American's forget just how young our country is compared to the rest of the world, that the constitution can and should be changed in accordance with the times. If we can take any life lessons from 2020, we all need to revisit the constitution (federal and our individual state constitutions), they're outdated and need to be updated to reflect the current populace. Equality, equity, voting, eliminating the electoral college and gerrymandering, marriage equality, etc.; every amendment needs to be revised to reflect life post industrial revolution, the digital revolution, a global economy, and going forward.

It appears that members of congress gave “tours” of the Capitol on the day before the riot to people dressed in maga attire. One report from a senator said she believed some of the people to have white supremacist logos on their clothing. Now appears to be reconnaissance for the next days terrorist attack. The senators that witnessed the large groups touring the facility had reported the events to the sergeant at arms on January 5th. Which is probably why he resigned after the siege since he knew he screwed up having done nothing to prepare for the higher risk of terrorist attack. The tours were odd because there have been no tours of the Capitol allowed since the start of covid unless under the supervision of a senator. So there’s yer sign 🤔
