ADD YOUR NAME: CONDEMN DONALD TRUMP’S PROMISE TO PARDON THE JANUARY 6TH INSURRECTIONISTS
Team, four years ago, Americans watched in disbelief and horror as a violent mob stormed the U.S. Capitol and attempted to stop the certification of our election, attacking the very heart of our democracy.
And ever since, Donald Trump and his MAGA allies have worked tirelessly to evade accountability. But we know exactly what happened:
First: Donald Trump incited a mob on Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington D.C., telling his followers: "We fight like hell. And if you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore." Deadly violence ensued at the U.S. Capitol.
Then: The House committee investigating the January 6th attack and the special counsel’s investigation disclosed new details in their probes, revealing as the violence began to escalate that day, Trump "was just not interested" in doing more to stop it.
Now: Just over a week before Trump is poised to retake power, he has declared he will “act quickly” on day one to pardon his supporters who were convicted and incarcerated – including the planners and leaders of the movement, found guilty on charges including seditious conspiracy.
Team, more than 1,200 people have been convicted or pleaded guilty to crimes that occurred on January 6th, 2021, and at least 645 have already received sentences to be served in federal prison.
But now Trump – who has called January 6th “a day of love” – is seeking to pardon insurrectionists as soon as he can.
<< Team, be one of the 35 Democrats we need from xxxxxx to add your name and condemn Trump’s promise to pardon individuals who attacked our democracy >>
