The #January6thCommitteeHearings are not about the past
They’re about the present-and the future
Because the coup never ended
In fact, it’s still going on today

Donald Trump knew in November of 2020 that he lost
Bill Barr and others told him
But instead of accepting defeat, Trump denied it, claiming he won
Big
Then, with the help of Rudy Giuliani, Michael Flynn, Sydney Powell and John Eastman, amongst others, they hatched their plan

We all know what happened next
Trump tweeted at his supporters
Republicans parroted the Big Lie
Steve Bannon & Fox did PR
Roger Stone got the Oath Keepers
Ginni Thomas & Lindsey Graham pushed states to overturn their valid elections
And-finally-the coup

#January6thHearings
After Congress confirmed on #January6th that Joe Biden was elected
You might’ve thought it would be over
It wasn’t
Donald Trump kept repeating the Big Lie
He still does
Now, if this were the only problem we could laugh him away
But it’s not that simple

Trump’s actions infected the GOP
Republican led states enacted scores of voter suppression laws based on the Big Lie
Some gave themselves the power to put their party in charge of election outcomes if they didn’t like the results (i.e. if Democrats win)

Congress became tainted as well
If it weren’t bad enough that 147 Representatives voted against certifying Biden
They ousted and support primary opponents of GOP members who dare to speak the truth
Even today they go on TV to call the #January6thCommitteeHearings a “sham”

Speaking of TV, right wing media is doing its part to continue pushing the coup
Which isn’t surprising because conservative media personalities like Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham and Steve Bannon have been involved in it up to their eyeballs

Plus, as Republicans push out members who spoke against Trump, or who wouldn’t fraudulently change election results
They are replacing them with “stop the steal” zealots
Because it’s a lot easier to have a coup when your people are in place to carry it out

And remember John Eastman
The guy who came up with the phony electors scam
He and members of the Wisconsin legislature met to discuss overturning the 2020 election results…
…in March of this year

So Republicans used the Big Lie to change laws & given themselves control over elections
Rallied around Trump
Drove out party members who spoke up-replacing them with loyalists
Focused their media to push a false narrative
What’s left
The Supreme Court

Ginni Thomas-wife of SCOTUS Justice Clarence Thomas
Pushed 29 Reps in Arizona to overturn Biden’s win
When a case about her actions came before SCOTUS
Clarence-her admitted “best friend”-tried to cover it up
And advocated discredited election law theory

The dry run is over
The lies are being normalized
Laws have been changed
People are being put in place
Judges have been compromised
And the coup that began in 2020
Is being perfected for full installation in 2024
DON’T LET IT HAPPEN
VOTE!!
