Former Vice President Mike Pence on Wednesday said that former President Donald J. Trump and his advisers had tried to get him āessentially to overturn the electionā and that the American people needed to know it.
The remarks, made in an interview with Fox News, are some of Mr. Penceās most pointed to date about what he experienced in the weeks leading up to Jan. 6, 2021, when he presided over the congressional certification of Joseph R. Biden Jr.ās victory.
The indictment portrayed an attack on American democracy. Smith framed his case against Trump as one that cuts to a key function of democracy: the peaceful transfer of power. By underscoring this theme, Smith cast his effort as an effort not just to hold Trump accountable but also to defend the very core of democracy.
I donāt understand this photo, is it a joke about something?
Thatās DC National Guard sleeping in the Capital Building after being deployed on January 6th.
If you were paying attention to the news on that day, you should recognize the pics. Literally the military defending the Capitol Building by sleeping / garrisoning there.
So we all know the military got the authority to defend the Capitol Building. We literally have pictures of the troops there.
I wasnāt paying attention as I donāt live in the USA. Just wondered why they were asleep!
