Absolutely fascinating thread as @jsralton & others track down the identity of key players in the Capitol Hill breach.
Including highly decorated ex-members of the military.
The double wrist ties, tasers, discarded weapons all show an intention to go much further than they got

And when you think about it rather cowardly. Can’t even take responsibility for what he has done.
Who else were involved in the planning? Which mates of his?
There’s going to be a lot more doors knocked in in the next few weeks.
How high and how deep into the Trump establishment does it go.?
If the people involved in this insurrection succeeded where would the establishment face of the movement be?
I suspect not making the denouncements they are now that it failed.

These are the facilitators and no less responsible.

These people in the smart suits, respectable hair cuts, and political positions are RESPONSIBLE for feeding the storylines and decay that led to this act of sedition. https://t.co/x6gm0d7RHo

Trump is today disowned as an aberration
In truth he is the culmination of how the US Right has been going for yearshttps://t.co/nw8fy7gDyH

When Ashli Babbitt was murdered by the police, the media highlighted her status as a Air Force veteran
... & largely ignored her property destruction charges & 3 restraining orders
Peaceful process my arse.
The Capitol staff must have been terrified..and the clear intention to incite sedition by Trump et al just before it is also shown.
And 45% of Republican voters polled thought it was OK https://t.co/PqaAtKZ1ZM

In light of this serious cyber attack and this being the second in a row that I've heard in the past few weeks, I'd like to take this moment to talk about the cyber attack known as #phishing so that others do not fall prey to it and stay safe online.

Phishing is usually a means of contacting you by impersonation to gather data, oversimplifying it. This can happen in several ways:
1. URL similarities: Usually when people visit a webpage, most people never check the URL (Uniform Resource Locator). For example, a fake URL of

https://t.co/x0brAMyKgF would be https://t.co/HrdE9hklv1. Seem the same, right? No. I've replaced one single character of "L" in @Google with "I". Therefore, your entire data would be redirected to the server that is hosting GOOGIE, instead of GOOGLE. This is commonly

hackers perform cyber attacks. However this is only one of many.
Many people might forward you genuine links with small "add-ons" which enter your system like a Trojan Horse. A beautiful meme of keyboard cat on the outside but a vicious data-mining link on the inside.

There's also other means of doing this. And you might think "But dude, who's stupid enough to fall for it?"
LOTS of UNINFORMED people are.
2020 was a record breaking year for phishing websites and attacks as per @techradar. It's not just through
The 13 people murdered by Trump's death row killing spree:
— Cori Bush (@CoriBush) January 17, 2021
Daniel Lee
Wesley Purkey
Dustin Honken
Lezmond Mitchell
Keith Nelson
William LeCroy Jr.
Christopher Vialva
Orlando Hall
Brandon Bernard
Alfred Bourgeois
Lisa Montgomery
Corey Johnson
Dustin Higgs
Say their names.
You can oppose the death penalty as a punishment without pretending that the people executed were victims or that carrying out those executions is comparable to murder.
As an example: Daniel Lee was a white supremacist who murdered a family (including an 8-year-old girl) by suffocating them with bags and then dumping their bodies in a swamp.
That's whose name @CoriBush wants you to remember.
Wesley Purkey admitted to kidnapping, raping, and then murdering a 16-year-old girl named Jennifer Long. He then dismembered her body. He also beat an 80-year-old woman to death.
Maybe we should learn the names of his victims instead, @CoriBush?
Dustin Honken was a meth dealer that murdered 5 people, including 2 girls under the age of 11, because their dad was set to testify against him on drug charges. He was specifically sentenced to death for killing the 2 kids.
In the United States, car accidents are one of the leading causes of death and injury for children under the age of 18. https://t.co/RrYVtaoFRd 2/
A few years ago my family and I were driving from visiting relatives in Texas when we were stuck in traffic on the I-10. We were at a complete dead stop when a woman (texting) in a Suburban hit us at 70 mph. She crushed the back of our car like a soda can. 3/
Thankfully, our two-year-old was in a good carseat and I absorbed the brunt of the injuries with a few shards of glass in my scalp. I won't show those pictures! While a high speed rail network along the Gulf Coast may have not prevented that accident, it could prevent most. 4/
Electrifying household appliances will reduce our 'dependence' on natural gas and transmission methane leaks, but the switch will also cut the number of carbon monoxide poisonings and natural gas related explosions that kill Americans everyday. 5/
