I’m listening to U.S. Capitol officers Harry Dunn and Michael Fanone who were attacked on #Jan6th. They said we shouldn’t call this an anniversary, because January 6th is still going on. But we should tell the truth, which has not been told in full yet.

The more I look at this I’m moved to pray for my enemies and the enemies of democracy and humanity. I pray for them to be tracked down by a spirit of repentance. I pray for them not to be successful.

I pray for those who know better, who know lies when they see them and hear them, that they will stand up as the resurrection in word, deed, and commitment, and as living nonviolent witnesses against the violence, the lies, the greed, the racism, and the spirit of insurrection.

I pray that those like Manchin and Sinema understand that when you block votes on voting rights protections and BBB, you are an accessory to the ongoing political insurrection going on in state houses across this nation, suppressing the vote, health care, living wages, the truth.

I pray that ppl understand on this day & beyond you can’t separate the extreme, mean & politically violent policy agenda from the extreme, mean, physically violent action of the insurrection. This was not just Trump. Whenever ppl worship an idol, they first build it themselves.
