Not that this needs said, but this is not the American flag.
Not that this needs said, but the only reason these people are still alive is because they're white.
Not that this needs said, but this is one of the most shameful statements and moments in the entire history of the United States, and everyone knows it, even -45 who incited it and then went and hid like the coward he is.
He should resign in shame immediately. Every Republican who supported it should do the same. And whatever prosecution is available should be hard and fast.

When someone in my life stated, “all that fear and your life isn’t worse than it was when trump entered the WH”...
Me: 😳 (overcoming initial speechlessness) - Our tax effective rate went up over 4%, our family income went down, our kids are remote learning and haven't played with their friends in a year, and we haven’t left the house in 10 months except for necessity trips and some exercise.
Them: oh well, I mean besides that. Nothing blew up, like you said it would.
Me: 350,000 Americans are dead and 1 in 10 Americans don’t have enough to eat. That isn’t blowing shit up?
Them: I don’t think those numbers are real; only 6% of Covid deaths were actually from Covid. 98% of everyone who gets it survives.
Me: 2% of 330,000,000 is 6.6 million. Is 6.6 million dead Americans acceptable to you?
Them: (as they try to math in their head, utterly confused about the numbers) - Well, no. 🤔
Let’s change the subject because we’ll never agree.

The man needs to be escorted off U.S. government property immediately.
SHAME on every single remaining Republican. Special shame to all the congressional Republicans who will object to accepting the electoral college votes, especially considering that absolutely none of them truly believes what they're asserting and are willing to subvert democracy for a political advantage.
The hero is the person who leaked the audio recording of the call. #EndTheGOP
‘I just want to find 11,780 votes’: In extraordinary hour-long call, Trump pressures Georgia secretary of state to recalculate the vote in his favor-

Han vägrade vara i samma rum som henne när hon var bebis pga livrädd. Inatt kröp han upp i hennes säng. ❤️
@MrsOstberg Tennyson, I should add. Read in Swedish at the stroke of midnight every NYE and broadcast on national television.
Ring out, wild bells, to the wild sky,
The flying cloud, the frosty light:
The year is dying in the night;
Ring out, wild bells, and let him die.
Ring out the old, ring in the new,
Ring, happy bells, across the snow:
The year is going, let him go;
Ring out the false, ring in the true.
#lyrikfredag ett par timmar tidigt
Hummer i ugnen, ostron öppnade, champagnen korkad, ljusen tända. Gott nytt!
God Jul hörni! Jag fick fina örhängen, god mat och överexalterade barn.
Alla uppgifter godkända. Tenta på torsdag. Kommer faila så hårt med bara 4 timmar på mig.
Alltså om jag inte lyssnat på min man hade vi spräckt 50-gränsen.
Kanske fusk med en låttext men den betyder nog för mig att jag tatuerade in den första raden den dagen jag flyttade från Liverpool. #lyrikfredag
I Luxemburg: Nej tyvärr, maxgränsen i vår bankomat är 25 000, men här skriv under här så får du ett specialkort så du kan ta ut mer. Sverige: Nänä, inte mer än 5000 spänn.
