Republicans are determined to blame Black Lives Matter and antifa for the Capitol Hill riot. But after Tuesday’s Senate hearing on the insurrection, there’s no doubt that white supremacy was the real culprit.
FBI Director Christopher Wray confirmed what many of us already knew — that white supremacy is thriving in America. The sentiment that has been brewing for several years reached a pinnacle when an angry mob stormed the Capitol on January the 6th.
Though its prominence rises and declines with the political climate, it has always been there waiting for the right moment to explode. And there is one thing we know for sure — the scourge of the white superiority ideology will never go away.
But it will continue to flourish until law enforcement officials and politicians from Washington and every little town in America decide it’s time to stop allowing it to wreak havoc. The Senate hearing showed no indication that will happen anytime soon.
Many Republican lawmakers have chosen to ignore the facts about the insurrection. Politicians and conservative pundits continue to perpetuate the lie that Black Lives Matter and Antifa were responsible for the insurrection.
They refuse to admit that many of the domestic terrorists who stormed the Capitol were white supremacists who support Donald Trump. The former president spent four years cultivating this large constituency within his base.
