McCaskill shares new July 4 family tradition: Watching Capitol riot video
The Hill ^ | 07/02/21 03:15 PM EDT | BY JORDAN WILLIAMS

Former Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) said she and her family will start a new Fourth of July tradition on Friday — watching video of the attack on the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6.

McCaskill, an MSNBC contributor, told MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” that her family would watch The New York Times’ 40-minute in-depth visual investigation of what led to the riots that led to five deaths.

“We’re going to start a new family tradition in my family,” McCaskill said. “On the Fourth of July and every Fourth of July going forward, we’re going to watch that video The New York Times put together of January 6.”

The Time’s investigation, called “Day of Rage: An In-Depth Look at How a Mob Stormed the Capitol,” provided a deep look into what happened on Jan. 6.

The former senator shared the project to Twitter on Thursday with the caption “I beg you. Please watch this. And don’t forget.”

Sounds like The Hill is auditioning for Babylon Bee.

"riots that led to five deaths"

Yes, four of natural causes (three of them protesters) and one unarmed protester shot by police. But the "led to five deaths" phrase is intended to make you think that the protesters killed five people.

But the fact that BLM supporters murdered five Dallas cops a few years ago is totally forgotten.

“riots that led to five deaths”

Interesting phrasing. Causation gets pretty tricky after Ashli Babbitt.

It’s probably best, for now, if they think that is what an insurrection looks like.

I’ve seen barfights that were scarier than that.

Those were mostly peaceful assassinations...

Of course she's celebrating. She thinks that like the Reichstag Fire ended the Weimar Republic, the Capitol Riot will end democracy in America and put and end to practicing the principles of the Declaration of Independence.

You now have an answer to your question, Dr. Franklin, or at least the Democrats hope so.

Well, Claire, I don’t think your tradition will make it to Independence Day in 2022, but your family can, instead, watch a video of your trial.
