moved toward the capitol
12:53 rioters broke the the barriers
People brought climbing gear, military protective clothing and communications devices. They were delusional enough to think they could overturn the election. They still are.
