Trump looks at Putin's Russia -- a failed and decaying state with a ruined economy engaged in perpetual wars of conquest that benefit only a dictator and his cronies -- and asks: How can I make the United States like that?

🚨BREAKING: On the 5th anniversary of the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, the Trump White House launched a new website that rewrites the events of that day—portraying the violent effort to overturn the 2020 election as a miscarriage of justice and casting those who stormed the Capitol as victims.

On the 5th Anniversary of the failed January 6th insurrection attempt, we’re reminded how fragile democracy can be. We must remember the darkness of that day so it’s never repeated. As history is rewritten by some, we choose to speak the truth of what happened.

Crockett: "Everyone wants to talk about how Maduro was illegitimate. As we sit here on January 6, I do want to be clear: somebody else was trying to be a Maduro of the United States. Somebody else wanted to do the exact same thing. The difference is Maduro was successful."

Trump’s pardon of 1,600+ January 6th rioters has grave consequences for our democracy.

It empowers a group of people willing to commit violence in the President’s name and shows that anyone loyal to this administration is completely above the law.

Five years ago, Trump incited an insurrection to overturn the 2020 election.

Trump and Republicans have tried to rewrite that day, but I still vividly remember it. We won’t let them whitewash or erase this deadly attack on our Capitol and our democracy.
