On January 6 2021, the Republican Party staged a violent coup attempt. Their armed mob invaded and seized the Capitol Building, the temple of democracy, held it for five hours, threatened the lives of every Senator and Congressperson, and tried to install a fascist dictator.

They called for the death of the Vice President and the Speaker of the House. They spread urine and feces on the floor and walls of the Capitol. They desecrated statues, smashed windows, killed a policeman, and injured over a hundred Americans.

This violent armed mob had been egged on, for months, by the sitting president, who had been supported by America's greatest foreign enemy. His media and Congressional enablers still, to this day, receive funding and propaganda support from Russia.

For the first time in our history, the treasonous Confederate flag was brought into the Capitol.

The ringleaders of this seditious conspiracy are still at large and have not yet been charged.

America was attacked by a criminal terrorist organization posing as a domestic political party, and supported by our enemies.

This was far worse than the attack from al Qaeda on 9/11/2001. That attack never threatened the survival of America.

Historians will be appalled.

The media wants to you move on.

Do not move on.

No foreign invader can threaten the survival of United States. That threat can only come from within.

It came within a few moments, and a few feet, of ending our nation.

It's impossible to exaggerate the danger we faced that day--and still face, with the ringleaders at large.
