How will the ukranian people who've lost their land, liberty, and loves ones react? How will the parents whose children were trafficked, tortured, raped, and murdered by Putin's forces react? Whenever you simp for Putin, remember those kids.
I have read and reread and reread that entire article.Yes. People died because of that day.
I read the entire article. I'm not sure you did.
You know a person can sustain injuries that can cause a stroke not long afterward, right? Like, if the guy wasn't at the Capitol and wasn't attacked by the armed mob, he'd still be alive today.
Four officers died by suicide, committed in the days and months after January 6th. They definitely appear to be linked to that day.
"Four suicides: Four other police officers committed suicide in the days and months after the riot.
The first was U.S. Capitol Police Officer Howard Liebengood, 51, who had been guarding the Capitol for 15 years and was on duty at the Capitol on Jan. 6. He took his own life three days after the riots.
The following day, Trump ordered flags at the White House be lowered to half-staff in honor of both Sicknick and Liebengood.
Several days later, D.C. Police Officer Jeffrey Smith, 35, who was injured in the riots on Jan. 6, also committed suicide.
Smith’s wife, Erin, told the Washington Post her husband related to her the fear and panic he experienced the day of the assault on the Capitol, and that he was afraid he might die.
In defending the Capitol, Smith was struck on the helmet by a metal pole thrown by rioters. Later that night, his wife said he went to the police medical clinic, where he was prescribed pain medication and put on sick leave.
Smith’s wife said he “wasn’t the same” in the days after the riot and seemed to be in constant pain. After visiting a police clinic on Jan. 14 and being ordered back to work, Smith shot himself on the way to work, the Post reported.
The families of Liebengood and Smith both sought to have them recognized as “line of duty” deaths, which would afford their families enhanced benefits.
In a letter sent to Rep. Jennifer Wexton of Virginia, Liebengood’s widow wrote, “After assisting riot control at the Capitol on January 6th, USCP scheduled Howie to work lengthy shifts in the immediate days following. He was home for very few hours over the course of four days. Although he was severely sleep-deprived, he remained on duty- as he was directed- practically around the clock from January 6th through the 9th. On the evening of the 9th, he took his life at our home.”
In the letter, reported by CNN, Serena Liebengood concluded, “The Liebengood family wants Howie’s death to not have been in vain. Recognition of the cause of his death, much like the critical examination of the riot itself, will remain central to how we make right those tragedies and help avoid their repetition.”
The Liebengood family later provided a statement to CNN, “Howie dedicated 15 years of his life to protecting these elected officials, as well as millions of visitors at the U.S. Capitol each year. Officials on both sides of the aisle witnessed firsthand the catastrophic events of January 6. We are certain they recognize that this tragedy led to Howie’s death.”
How Many Died as a Result of Capitol Riot? - FactCheck.org
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol resulted in "almost 10 dead." Four people died that day, and five others -- all law enforcement officers -- died days, weeks and even months later. Here we lay out what is publicly known about the circumstances surrounding those...www.factcheck.org
Try reading more carefully next time. That isn't what I said.
Swaying 16,000 voters in Wyoming would not matter when there are numerous single cities that can cancel out the whole state.
What if find flawed in many Harris supporters is the lack of honesty when it comes to Trump. Harris supporters have claimed Trump is a racist, will end democracy, is like Hitler, is a nazi, is a white supremacist, is a rapist, is going to put political opponents in jail without due process, wants WWIII. everyone of those has been said by the media, dems and their supporters. Yesterday Hillary said he is dangerous to the country and the world a day after he was almost assassinated for the second time. I disagree with all of those characterizations. It shows poorly on them when they think these are true without good evidence and most just believe it because they have been told it is true my the media. Kamala has repeatedly lied about Trump and will continue to do so because she has no policy positions or answers.
Sorry to hear it. Not sure how it relates.
And?
It doesn't say that in your article. And it appears as though you haven't read the article I linked you to.
Yes. So in a fair and reasonable system, they would be entitled to 0.37% of the overall say in the decision.
Sometimes when I hit the reply button the cursor is in the same field as the quote. If you hit the return button that will take you out of that field and you won't have the problem. Or at least that has worked for me.
There is no rational argument for why anyone would support Trump and vote for him knowing what is available about him. The man is disturbed, has obvious mental decline, lies about the most stupid things that can be confirmed as untrue, is a convicted felon, faces more criminal charges, has vowed to get revenge against anyone who has opposed him, and will allow the impiemntation of Agenda 47 and project 2025, which have horrible and in some cases illegal aims.

You mean one citizen, one vote isn't enough for the people of Wyoming? What makes them better than citizens of larger states? Why should their small collection of votes count more than those in California?
Because one citizen, one vote is the basis of democracy. It's used in all other elections.
So what? Each citizen votes for the president they want, just like states do for governors. Why should small states have a bigger impact in deciding the election for president? Should the rural folks have a bigger voice when electing their governor? Those small town folks of 1000 people don't get the voice that small states do nationally. It should be the same concept if it is so essential to elections. But no way would the majority of citizens support that.
That applies to the law and individual rights, like gays not being discriminated against, not in elections. No one advocates for going with the candidates that lose the majority of voters in elections, except in 2000 and 2016. Oddly, both of these choices ended up in terrible results. Bush intelligence failures, and Trump's pandemic failures. The majority might actually be onto something, if only they were listened to.
Right. However, I am not sure how to fix it once it happens and I don't want to spend any more time trying to fix it.
You see what you want to see and I see what I want to see, I guess.
I don't think a city where everybody flocks to should have more say than a whole state.
