I was in the House gallery when Trump’s incited mob stormed the Capitol. 🧵 1/5
I remember consoling my friend and colleague who had just spoken to her family. I remember telling my fellow members to take off their pins so we couldn’t be identified. My Ranger training kicked in and I remember gripping my pen to use as a weapon if necessary. 2/5
Trump’s third indictment marks another somber and serious day. In America, nobody is above the law, including a former President, and all are entitled to due process under the law. As Republicans and Democrats, we can take heart in knowing justice benefits us all. 3/5
@RepJasonCrow @PlannedTheRide What I find particularly enraging is that Jan 6 and everything since was so unnecessary. Had Trump been a gracious loser, he wouldn't now be under a pile of indictments and he'd have a pretty good shot at the general election with the entirety of the GOP behind him.
@RepJasonCrow Thank you for acting to defend and protect congress reps on Jan 6th. Images, like those of others' resistance, encouraged me to believe the seditionists would fail.
@RepJasonCrow Rangers Lead The Way
@RepJasonCrow I remember sitting on the couch laughing my ass off at you cowering in fear because of an impromptu senior citizens tour
@RepJasonCrow Absolute soy clown show. Just embarrassing if it weren't so destructive as well.
