Episode description
Since the events of January 6th 2021, we've learned more about what happened and more details of the nature of the threat. In this episode we break down some of the stories that might have fallen through the cracks or got very little attention by the mainstream press. There are allegations of fore-knowledge by some of the rioters, accounts that members of congress or their staff gave tours to some of the rioters that came back the next day. We are learning how close certain members of congress came to being captured. Also,the scope of police and military involvement in the attack. How these attackers communicated with each other through certain apps and the free speech implications of this technology. There were thousands of people that showed up for the protest and many of them got caught up in the moment of storming the capital and for that they should suffer the necessary consequences. However, there was a concerted effort by some to enter the Capitol with plans, schematics, and a mission to cause real lethal harm. These people need to be hunted down and brought to the appropriate justice. Lastly, we talk about where we go from here and how we get back to both sides working with the truth to move our country forward.
We also say the names of our fallen this week Stephon Clark and Casey Goodson Jr. And we highlight two organizations doing great work in the collective justice community, Pledge My Check and Showing Up For Racial Justice.
