AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

The truth of January 6th can't be erased. Watch the pardoned criminals brutally attacking police inside the Capitol and see what some call 'patriotism.' No spin, just facts. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/revisiting...

I dedicated years of my life to reporting on January 6 and exposing what happened. I was there that day, co-wrote a book, and published a series of major stories on my own, for Rolling Stone, and for TPM. I hope it mattered. I hope history will remember and understand what happened.

Sometimes I ask fellow Christians what in the Bible would back up Trump… his hate and division. They bring up when Jesus showed anger and flipped the money changer tables. They miss the point, he was angry they were perverting the temple, which is what Christian MAGA is doing to the church

This is always wrong. Including when it REPEATEDLY happened to each of us who opposed Trump. Including swatting attempts to my house. Including requiring security details. None of these folks spoke up to condemn that then. Speaker Johnson was silent. Media: remember this during Sunday shows
