The Sixth of January

First they stole a national election, the most consequential election in the most consequential nation, then they censored our proofs of their grandest of larcenies, next they pronounced summarily that there was "no evidence" and there would be no investigation which might find elsewise, thereafter they denied us our day in court and dismissed our thousand sworn witnesses unheard, and finally they refused us our stay of ten days, a stay that by law the lesser legislatures might consider the question. The case of the most spectacularly obviously stolen election in the history of the free world.  

And then when we did all that they had left to us to do, marching on our national legislature unarmed and in mass and by right, to shake them awake to the truth, at the business end of what was among the largest peaceful political demonstrations in the history of the republic, conspicuously unacknowledged by the press, they gassed us and maced us and bombed us, they beat us and clubbed us and shot us, preemptively and without a declaration of unlawful assembly or so much as a warning. By the end four of our number were dead* including a small, unarmed woman 14 years in the service of the United States Air Force, she having bled to death where she fell from a bullet to the neck. They killed us and they libeled us as the killers. Within hours they declared us outlaws and determined to "cleanse" the country of us, "cleanse" being the prescription of a network news director -- cleanse the country of we who are the country, 84% of it. 

Blow it up: they had to blow it all up. They knew we knew, knew they had stolen the vote and how and by how much, and knew the law for putting right what they had done wrong, on the Sixth of January. And so they had to blow it all up, availing our unarmed army of peaceable patriots and their agents provocateurs and praetorian guard. 

A revolution is an uprising of the people against the powerful; 2020 was a coup d'etat, by the powerful against the people. The Sixth of January in 2021 is not our "insurrection" but the consolidation of their coup d'etat. And time will tell whether it's also the Boston Massacre for a Second Declaration of Independence.

* - Four patriots rallying for Trump and the Republic dead, one confirmed to have been shot unarmed by police. One Capitol policeman dead, not as claimed by The Party by violence with a fire extinguisher but hours after the fact and from heart failure, and assuming the Capitol Police were among the first to be vaccinated then not inconceivably among the first casualties of the killer vaccines. Then two Capitol police in the days after the Sixth dead by suicide, or reported suicide, and I leave it to the reader to infer from that. That accounts for the Big Lie of the "seven dead" promulgated by The Party, who would have you imagine the most of the country who voted Trump as murderers with the blood of seven against their souls on the Sixth of January, when not one died at the hands of Trump's ralliers, and the ralliers themselves accounted for four of the five dead on the day.
