The fascist coup of January 6

[wsws.org]

{Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell rendered critical service by withholding Republican recognition of Biden’s election for weeks, thus providing time and legitimacy to Trump’s efforts to discredit the election with totally fraudulent claims of ballot fraud.}

And now he and others, Fox News, attempt to shield themselves behind a facade of concern, Trump also reported to have finally admitted he lost. Words and actions have poor and deadly consequences that have resulted in numerous occasions from our representatives. The facade towards the lack of acknowledgment on this speaks loudly to their value of the citizenship.

{It has already been widely noted that the fascist gangs encountered virtually no resistance as they stormed the Capitol. In the most critical and vulnerable areas of the Capitol building, the police were hardly to be seen. To politically evaluate the police response on Wednesday, one has only to recall the violence deployed last June against a peaceful anti-police brutality demonstration in Lafayette Park.}

Ukraine. Enough said. If you're new/ish here and don't get that, ask, I'll be happy to inform you on it. Reactions to every protest involving colliding sides since Trump has been in power, the recent protest since Floyd's death, the inequality in biasness given favor to the fascist can only be missed by those who support them or live under the mountain of fake news.

{Throughout the past year, as it has conducted an unrelenting struggle against the ruling class policy of herd immunity, the Socialist Equality Party has shown in detail the connection between the ruling class’s inhuman response to the pandemic and the Trump administration’s assault on democratic rights.}

The WSWS team and the SEP have again correctly detailed that an event like this was in the making several weeks ago throughout a number of warnings in articles. This is the equivalent of presidents ignoring the memorandums of the VIPS group work. They have exposed the names of those who are most likely aiding this assault that could have been long ago surveilled to prevent. But I guess citizens and good journalist are only to receive this type of recognition in efforts of oppression.

!Draw the lessons of January 6!
