This nation began to crumble before our very eyes today when pro-Trump protesters and insurrectionist’s literally stormed and defamed the United States Capitol building all because they’re still mad that their candidate didn’t win.
Both branches of Congress convened today, presided over by outgoing-Vice President Mike Pence, to carry out the time-honored tradition of certifying the Electoral Votes that made Joe Biden President-elect of the United States of America. But instead of being allowed to carry out their Congressional, American duties, Congresspeople of both parties were forced to shelter in place and evacuate from the Capitol due to violent demonstrators (domestic terrorists, if you ask me) who breeched and invaded the building — where they went on to break into various offices, including that of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate President/Vice President Mike Pence, loot and steal various Capitol belongings, and shoot and kill one individual involved in the protests.
All of which Donald Trump has offered little more than a milquetoast, useless “denouncement” of while continuing to tout the conspiracy theory narratives that brought them all there in the first place — ultimately earning himself a series of removed tweets and a 12-hour ban from his favorite social media platform.
As today’s events have carried on, more and more talk of invoking the 25th Ammendment, which would allow Pence to remove Donald Trump from the power of the presidency and carry out the remainder of the job himself, has been swirling around, with many reports now indicating that it’s something currently being heavily considered by Trump’s cabinet members, and Democrats in the House have already called on the VP to do.

The fact of the matter is, Donald Trump has proven time and time against that he is not mentally fit to serve as the President of these United States and today’s happenings were essentially a crescendo of such. And according to a new report from the New York Times, those closest to the now-outgoing president have known as much for some time now — to the point that it’s out of control.
According to the report, Jared Kushner’s father, Ivanka Trump’s father-in-law, Charles Kushner, allegedly sent an email to longtime Kushner family friend, Bob Sommer, in which he admitted that Donald’s behavior was “beyond our control.”
Sommer had allegedly gone off on Kushner in an email, saying, “I’ve texted Jared as well,” before calling on his former client to “get Trump to be an American” instead of an “expletive.”
In response to Sommer’s email. Mr. Kushner did not dispute the characterization of Trump, only responding back with, “Got it and beyond our control.”
In addition to his message to Charles Kushner, Sommer also allegedly sent a text to Ivanka Trump in reference to a tweet she sent out and then deleted earlier today, in which she appeared to call the violent protesters who stormed the Capitol today “American patriots.” The Times reports that Mr. Sommer told Donald’s daughter that he was “horrified I attended your wedding.” The report notes that Ivanka did not respond to the message.
