U.S. Capitol on lockdown under threat from Trump supporters. This is sedition in plain sight.
Literally Trump supporters are storming our Capitol. Trump and everyone else involved in stoking violence should face trial for sedition.
Trump supporters have breached the walls of the Capitol. Per @CNN police are firing tear gas. This is terrifying.
The Senate has stopped debate to be evacuated.
.@mkraju reporting Trump supporters have gotten inside the Capitol. Unclear if they are armed.

Wayne County Ethics Board on Monica Palmer:

"ethics board found that there was enough evidence to move forward for a formal hearing Jan 20th. There is also a formal complaint against her for violating campaign finance laws with her 501c4...could result in jail time."

womp womp.
Will pass long information as I get it. This is from one of the attendees on this morning's Zoom call.
Those asking about William Hartmann, she said no one has filed against him yet for him to be called before the ethics board. Palmer had several violations.

Because...Black votes. These people are pathetic and seditious on every last step. We will not forget!
"A county board that fails to canvass within 14 days after the election must give all of its documentation to the Secretary of State's office and Board of State Canvassers, which then has 10 days to complete the work and canvass and certify the results."

Michigan's Secretary of State is a Democrat @JocelynBenson - so that will be the end of this despicable, racist, seditious charade.

My take on the Pentagon: Trump fired Esper because he wanted to take back the spotlight Monday when all media attention turned to Biden. He didn't count on or care about other senior officials resigning in protests.

1/
When the openings came about, he did what he has done for the past 2 years: he replaced them with loyalists, in part because no sane or competent person will work for him!

2/
There is no grand plan. If you read Mary Trump's book you understand how damaging the concept of losing is for Trump. He's very damaged from his childhood and will do anything to avoid it. But he lost decisively and he will be leaving.

Just saw my first Trump “caravan” in New York - a grand total of 3 trucks, 2 of which had out of state license plates. Nope. Get your Klan shit out of our state!
Yeah Trump warned us about caravans in 2018. They’re finally here. Caravans of racist trash.

Vote them all TF out!
