@CoriBush And if we do not hold accountable those legislators in the House and Senate who enabled the coup on January 6, 2021, we are sending a terrible message to all those Black, brown, and indigenous voters. I'm with you, Cori Bush.
The more we learn, the less this looks like a coup bound to fail, and the more it looks like plain luck that all of our legislators and our vice-president were not murdered.
To Jack Dorsey, CEO of Twitter: too little, too late. You should step up and step down. Suspending Trump's account AFTER the Jan 6 coup attempt is like saying, "Gee, maybe I shouldn't have joined the Nazi party" after the November pogroms (also called "Kristallnacht").
10/10. The eight senators and 139 representatives who voted to overturn democracy own this attempted coup, forever. Led by Josh Hawley and Ted Cruz, they are the fascist faction of the Republican Party.
@realDonaldTrump Be a man. Concede. Admit the truth. Tell your supporters to STAND DOWN. A woman has been shot. Her blood is on your hands, Donald Trump.
