To those who tell me that Trump only has 11 more days in office, I say that's 11 days too many.
He incited and fueled a deadly assault on our Capitol, country, and democracy. He needs to be removed immediately. We must impeach him right now.
Some of yesterday's violent insurrectionists referred to themselves as the "storm." That's a reference to QAnon — the racist, antisemitic conspiracy theory that drives so many of President Trump’s supporters. https://t.co/uBX4LdW0Po
The liaison between white supremacy and anti-Semitism: a Confederate flag in the Capitol, a "Six Million Weren't Enough" shirt in the streets. https://t.co/foO3gdrGsv
The man directly responsible for the chaos of today is Donald Trump, who has made it clear that he will do anything to remain in power – including insurrection and inciting violence. Trump will go down in history as the worst and most dangerous president in history.
Incited by Trump, these domestic terrorists not only launched a violent assault on our Capitol but on our democracy too.
They attacked America—all of us—and they must be held fully accountable.
Prosecute them. All of them.
@NAACP exactly what I was thinking!!! they shot a black man for coming out of his own garage and they dont do anything to these white terrorists, traitors to the United states of America? disgrace!
This violent mob & the President who stoked their rage must be held accountable. They should not be allowed to delay our democratic processes for a minute longer.
We have a Constitutional duty to certify the election. We should resume that work right now and finish tonight.
We will protect our democracy, uphold the constitution, and finish certifying the Electoral College vote. We will also use every tool possible to remove Donald Trump from office and hold him fully accountable for his crimes, the damage he's caused, and the terrorism he's incited.
