Whose Side Are You On?

It's a question that has been asked countless times in history, and yet it remains just as relevant today. In the wake of Donald Trump's assault on our democracy, the answer to this question has never been more important. If your response to this attack is to lie and cover up what he did, attack the brave men and women who came forward with the truth, and defend the criminals who violently assaulted the Capitol, then it's time for you to seriously reconsider whose side you're on. You need to be choosing the right side.

The Importance of Truth

Truth is the foundation of any functioning democracy. Without it, we are left with chaos and confusion. The brave individuals who came forward with the truth about Trump's actions should be commended for their courage. Instead, they have been met with baseless attacks and attempts to discredit their accounts. This is not only a disservice to them, but to our entire nation. We cannot allow lies and cover-ups to become the norm.

As citizens, it is our duty to seek the truth and hold our leaders accountable. We should not blindly defend those who have committed crimes against our democracy. To do so is to betray the very principles that our country was founded upon.

The Attack on the Capitol

The violent assault on the Capitol was a direct attack on our democracy. It was an attempt to overturn the will of the people and undermine the democratic process. The individuals who participated in this attack should be held accountable for their actions. Defending them is not only morally wrong, but it is also a betrayal of our country.

It is important to remember that this attack did not happen in a vacuum. It was the result of months of lies and misinformation spread by Trump and his allies. They stoked the flames of anger and division, and then stood back as their supporters stormed the Capitol. To defend these individuals is to defend the very rhetoric that led to this violence.

Choosing the Right Side

So, how do we ensure that we are on the right side of history? It starts with a commitment to truth and accountability. We must be willing to listen to the facts and confront the uncomfortable truths. We cannot allow ourselves to be swayed by partisan politics or personal biases.

Choosing the right side also means standing up against those who seek to undermine our democracy. It means speaking out against lies and cover-ups, and demanding that our leaders be held accountable for their actions. It means supporting those who have the courage to come forward with the truth, even when it is difficult or unpopular.

Ultimately, the choice is yours. Will you stand with those who defend the indefensible? Or will you stand with those who fight for truth, justice, and the principles that our country was built upon? The answer may not always be easy, but it is clear. It's time to choose a side.
