Rayburn House Office Building

It didn't take long before rumors of the mobilization of troops from the nearby Third Infantry Regiment made their way to Terrance Rickover and the rest of his inner council.

"Soldiers?" asked the Speaker incredulously, "he's going to send fucking soldiers to march into the Capitol to arrest us? Who the fuck does he think that he is, Charles I?"

"People in the White House are getting kind of nervous," noted Michael Nelson, "hence the tip."

"Would they even do it?" asked the Speaker.

"Well," replied Nelson, "that is the question now. Some would, I'm sure. Some wouldn't."

"We have five hundred armed people now," said Jacob Henry softly, "a mix of police officers, members of Congress, and staffers."

"But armed with what? Personal weapons and stuff from the Capitol Police stocks?" asked Nelson.

"Pretty much," said Henry.

"And could they fight tanks, or even simple armored vehicles?" asked the Majority Whip.

"No," conceded the mercenary officer.

"We have thousands of reservists sitting outside," said the Speaker grimly.

"So do they," noted the Whip.

"If it came to an all-out fight, I'd bet on our guys over theirs."
