Thought For The Day (Which Will Live In Infamy)

Death Be Not Loud

January 6, 2023

At the behest of then (GULP!) president Donald Trump, crazed insurrectionists laid siege to the Capitol two years ago today. The crazed mob attacked law enforcement with bear spray, clubs, fire extinguishers and tasers. They beat officers with American flags and Trump flags. They were hell-bent on hanging Mike Pence, Nancy Pelosi, and perhaps all Democrats. They broke doors and windows, stole private and government property. Confederate flags were paraded through the Capitol. They literally shit on the halls of Congress.

Today, January 6 is a day that will live in infamy, no less than December 7. Remember, the Japanese who bombed Pearl Harbor were also proud of what they accomplished. The bombing of Pearl Harbor was merely an opening salvo to a conflagration, like the bombardment of Fort Sumter, the attack on 9/11 and more recently, Donald Trump’s attempted coup on January 6. Another date which will live in infamy.

Trump and his cult followers are proud of what they perpetrated on this nation. They believe that they are patriots. They call themselves political prisoners. Perhaps prisoners of war would be more apt.

This has been your Paying Attention™ Thought For The Day.
