I honor the women who raised and taught me, born into a country that denied them the vote. I remember the women I have met around the globe, harmed and undervalued. And then I think of the women who will lead the world into a better place. Hope. Justice. #InternationalWomensDay
Brutal opening line of questioning from @SenGaryPeters with the head of DC Nat’l Guard.
Were you able to get immediate approval from Sec of Army to deploy in June when there was violence? “I was, yes sir.”
Were you able to get that same immediate approval in Jan? “No sir”
It's impossible to comprehend 500,000 deaths. I read about those who have died. Look into their eyes in pictures. I start with 1 person, then 2, then more, imagining a chain of pain so long it feels unending. To those who've lost loved ones, I send deep condolences. I see you.
January 6 is not ancient history. And neither are the lies that brought us to the brink. Those who peddled in these lies (or even just excused them) and thus stoked an insurrectionist mob, should not be allowed to slink back into credible discourse without a serious reckoning.
@DanRather Perhaps they can show enough evidence of what happened that day in a way that more will know why he should be convicted. My real fear is him running again. Not so much if he wins, but how ugly it would be.
Donald Trump must never receive another intelligence briefing.
He has repeatedly proven he cannot be trusted. He incited an insurrection, and has done more than enough damage to our country.
We know Trump will abuse any intel for his own gain. He must not be given the chance.
My story isn’t the only story, nor is it the central story of what happened on Jan 6th.
It is just one story of many of those whose lives were endangered at the Capitol by the lies, threats, and violence fanned by the cowardice of people who chose personal gain above democracy.
