Trump Rioters overrun the US Capitol

 

Inspired by a speech Trump gave yesterday according to CNN that Trump told his supporters to march to the Capitol and he would be there with them.  Four people were killed including one woman who was shot by Capitol police.  CNN and others are calling this riot an insurrection which only happened one other time and that was during the War of 1812.  The rioters broke windows and got in and they also breached the entrance and overran the few police standing watch.

Congress reconvened after 8pm to certify Biden's election win.  Nancy Pelosi, Speaker of the House, is demanding that Vice President Pence invoke the 25th amendment to remove Trump or she said she would call for Trump's Impeachment.

Securing the US Capitol

After the attack on the Capitol, efforts are underway to secure it for congress and for the Inauguration of Joe Biden. 1000s of Nation Guard members along with The Capitol and DC police have been called to provide security.  Fencing have be put up around the Capitol and the national Mall.  The National Mall wall will be closed so no one will be allowed there for the inauguration. The FBI is reviewing video, photos, and social media to track down people that participated at the insurrection at the Capitol on Jan 6, 2021.  They claim to have received lots of tips that will help them find the perpetrators.  Alerts have gone out to secure all 50 state capitols because of alleged planned attacks on them.   Trump recently gave a speech saying that people that do violence and vandalism are not his followers.  He basically called for calm during the speech.  He did not apologize for the remarks he made at the January 6th rally which incited the insurrecti...

Trump Speaks - Too Little To Late?

  It's good that Trump made this speech to the country and for his base to know that violence is unacceptable.  He did not apologize for what he did and said at that Jan. 6th rally but this is good to calm people down.

The Nation moves on after Trump Insurrection

It has been 2 days since the Trump Insurrection where Trump demonstrators overran US Capitol Police and got into the US Capitol.  Nancy Pelosi wanted Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment but that's not likely.  The House has drafted Articles of Impeachment charging Trump with Inciting a Riot.  Votes as early as next Monday may happen. Trump divided this nation.  Will Biden Unify it?  Trump supporters have been brainwashed into believing that the election was rigged and stolen from Trump.  I don't see them easily supporting Biden and his goals for the country. We can't let go of what Trump and his minions in the Senate and House did.  Their actions led to this riot.  Time for Trump to bow out.  He needs to lay low until his time runs out.  It's good that this happened now as opposed to months ago.  Trump only has 12 more days as President.  Good riddance when he leaves!!
