Corporations halt donations to GOP who voted to overturn
elections
[quote]Some of America's biggest companies are suspending
donations to Republican Congress members who objected to the
Electoral College's votes.
The growing list of those corporations, including BlueCross
BlueShield, Citigroup (C), Commerce Bank and Marriott (MAR),
comes after a pro-Trump mob breached the US Capitol last
Wednesday to fight against the ceremonial counting of electoral
votes that confirmed President-elect Joe Biden's win.
147 Republicans voted against certification of the electoral
votes in a joint session of Congress last Wednesday evening.
They included Missouri Sen. Josh Hawley, Kansas Sen. Roger
Marshall, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Alabama Sen. Tommy Tuberville,
among hundreds other congress members.
"At the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, we continuously
evaluate our political contributions to ensure that those we
support share our values and goals," said Kim Keck, BlueCross
BlueShield's president and CEO, in a statement. "In light of
this week's violent, shocking assault on the United States
Capitol, and the votes of some members of Congress to subvert
the results of November's election by challenging Electoral
College results, BCBSA will suspend contributions to those
lawmakers who voted to undermine our democracy."
The health insurance company's BLUEPAC political action
committee -- supported only by employee contributions -- donated
$246,750 to Republican lawmakers during the 2020 cycle. That
included $10,000 to Sen. Tuberville, $1,000 to Sen. Marshall and
$500 to Sen. Hawley.
BlueCross BlueShield said it's stopping donations to all 147
Republicans who challenged the Electoral College
results.[/quote]

[quote]Eric Gavelek Munchel, the man allegedly identified inside
the Senate chamber wearing tactical gear and carrying zip ties
during the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol, was arrested in
Nashville, Tennessee on Sunday, Jan 10. The 30-year-old was part
of an insurrection trying to halt Congress' certification of Joe
Biden's electoral victory. He has reportedly been charged with
one count of 'knowingly entering or remaining in any restricted
building or grounds without lawful authority' and one count of
'violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol
grounds.'[/quote]

FBI warns 'armed protests' being planned at all 50 state
capitols and in Washington DC
[quote]The FBI has received information indicating "armed
protests" are being planned at all 50 state capitols and the US
Capitol in Washington, DC in the days leading up to
President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration on January 20,
according to an internal bulletin obtained by CNN.
The news comes as security measures are being stepped up ahead
of Inauguration Day, with federal, state and local law
enforcement agencies preparing for the possibility of more
violence after rioters stormed the US Capitol last week leaving
five people dead, including a Capitol Police officer.
Even as federal investigators continue to track down suspects
from last week's attack, the bulletin highlights concerns that
the US Capitol siege was perhaps just the beginning of
potentially violent actions from supporters of President Donald
Trump who have been animated by his lies about a stolen
election. [/quote]

Their "white" tribe and western colonial culture is more
important to them than the American nation, this is why they are
un-American!
Op-Ed: White tribalism is under assault — from white people.
That’s an amazing development
HTML https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2020-06-11/op-ed-white-tribalism-is-under-assault-from-white-people-thats-an-amazing-development
The "white" tribe can never be "under assault" from "white"
people, that is not how tribalism works. The author of the above
Op-Ed still doesn't get it! Try harder....

Sen. Ted Cruz Stands By His Man, Donald Trump
[quote]Despite Trump’s personal insults against his wife and
father in 2016, Senator Ted Cruz has been a staunch supporter of
President Trump. Former Texas Representative Beto O’Rourke says
Cruz has his eye on Trump supporters for his own presidential
bid. “I’m certain that’s what motivated him on the floor of the
senate on Wednesday, to try to overturn this election – that he
could claim credit with the Trump crowd.”[/quote]
