Adolf Hitler’s Minister of Propaganda, Joseph Goebbels, said: “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it.” The media devoted so much time last week to propaganda about the “violent insurrection” at the US Capitol that never happened or is being “half remembered” calling it “a national day of infamy”…pathetic. With patients scheduled that day, my DVR was programmed to record C-SPAN. I wanted to hear the challenges of multiple senators and representatives to the certification of Electoral College votes from six states.

Courts at every level refused to hear the evidence, so at least now it would be part of the congressional record. Instead, trespassers broke windows and interrupted the process. Whatever you believe about the November 2020 election, 29 million more ballots were counted or 22% more than in 2016.

President Donald Trump received 13 million more votes than any previous incumbent president in US history. Whatever you believe about January 6, 2021, the only person who died violently was Ashli Babbitt, an unarmed 14year Air Force veteran fatally shot through a door by Capitol police officer Michael Byrd. Imagine the difference in coverage if the shooter had been white and the victim black. After more than a year of manhunts and people held in detention, no intruder was charged with possession of a firearm. After a four-hour delay, the election results were hastily rubberstamped and challenges to four of the six states were never heard. Whether you consider it an “armed insurrection,” a riot, or — compared to the anarchy, looting, and burning by Marxists in the summer of 2020 — a “mostly peaceful protest,” the net result was that certification of the election was left unfinished.
