After comparing #WV reporters unfavorably to national coverage of the state yesterday -- which is whatevs -- Governor Justice went live on Fox today

video.foxnews.com/v/622151877700…
Of note, the governor suggested America should just get through the next 11 days and does not call for President Trump to resign or be impeached a second time
Justice, who has spoken fondly of his personal relationships with President Trump and Don Jr.: "From the standpoint of the Trump family, there's no way they really condoned what was happening with the invasion of our Capitol."

From the story: #WVgov Senator Mike Azinger said he and the group he was with, including his sons and some friends, walked that way but were at the back of the crowd. newsandsentinel.com/news/local-new…
Also: antifa ate my homework

"Evans traveled to Washington, D.C., and knowingly and willfully joined and encouraged a crowd of individuals who forcibly entered the U.S. Capitol and impeded, disrupted and disturbed the orderly conduct of business by the U.S. House of Representatives and the U.S. Senate."
for anyone saying Evans just sashayed in, with cops throwing roses at his feet

"We're at the door now. There's cops on the inside stopping us now."
"The door is cracked."

"We're going in!"

"Move, move, move!"
