This is what domestic terrorism looks like.
This is Donald Trump’s America.
Imagine the police response if these were Black people BREAKING INTO the Capitol.
If you don’t see white supremacy and a total threat to democracy when you see this, it’s because you don’t want to.
What should happen in the next 24 hours:
1. Clear the Capitol—as peacefully as possible, but in any case remove the mob from the seat of the legislative branch of our government.
2. Reconvene and finish counting the electoral votes.
3. Impeach in the House, convict in the Senate.
Federal law defines terrorism as “the unlawful use of force and violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segment thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives”(28 C.F.R. 0.85)

Ruby Bridges may be widely known as the brave Black child who desegregated an all-White school in the South, but it was her mom who put the decision in motion.
That champion for change — Lucille Bridges — has died at 86. https://t.co/rntY0RbyMo
Van, thank you for expressing the sorrow and relief that we all feel. My hope is that those who hoped for a different outcome will take a moment to empathize with the pain so many of us have felt over the past four years.
I don’t feel compelled to choose between #BlackLivesMatter and caring about police lives.
They don’t cancel each other out.
We can and should work together in Love to reimagine every system [especially if injustice is at the root] that stands against Love.
The birtherism smear is racist. It's a lie. And it's disgusting. It's the epitome of Donald Trump.
Kamala Harris is an American. She's ready to serve on day one. Period.
Clear, accurate headline from @AP. Local newsrooms need more of this. Less dancing around lies and bigotry. Just call it what it is. https://t.co/c3PLWO3qJD
I remember @Stephharvey49 telling me that if I reflected on the way I taught 5 years ago and wasn’t embarrassed, then I wasn’t growing as a teacher. We can always get better for kids!
