The attack on our democracy 5 years ago at the Capitol is now playing out on national and global stages due to the lawlessness of our president and his allies. But, as I will say on Capitol Hill today, there is a path forward if we all do our part. And Congress must do its part too.
Five years after the Capitol Insurrection, the attacks on our democracy are only intensifying.

FIVE YEARS & he has not been held accountable for one of the most disgraceful events in this nation's history.
Trying to overturn a fair election in an attempted coup against his own government is the very definition of TREASON. We can never move forward until this is fully adjudicated. #ShameOnUS🇺🇸

MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO
T: So force is on the table?

Five years ago today, Donald Trump urged his supporters to attack Congress and the Capitol over a proven lie. More than 140 police officers were injured.
Trump then pardoned the attackers.
He betrayed his oath and his country, and we won't ever forget it.
