We are as upset as anyone by the violence in Washington on Wednesday. The storming of the “People’s House” resulting in four deaths was an unconscionable act by an unruly mob. The D.C. mayor wants domestic terrorism charges brought against those that caused the destruction and we don’t disagree; but, where was this outrage for those that fomented violence and property destruction in cities across America this summer? Some are calling for President Trump’s impeachment for his rhetoric that inflamed his supporters. Instead of wasting time pounding nails into President Trump’s political coffin, better that Congress focus on more important issues over these next 12 days, like getting vaccines into arms and economic aid to the people hurt by the shutdowns.
