I am 100% here for the rawness and quiet fury of @RepRaskin
“I am not going to lose my son at the end of 2020 and lose my country and my republic in 2021 — it’s not going to happen. The vast majority of the American people — republicans, Democrats, and independents — /2

— reject armed insurrection and violence as a new way of doing business in America... This was the most terrible crime EVER by a president of the United States against our country, and I want everybody to feel the gravity and solemnity of those events... /2
...At the same time, of course, all of us are deeply invested in President-elect Biden and Vice President-elect Harris moving the country forward to repair all of the wreckage and damage of last year — on everything from COVID-19 to the economy... /3
... I was thinking in the way over this morning about the preamble of the Constitution — we the people in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, and promote the general welfare... /4
... and preserve to ourselves & our posterity the blessings of liberty do hereby ordain and establish. We have to do all those things at the same time. We have to establish justice. We have to ensure domestic tranquility. At the same time we’re promoting the general welfare.../5
... We have a new administration coming to town that is ready to get America back on a road of progress.”
So much this.
Also, @RepRaskin called out POTUS for ignoring the pleas of members to call off the violence, instead indulging in his “insurrection tailgate party”
