If you love The 4th
of July,
never forget The 6th of January.
~ Facebook user Stewart Safran, 4 July, 2021
On June 30, 2021, the New York Times
released a powerful video for their "Visual
Investigations" series titled, "Day of Rage: An
In-Depth Look at How a Mob Stormed the Capitol." It provides
the most detailed review yet of the "peaceful tourists" and "great
patriots" (or, alternatively, antifa/Black Lives Matter et al. masquerading as
supporters of the former guy) who
stormed U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. Six months in the
making, the video is well worth the time and the bandwidth to
watch it.
Here's the direct YouTube link,
in case the embedded video above does not work.
Here is the link on the New York Times web site, which also provides links to previous Visual
Investigations.
So far, unfortunately, the mango Mussolini who incited these "peaceful tourists" with his
Big Lie has yet to truly be held
accountable. And the "leadership" of the republican
party, aka the Grand Obstructionist Party, continues to do
everything they can to stymie thorough investigations of what happened on
January 6, while downplaying the event or at least shifting blame.
Of course, the misinformed and the willfully blind will still
believe the lies about what went down that day, and many may say
that the NYT video is "doctored" or heavily
edited to make the event look far worse than it really was. Or the true idiots will say that it all really happened as shown, but that the
violence was justified because Joe Biden "stole the election."
Unfortunately, many of these folks are eligible to vote.
We who are eligible to vote in the US just have to
continue to outvote them, because American democracy has never
been in such peril.
If you're so inclined, why not help celebrate WM's Quinceañera?
