1/6/2021 – A Day to Live in Infamy

Like many of us, I tried to go about my work this week, but it was interrupted by the obviously attempted coup of this country by MAGA supporters. For me, it was an outrageous day, which is saying something after our last 4 years of Trump as a president. It is so real.

This fabric of our ”democracy has been under fire from Trump and many Republicans’, forcing along Trump’s agenda. He was nothing more than a dictator long before yesterday. A group of MAGA supporters breaching the senate and house chambers on the day Biden was meant to be voted in. The day to confirm election results is an obvious coup attempt.

While many of us who understand the implications of this weeks activities, we also demand justice. It is obvious, the difference in police officer attempts to this, compared to the very different response we witnessed during Black Lives Matter protests this past year.

I am incredibly disappointed in us as a country. I am disappointed in Pence’s refusal to invoke the 25th amendment, when it is so obviously the required response we need right now. Even now, we are fractured in out response to this white extremism, between GOP and Democrat representatives. He must be removed now so he can no longer threaten us with a 2024 bid for president.

Not that it will mean anything from a rural girl from republic land, I stand with the focus that Trump must be removed from office and NOW. Nothing else is acceptable. We must not give up on bringing him and his family and his enablers to justice.

I demand justice, NOW.
