CBS This Morning reported Tuesday -

the day that marks since months since the attack -

on the group that originally started as a text chain run by Rep. Pramila Jayapal, the chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, of members who had been trapped in the House gallery on January 6.

It later became a full-fledged support group of two dozen Democratic lawmakers.

Rep. Veronica Escobar, a Texas Democrat, said after January 6 she was having a hard time coping.

'I was having some very violent nightmares. that were deeply disturbing,' Escobar recalled.

Beyond talking to her Congressional peers, Escobar also said she's speaking with a therapist.

'That has helped me tremendously,' she said. 'It is important to share with people that trauma takes a toll and that there is help out there. There is no shame in asking for help,' Escobar said.

In one viral image from January 6, Wild was seen gasping on the floor of the House gallery and being comforted by Rep. Jason Crow, who's also in the Democrats' support group.

'I think I started to have a panic attack. Jason reached out took my hand and started to comfort me, that I'll never forget, on his part,' Wild recounted.

She said looking at the image still makes her 'choked up.'

Imagine the nightmares they would pretend to be having if someone had setup a symbolic styrofoam Guillotine in the Rotunda.

Why? Because we protested their blatant theft of the 2020 election?

The poor little dears. It was the last great Democrat who said 'if you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.'

He also said 'if you want a friend in this town, get a dog'.

And yet, the right is losing to these people. Culture war, academia, government institutions, etc.

F’n great. A fake “support group” about a fake insurrection so a bunch of lying liars can go on The View to cry crocodile tears which a bunch of brain dead libtards will savor like they’re Moet Chandon. Beam me up Scotty.

Meanwhile, the DOJ/FBI has suspects in solitary confinement and they haven’t even been formally charged. Where they’re right to a speedy trial? Probably trying to mentally break them to force a confession.

If there seriously was some kind of “right-wing” threat to the emerging Democrat One Party Rule, it would not be politicians who are assassinated.

It would be the perverts who run the so-called “entertainment” industry, and the pinkos who run the so-called “news” media.

Starting with the low hanging fruit, and working up from there.

For some reason, this reminds me of my late grandmother, who went to her Reward some years ago at 96. Around 1965, as the first stories about the long-haired, anti-war, “hippie” movement started appearing on the news at night, she said back to the screen, “Just give me a machine gun. I’ll take care of the problem in five minutes.”

Creating excuses for the brutal oppression to come.

What the Nazis did to the Jews, Democrats will do to us.
