  2. Seeing Things – January 6th Is Still Happening In Real Time – Liza Donnelly

    I’m serious today because this is deadly serious, January 6th Is Still Happening In Real Time

    By Liza Donnelly, Jan 06, 2026

    Above is drawing I did as I watched the insurrection unfold on television on January 6th, 2020. It was terrifying.

    Later that day, during a live broadcast, I did the above on paper, from memory, live on Instagram. Police officer Eugene Goodman was the man who stopped insurrectionists from further entering the depths of the Capital; I remember watching him, in awe, and was so moved by his bravery. He may have single handedly saved the lives of some Senators, Congress people and Vice President Mike Pence.

    For some years after that horrific violent coup attempt, we were hopeful that it was an isolated event. But as I began to see how Trump continue his election-denying, and more and more people were willing to lie about it and join his side, it was clear to me that we were in big trouble. I saw that what was going to happen was that Trump and anyone who attached themselves to him with these lies, was going to try to affect a coup from within the government. Then he was re-elected on more lies, swindling his followers into thinking he was all for them.

    We are living a slow, internal coup right now. Vote in ALL elections, protest and call your reps.

    The Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado has vowed to return to the country as soon as possible and she rejected the authority of the interim president backed by the US after it forcibly removed Maduro. She wants to return and hold elections.

    Many people in Venezuela expected her to return as the leader of the country after Maduro was captured. Today, Machado publicly praised Trump for capturing Maduro, who was an illegitimate leader of the country following the previous elections which he lost. But Trump sidelined Machado as a potential leader, saying she has no support in her country; a flat out lie. She is hugely popular. Some are suggesting that because Machado was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize last year (for her opposition work against Maduro), and Trump desperately wanted to get it, that his ego will not let her return to the country. Trump wants to run Venezuela, and hopes to threaten those in power now to do what he wants. He probably thinks that Machado is not someone he can trust to do his bidding.

    There was a briefing yesterday for the Congressional Gang of Four about the Venezuela military action. It left members with more questions, and we don’t know yet what those opposed to Trump’s warmongering will do.

    “This business of coming over and just talking to some of us, I think is a special kind of stupid,” Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) said in an interview Monday. “They need to sit down with every member of the Senate and explain what’s going on.”

    As that briefing was going on, Trump advisor Stephen Miller was on CNN in an interview was at times very contentious, Miller yelling at Tapper, and saying some outrageous things. The premise of his comments were that the United States has the right, because of the fact that we are a superpower, to take over countries in the Western Hemisphere for our security. Power over diplomacy.

    Below is a clip that will show you, as well as the full exchange. Miller stated that we have “a right to Greenland.” Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen of Denmark urged Mr. Trump on Sunday to “stop the threats” to annex Greenland, in effect attacking a NATO ally.

    Miller:

    “We live in a world, in the real world, Jake, that is governed by strength, that is governed by force, that is governed by power. These are the iron laws of the world since the beginning of time.”

    “We set the terms and conditions,” Mr. Miller said. “We have a complete embargo on all of their oil and their ability to do commerce. So for them to do commerce, they need our permission. For them to be able to run an economy, they need our permission. So the United States is in charge. The United States is running the country.”

    “The future of the free world depends on America being able to assert ourselves and our interests without apology. This whole period that happened after World War II when the United States began apologizing, groveling and begging…” then Jake Tapper cut him off saying “I don’t know what you’re talking about.”

    “You’re looking at it the wrong way Jake. This neoliberalism idea that the United states should go around the world demanding elections everywhere!”

    This is imperialism.

    The Pentagon moved to punish retired Navy captain and Senator Mark Kelly for an “anti-Trump video” he was a part of (it was not anti-Trump), calling it “seditious behavior.” They want to cut his military pay of $6000/month.

    “Pete Hegseth wants to send the message to every single retired servicemember that if they say something he or Donald Trump doesn’t like, they will come after them the same way,” Kelly said. “It’s outrageous and it is wrong. There is nothing more un-American than that.”

    I’ll end with one more thing about January 6th. Today on Capitol Hill, Pamela Hempel spoke at a hearing that Democrats held to mark the 5th anniversary of January 6th. She was one of the 1600 insurrectionists who were pardoned by Trump, but she refused the pardon and served time in prison.

    A remarkable woman of conscience. I wish we had some like her among congressional Republicans, then we could end this madness.

  7. #MikePence also said he sees some of #Trump’s actions as sharp breaks from what he thought were the successes of their admin. That includes “wavering support for #Ukraine” in its war w/ #Russia & “marginalizing the right to life” that #Pence said followed #RFKJr’s selection as #HHS secy.

    …watching Trump’s return to #power from the sidelines, Pence said he plans to make a public case on those issues—in part so that Trump might hear arguments those in his WH aren’t making.

  8. #MikePence criticized #Trump’s across-the-board #tariffs on Monday, arguing that a looming “price shock” to the #economy & potential shortages will lead Americans to “demand a different approach.”

    In an interview w/ CNN, #Pence rebuffed Trump’s recent comments that #children in the #UnitedStates will have to make do with fewer toys.

  9. “…whatever differences we may have as Americans, the #Constitution is the common ground on which we stand. It’s what binds us across time & generations. ....It’s what makes us one people,” #MikePence said.

    His comments came hours after an interview w/ #Trump aired in which he was asked whether US #citizens & #noncitizens both deserve #DueProcess as laid out in the #5thAmendment of the Constitution.…

    “I don’t know.” Trump said.

  12. Fmr VP #MikePence repeatedly invoked the #Constitution & said it is what “binds us all together”after receiving the #JFK Profile in Courage Award.
    #Pence received the award for his refusal to go along w/ #Trump’s efforts to remain in office after losing the #2020election. The award recognizes Pence “for putting his life & career on the line to ensure the constitutional transfer of presidential power on #Jan6, 2021,” the JFK Library Foundation said.
