BLACK LIVES MATTER
PROTECT BLACK WOMEN!
WEAR A DAMN MASK! SAVE A LIFE!
GOOGLE'S BLOGGER IS TRASH!
With the Blogger interface, it is getting harder to make blog posts. I am not kidding.
The way they rolled this interface out maybe the death knell for the once beloved media platform.
I am not going to lie, this is frustrating and I am going to make my postings shorter and quicker now.
We are covering the chaos at the U.S. Capitol where Trump supporters have breached the steps of the federal building. We heard that a woman was seriously injured and we got word that many of these rioters have stolen property from the offices of lawmakers. Four people were killed. The graphic image of a woman being rolled out to an ambulance was the result of the U.S. Secret Service shooting her after they gave warning to not proceed toward a protected barrier.
As of tonight, Twitter allowed the country's leader back on its platform. It will now monitor the postings and has placed a final warning on the leader of the free world.
Tweet respectfully or face permanent ban.
In a Twitter message, the President of the United States reluctantly concedes.
The decision to finally concede comes Congress officially certifies the rival as the next President of the United States. It also comes after Republicans and Democrats roundly condemned him for inspiring a violent insurrection.
With over 400,000 Americans dead from the coronavirus, the country is no where close to the end of this pandemic. The Pfizer and Moderna vaccines have been issued to a first wave of Americans. But it may be a little too late with new strains of the virus popping up in the United States. We have over 5,000 people die a day from the coronavirus. We have over 33 million infections in the United States.
President Donald J. Trump will go down as one of the worst presidents in modern history.
Tonight, the president speaks on the attack of the U.S. Capitol.
The president was finally allowed to post on social media. He finally conceded to his rival, Joseph R. Biden II.

He said that going forward he stated that "tempers must be cool and calm restored."
Trump called his presidency an "incredible journey" and say this is "only the beginning."
"To all my wonderful supporters, I know you are disappointed, but I also want you to know our incredible journey is only just beginning. Thank you and God Bless America."
Trump personally whipped up a mob to attack the very heart of democracy. The chaos at the U.S. Capitol will live in infamy. It will be the final stain on a disgraceful presidency.
The incident put Vice President Mike Pence's life in danger. It placed Vice President-elect Kamala Harris' life in danger. All elected leaders had to scramble to locations away from the destruction.
Many of the lawmakers had to wear chemical resistant masks in the wake of federal authorities using tear gas and pepper bombs.
There was destruction in many lawmaker's offices. Most notable was the office of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). The lawmaker's office was ransacked and looted.
Lawmakers had to take cover when U.S. Capitol Police and U.S. Secret Service agents fired upon the mob. A woman was killed after she tried to penetrate the bubble.
The whole ordeal lasted five hours and led to five deaths and numerous arrests. It also opened wounds. The U.S. Capitol Police treated the mob like it was harmless. There were videos of some of the officers just doing a "stand down" when it came to the mob.
This was compared to the brutal responses when antifa and Black Lives Matter engage in protests. The law would be in full combat and restraint mode. The videos of Black Lives Matter protesters getting brutally attacked by police is the one thing that comes to mind.
Second, the way this was handled was embarassing. The police were outgunned, outmanned and outsmarted by this mob.
Third, if it wasn't for Trump, Fox News and the far-right agitators of the junk food media, this incident would have never happened. It would have stayed only to social media. But thanks to Trump calling for his supporters to "pressure" Republicans into denying Biden the presidency, we have January 6, 2021 as the final moments in the president's disgraceful legacy.
The fallout is coming. Facebook has suspended Trump's social media page indefinitely until the transition is complete.

| The U.S. Capitol had damage. |
Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) was planning on releasing a memoir through Simon & Schuster.
The book publisher has formally cut ties with the Missouri senator. He was at the forefront of the uprising.
The sergeant-at-arms for the House along with the Senate resigns. Pelosi announced that Paul Irving will resign from his position effective immediately.
Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) announced that Michael Stenger will resign from his post.
The U.S. Capitol Police chief Steven Sund will also resign from his position as well. He will use his remaining days of sick leave once he steps down.
White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany had to the most difficult day. She had to answer for Trump. The press secretary said the White House denounces the events of Wednesday and credits Trump for ordering the national guard to take control of the matter.
Some believe that Pence had pressured Trump to do something. The vice president had to be stationed in a disclosed area for eight hours. It was an event that had Pence steaming out the ears. It's alleged that he confined in Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-OK).
Pence called Trump, a sorry sack of shit. He felt that Trump threw him under the bus. He directly told the president that he can't legally overturn the results of the election. Trump refused to hear that. Trump placed his vice president in danger.

| Biden said that Trump's decision to incite a riot will go down in infamy. |
Now it's appears that some believe that Pence will just finish out his term and limit his conversations with Trump. Pence said he will attend the inaugration of Biden.
There is pressure for Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment. Pence has not ruled it out but kept saying that he will allow the process of transition to continue. House Democrats have not ruled out drafting the Article of Impeachment on Trump.
Republicans may want to put down the "fear" and "patriotism" card. It's been played out.
It appears the Republicans continue to not take this pandemic seriously. With lawmakers like Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) refusing to wear a mask on House floor to Rep. Lauren Boebart (R-CO) carrying a firearm on the House floor, the Republicans are making it clear: "They don't give a fuck!"
Well they better. This U.S. Capitol attack better snap these far-right lawmakers out of that trance of fear-mongering and red-baiting.
The incident reflects on Republicans and conservatives. They are the party of extremism.
