Woman Trampled to Death – On the Steps of the Capitol
In our effort to make sure no one forgets the violence incited by Donald Trump and encouraged by traitorous shitbags like Ted Cruz, Josh Hawley, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Paul Gosar, Lauren Boebert, Mo Brooks, and Andy Biggs (along with others) we will continue to talk about the Qanon Caucus and dangerous rightwing extremists who continue to threaten our democracy. The NYTimes posted videos today that were presented in court yesterday where more charges were leveled at violent insurrectionists on January 6. The article and videos can be seen here. These videos are disturbing where a woman, Rosanne Boyland, was trampled to death in the crush at the West Entrance to the Capitol where major violence occurred. Now, let’s be frank, here. She was a protestor, who illegally charged the Capitol with other insurrectionists on that day. Ironically, she was carrying a “Don’t Tread On Me” flag when she was trampled by the mob she was supporting. Even though she was breaking the law and threatening Capitol Police, her friend’s cries for help for her are tragic.
We can never forget that day, and we must continue to remind the public that many in Congress, including those from our own state, are complicit in this tragedy that forever will be a stain on our country.
