Another day that will live in infamy…
Share
January 6 saw the one year anniversary of the terrorist attack on the U.S. Capitol, in an attempted coup by former President Trump and his allies. Fortunately, our democracy survived. For now. Oddly, there was no mention made of the attack in our local Carbon County News (which came out on the day of the attack), even though some Carbon County residents bothered to travel to Washington, D.C., last year, in support of the coup attempt. Like December 7, the day Pearl Harbor was attacked, January 6 will be remembered as a day of infamy. Sadly, Republican Senators are being hounded by Fox News talk show hosts into backing away from the truth. Here’s an interesting article:
