A great way to remember Jan 6th is to listen to Jack Smith's testimony.
I got to 2.5 hrs. I still need to finish it.
Every American should hear it for themselves.
And yeah, Trump is guilty. He should be disqualified from being president.

@hcrichardson.bsky.social details the road to Jan 6. Trump couldn’t accept his 2020 loss and still won’t. Ego and desperation pushed him toward lawlessness as it still does today. But one thing to keep in mind, on 1/6, democracy held—and it’s on us to keep holding it.

As required BY LAW, the January 6th plaque to honor the Capitol Police who defended democracy, is no where to be found. Literally, its whereabouts are unknown.
Mike Johnson refuses to install it, and the DOJ is seeking to dismiss the officer’s lawsuit requesting it be displayed.

When an oligarch fails, he will burn everything with him. We're seeing it now with the orange oligarch. He's clearly on the way out mortally, and he's rushing whatever he can at this point, but he's going to destroy everything he can on the way out. No one seems willing to step up and stop him.

Valero Energy is up more than 9% today. Why? Because it owns Gulf refineries built for Venezuelan heavy crude.
This is the same reason why MAGA billionaire Paul Singer profited from the U.S. military raid.

No country is positioned to militarily stop trump from taking over Greenland or Cuba. China could theoretically challenge the U.S. militarily but, they're too pragmatic and focused on Taiwan. Russia is busy in Ukraine & Europe doesn't have the fire power.
