RT @deepakguptalaw: There’s understandably been a lot of talk today about the 25th Amendment and the Impeachment Clause. We should also focus on Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which disqualifies those who engage in insurrection against the Constitution of the United States from holding office.

RT @jslaternyc: Very important story about the security failure at the U.S. Capitol. “It’s like watching a real-life horror movie. I mean, we train and plan and budget every day, basically, to have this not happen,” said one former chief of the Capitol Police.

RT @StuartHumphryes: A fantastic window into another time period – this bustling photograph of merchants and camels at a Khan’s court in Homs, Syria, was taken 100 years ago by Frédéric Gadmer on Friday 21st October 1921. It is original colour (not colourised) 😍

RT @tedlieu: Leadership in the Senate and House are misreading the situation if they simply adjourn after we accept the Electoral College results. There is much anger among the Members & the American public. We cannot just leave without holding Trump accountable. That will only embolden him.

RT @MaxKennerly: Losing the U.S. Capitol during a key electoral procedure to a modestly-sized crowd from a publicly-announced event is not a "failure." It was a decision. They were ordered to not do what they normally would’ve done. We need a full accounting of every single official involved.

RT @AmnestyUK: Trump’s rejection of the US election results, incitement of his supporters and embrace of white supremacist groups have fanned the flames of chaos and violence.
This is a moment of reckoning for the United States.
