Pelosi: Capitol rioters chose their 'Whiteness' over democracy
Pelosi is currently leading the House through a second round of impeachment for the president
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., said that pro-Trump rioters who breached the Capitol on Wednesday "chose their Whiteness over Democracy."
"It has been an epiphany for the world to see that there are people in our country led by this president, for the moment, who have chosen their Whiteness over democracy," the speaker said.
Pelosi then turned to those who died from COVID-19, who were disproportionately minorities, she said.
"When that assault was taking place on the Capitol, 3,865 people in our country died of the coronavirus, many of them people of color because of the injustice of it all," Pelosi said.
"The next day, on Thursday, 4,000 people died of the coronavirus. Why? Because decisions were made at the highest level, months before in the Oval Office, of denial, distortion, delay, calling it a ‘hoax.’"
Pelosi is expected to again lead the House through a round of impeachment for the president in connection to the riot in the Capitol.
The impeachment document says Trump "willfully made statements that encouraged — and foreseeably resulted in — imminent lawless action at the Capitol."
The House, after getting 185 co-sponsors, will propose impeachment Monday, though it’s unlikely to get through the Senate. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell noted the Senate is in recess until Jan.19.
Pelosi pointed to the riot’s date, the Christian Feast of the Epiphany, Jan. 6.
"I thought it was going to be an epiphany for those who were in opposition of our democracy to see the light," Pelosi said. "Instead, it was an epiphany for the world to see that there are people in our country, led by this president, for the moment, who have chosen their Whiteness over democracy. That’s what this is about."
I know some of you have Whiteness.
I hope you don't choose to bring it to this forum.

Get ready.
It's fixing to be a very bad time in this country to be white. Worse, if you are a white male.
Unless you are of the right socio-economic class, of course.

It'll become more important to recite the requisite lines, to be sure. Oh, man, but those lines are stupid. Scripted by the intellects at WTF. Choose your friends wisely. Holy mother of God but those are some crap people.
My economic class has already skyrocketed, so no worries there.

In times like this you really want to incite people?
It demonstrates such little reflection and the need to be vindictive.
At one point republicans were circumspect and ready to dispense with Trump in every way but democrats seem determined to undo that. It’s as if they don’t want a chance for peace, healing and a natural end to Trump.
