Something I Never Thought I'd See

 

I had a different post ready for this morning but I felt compelled to move it to another day because yesterday turned out to be a day that will go down in American history.  I spent the day with that tingly, nervous, jittery feeling that I had on 9/11 almost twenty years ago.  What I watched on the news coming from Washington DC was something I thought I would never see.  

I've known from the beginning that our president was not fit for office and I've been appalled as he unfurled one chaotic situation after another.  And I've been dismayed as his loyal followers became more and more irrational.  I admit that I've been a bit on edge ever since the November election simply because of all the people who believe a perfectly normal, completely well run election was some how fraudulent.  I watched yesterday morning as congress started the process of certifying our election eager to see a bit of history unfold.  I did not expect to see a completely different bit of history. A very horrible piece of history and one I will never forget.

As I write this, congress has reconvened and the election will be certified.  Good riddance 45!

  4. I'm with you. I knew the march would be chaotic but I never imagined this would happen. My question is, HOW did those people get inside a fortified government building, the very inner sanctum of American democracy?

  5. It certainly looks as if the Capital isn't very well protected.

  7. I woke up at 3:30 AM and turned the TV on to watch the last 20 minutes of the process. There is so much to say - words fail me.
