Are you saying that Jan 6 was peaceful?

Donald Trump told his supporters that day "if you don't fight like hell you won't have a country anymore".

> Spring, 2023 -  The January 6 Incident is still considered an "insurection."

What do you think it was? The republican narrative at the time was something along the lines of "It was a peaceful tourist visit". Is that still the republican narrative today?

> As it got less national press coverage, the event in Kentucky does not

> as some threats being made against the legislature.

> My how times change so quickly.

Or not.
