Look, I'm from the former Soviet Union. One of the reasons Putin, an alumnus of the KGB, the agency that committed some of the worst atrocities of the 20th century, came to power in 2000 and stayed is that people wanted unity rather than accountability. Chew on that.

[Ilhan Omar @IlhanMN]

It’s not possible to unite with people who want to overthrow our government.

No unity without accountability.

Pass it on.

@RepBonnie I hope you recover quickly and I’m so sorry foe the selfishness of others

[Brian Tyler Cohen @briantylercohen]

These are the people who spent the last four years telling you that they respect the cops and that Antifa was coming to wreak havoc in your communities.

[Jared Yates Sexton @JYSexton]

So. When are we going to talk about the fact that this coup attempt wasn’t spontaneous and was orchestrated by domestic terrorists in conjunction with this administration and with the help of complicit members of law enforcement and the military?

[Katie Porter @katieporterca]

Women. Accounted. For. All. The. Losses.

#BREAKING: Twitter has permanently suspended President Trump's account "due to the risk of further incitement of violence.”

To give you a sense of how 2021 is going

More Americans died from covid in the last 3 days than on 9/11, the Iraq war and the Afghanistan war combined, and that's not even a top 10 news story right now.

@tedcruz Resign, you sick sycophant.

[☭ @sleepisocialist]

The multiple bombs, zipties, guns and hostage plans have really been overlooked

[Yuh-Line Niou @yuhline]

Just going to remind folks how the police treated protestors in wheelchairs protesting for health care.....bringing this one back.

[Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @RepAOC]

Donald Trump must be impeached.

[zellie @zellieimani]

Let this be a lesson to you all. Police do not need deescalation or restraint training. They can restrain themselves against certain people. They just not going to restrain themselves against YOU.

Week 1... utter chaos, fascism, a big fire, stricter lockdown and a mutant strain of covid.

How capitol police handled disabled protestors fighting against abolishing the ACA a few years ago:

It’s less than one week into 2021....

This actually stopped me in my tracks. It is stark. After election night 2016, I heard someone say we’d let a monster in the house, and he was going to lay waste to it all. That what this looks like.
