For anyone who needs to hear this — trump announcing he is running for President does not have a legal impact on investigations. No one at DOJ watched that speech and ripped up all of the work they have been pursuing
@ritzs66@cathyrusson That is what I meant ..two sons! Both dead and his wife! If you listened to the podcast which focused on the situation. The deaths of both his sons were mysterious, but he cremates them so quickly, it’s hard to know the truth.
What will be America’s future? It's impossible to say. But it may be hard to remember today that just days ago a broad, diverse electorate in Georgia (Georgia!!!) sent an African American and a Jewish American to the Senate. Both men are progressives, giving the Dems a majority.
Traumatic events never feel fully real when I’m covering them. At home in the shower this morning it started to sink in: unhinged people attacked my workplace, my second home, because the President told them to. My God.
Now that the hatred, chaos, and incompetence of Trump has spewed out so pathetically, now that he's weak and an irredeemable loser, many who abetted and excused him will pantomime self-serving "concern." They must not get away with it. Shame lies on their heads just as equally.
The Capitol has passed laws of White Supremacy that enslaved, subjugated, and cheated Black and Brown people. Yesterday, White Supremacy again reigned. Look at the smug faces of the insurrectionists, and the obvious double standard from law enforcement.
To my colleagues in the press. Words matter. Do not use euphemisms to explain away what we all saw yesterday. This was an attempt to undermine American democracy incited by a defeated president of the United States. This was an insurrection, domestic terrorism, an attempted coup.
