With the swearing-in of Emperor Trump in January 2017, the fascist factions of the Republican Party were in control of all three branches of the U.S. government. As-of January 2019, Democrats took control
of the House of Representatives, but the long slog of Emperor's Trump's reign got worse
with his mis-handling of the Wuhan Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic
and the Trumpian Army's denial of the legitimate November 2020 election results.

Prelude

  • 2020 Nov 3: The critical Election 2020: America vs. Fascism Redux. In the 2020 presidential election, the total number of electoral votes was 538, of which Joe Biden received 306 and Donald Trump only 232. The popular vote was 81,281,888 for Biden-Harris and 74,223,251 to re-elect Trump-Pence.
  • 2020 Dec 31: flu bug   77,124 people died of coronavirus in the U.S. in December, making it the deadliest month of the pandemic. Also, the United States managed to administer fewer than 2.8 million coronavirus vaccine shots before 2020 ended, far below the goal of 20 million that federal officials had set for the year.
  • 2021 Sun Jan 3: flu bug   The United States surpassed 350,000 confirmed COVID-19 deaths per Johns Hopkins University; there have been more than 20 million recorded infections in the country - both figures lead the world (as per capita statistics).
  • 2021 Sun Jan 3: The 117th United States Congress convened; Senate membership is temporarily 47-51-2, controlled by the GOP but two Senate seats in contention in a run-off election on January 5th might change that; and the House is 222-211, controlled by Democrats (down 11, 2 open seats); the House narrowly re-elected Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) to the position of Speaker (the vote was 216-209).
  • 2021 Mon Jan 4: Police in Washington, DC arrested Enrique Tarrio, the leader of the far-right Proud Boys group, and charged him with one misdemeanor count of destruction of property, on suspicion of burning a Black Lives Matter banner torn from a historic Black church during a pro-Trump march on 12 December 2020 that resulted in violent clashes. Police added felony weapons charges after he was found to be carrying two high-capacity ammunition magazines. African Methodist Episcopal Church, one of two historically black churches targeted during the December protest, revealed that the church had filed a lawsuit against both Tarrio and the Proud Boys organization. After his release on January 5th, Tarrio was banned from entering Washington, DC except for trial or meeting with his lawyers.
  • 2021 Tue Jan 5: Critical runoff election for BOTH of the U.S. Senate seats in Georgia: late evening vote tallies showed that Democrat Rev. Raphael Warnock won; Warnock is the state's first Black senator. Democrat Jon Ossoff was leading in Georgia Senate runoffs, his narrow lead widened next day as the final votes were counted. Ossoff is Georgia's first Jewish senator; he also will be the youngest sitting senator, at age 33. The two victories gave the Democratic party technical control of the U.S. Senate.

  • 2021 Jan 5-6: The Proud Boys and other far-right groups are expected to participate in protests on Tuesday and Wednesday in support of President Trump's false claims that he won the November election. About 340 Army National Guard troops are expected to be deployed to help District of Columbia police keep order.
  • 2021 Wed Jan 6: Donald Trump   Hours before the riot, Trump urged a crowd to 'go wild' at the Capitol to get lawmakers to overturn the election result; Trump attorney Rudy Giuliani called for 'trial by combat' to settle allegations of election fraud, which courts and state election officials from both parties have rejected as false.
  • 2021 Wed Jan 6: Violent pro-Trump terrorists stormed the U.S. Capitol Building and tried to derail the process of certifying President-elect Joe Biden's Electoral College victory. They ransacked offices, stole artifacts, broke onto the Senate floor, and sent lawmakers fleeing.
    NOTE: One of the lasting impacts will be as a 'super-spreader' event for trumpvirus.

    "One of the most heartbreaking days in modern American history." ~~~ Kansas City Star editorial board
    "What happened here today was an insurrection, incited by the President of the United States."
    ~~~ Sen. Mitt Romney [R-UT]

  • 2021 Jan 6-7: Congress reconvened Wednesday night and certified President-elect Joe Biden's election victory early Thursday. The vote count is difficult to verify, but partial data shows that 147 GOP Representatives voted to reject the results of the election and the Senate vote was 91-8. Afterward, President Trump publicly acknowledged that he would leave office on Inauguration Day in a 'peaceful transfer of power'.

Aftermath

  • 2021 Thu Jan 7: Social media giant Facebook, Inc. announced that it was extending indefinitely a temporary block on President Trump's Facebook & Instagram accounts. Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said that Trump's encouragement of a mob before it stormed the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday showed that the risks of letting Trump continue to use the company's platforms were 'simply too great', so it was 'extending the block we have placed on his Facebook and Instagram accounts indefinitely and for at least the next two weeks until the peaceful transition of power is complete'. Twitter temporarily locked Trump's account there and threatened 'permanent suspension', saying Trump had committed 'severe' violations of the company's civil integrity policy. Facebook and its photo-sharing service, Instagram, then suspended Trump from posting over 24 hours starting Wednesday evening, and the tech giant joined Twitter and YouTube in taking down the president’s earlier video. Facebook also said it would remove harmful content posted by other users promoting similar riots at the U.S. Capitol before extending the suspension indefinitely a day later.
  • 2021 Thu Jan 7: Acting U.S. Attorney Michael Sherwin, the top federal prosecutor in Washington, DC, declined to rule out charging President Trump with inciting a riot at the Capitol, saying that the Justice Department was weighing criminal charges against anyone who played a role in the storming of the Capitol.
  • 2021 Fri Jan 8: New charges were brought against individuals involved in Wednesday's deadly pro-Trump riot at the Capitol building. Richard Barnett, the man photographed with his foot up on a desk in House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's office, was arrested Friday on charges of 'entering and remaining on restricted grounds' and 'violent entry and theft of public property'. Meanwhile, West Virginia state representative Derrick Evans was charged after he recorded a video of himself storming the Capitol. The Department of Justice said 13 people were charged in federal court over the riot, while another 40 people were charged in Superior Court.
  • 2021 late Friday Jan 8: Twitter permanently suspended President Trump's account, citing 'the risk of further incitement of violence'; Trump's account has already been wiped from the site.
  • 2021 Sat Jan 9: Jacob Anthony Chansley, who calls himself QAnon Shaman, is in custody on charges for violent entry and disorderly conduct; he is allegedly the man seen wearing horns, a bearskin headdress, and face paint inside the Capitol. Police also arrested and charged Adam Johnson, the man photographed carrying House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's lectern out of the House chamber. Meanwhile, Derrick Evans, the West Virginia state lawmaker who is facing federal charges for entering the Capitol, resigned from office.
  • 2021 Sun Jan 10: Following Wednesday's violent siege of the Capitol, payment-processing company Stripe will no longer process payments for President Trump's campaign.
  • 2021 Sun Jan 10: Plan showing up all over social media is for attacks on Sunday January 17th at all 50 state capitols, then all terrorists to reconvene in D.C. on the 20th - of course, 50 governors and the F.B.I. are watching carefully.
  • 2021 Sun Jan 10: The F.B.I. said that two men photographed carrying plastic hand restraints during 'the siege' have been arrested, one a 30-year-old Nashville man and the other a retired Air Force lieutenant colonel living in Texas. Washington, DC Mayor Muriel Bowser called for Homeland Security to impose heightened security measures starting Monday, instead of on January 19th, in preparation for President-elect Joe Biden's January 20th inauguration.
  • 2021 Mon Jan 11: Donald Trump   House Democrats introduced an article of impeachment accusing President Trump of inciting an insurrection aiming to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power to President-elect Joe Biden. "We now have the votes to impeach," said Rep. David Cicilline (D-RI), one of the representatives who introduced the impeachment article.
  • 2021 Mon Jan 11: State leaders increased security as the F.B.I. warned of possible armed protests at all 50 state capitols ahead of President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration. Washington Gov. Jay Inslee activated hundreds of National Guard troops to back up state police and defend security fencing. Georgia authorities deployed a state patrol SWAT team. In Idaho, officials locked the doors to the House and Senate chambers, with two Idaho state troopers guarding each entrance.
  • 2021 Tue Jan 12: House Democrats introduced a resolution calling on Vice President Mike Pence and the Cabinet to invoke the 25th Amendment to declare Trump unfit and remove him from office; Democrats were hoping for a unanimous vote, but most Republicans voted against; the final tally was 220-204.
  • 2021 Wed Jan 13 about 1pm EST: Donald Trump   President Donald Trump was impeached by the House of Representatives for the second time; the charge is that he "threatened the integrity of the democratic system, interfered with the peaceful transition of power, and imperiled a co-equal branch of Government", doing so in a way that rendered him "a threat to national security, democracy, and the Constitution" if he were allowed to complete his term. Trial in the Senate was an unknown at this point.
  • 2021 Thu Jan 14: Online chatter about attacking state capitols and a repeat of the terrorist attack on the U.S. Capitol continued unabated.
  • 2021 Thu Jan 14: A retired Pennsylvania firefighter, 55-year-old Robert Sanford, has been arrested and accused of throwing a fire extinguisher that hit three police officers during last week's attack on the U.S. Capitol by a mob of pro-Trump terrorists; he was charged with four counts, including disorderly conduct on Capitol grounds, and assaulting a police officer. (The allegations were not related to the death of U.S. Capitol Police Officer Brian Sicknick, who reportedly was hit in the head with a fire extinguisher.)
  • 2021 Tue Jan 19: U.S. authorities arrested an apparent leader of the far-right Oath Keeper extremist militia group on charges of plotting to storm the U.S. Capitol prior to the January 6 attack by a mob of pro-Trump terrorists. Authorities accused Thomas Edward Caldwell, 65, of Clarke County, Virginia of plotting to disrupt the electoral vote count confirming President-elect Joe Biden's win over President Trump; Caldwell faces four federal counts, including conspiracy to commit an offense against the United States; according to a charging affidavit, Caldwell helped organize a group of eight to 10 people, including self-styled Ohio militia members that were captured on Sunday. The defendants allegedly communicated as they pushed into the Capitol from opposite sides and headed a hunt for lawmakers to place under 'citizen's arrest'. In a separate event, former Houston police officer Tam Pham was charged with two federal misdemeanor crimes linked to the U.S. Capitol riot; the charges are entering a restricted building and engaging in disorderly or disruptive conduct on government property; he was arrested & released on January 22nd.
  • 2021 Tue Jan 19: Donald Trump   President Trump said in a videotaped 'farewell address' released late Tuesday that "the movement we started is only just beginning". Trump did not mention President-elect Joe Biden by name, but he said that he was preparing to "hand power over to a new administration at noon Wednesday", and extended his "best wishes". Trump also touted his economic and foreign policy record, and criticized the deadly January 6th attack against the U.S. Capitol that led the House to impeach him on the charge of inciting an insurrection. "Political violence is an attack on everything [that] we cherish as Americans," Trump said. "It can never be tolerated." Trump also called for Americans to set aside political rancor.
  • 2021 Wed Jan 20: Inauguration of Emperor Trump's replacement Joe Biden, along with Vice President Kamala Harris.

  • 2021 Feb 8: the Senate's impeachment show-trial of former President Donald Trump
  • 2021 March 4: QAnon worshippers had to come up with another fantasy for loser Trump to illegally seize power, and that magical day was Thursday March 4th, based on the ridiculous fairy tale that the last legitimate U.S. President was U.S. Grant {don't ask!}.
  • 2021 Sunday April 11: Proud Boys and other white supremacists organized for weeks to spark a national 'White Lives Matter' day of action, but in city after city across America, the result was mostly the same: almost no one showed up.

The new 2-hour political documentary film by MyPillow CEO and staunch Trump loyalist Mike Lindell is "upbeat and incoherent" {per Salon.com} and pushes Lindell's long-ago-debunked lies about the conspiracy theory that former President Trump won the 2020 presidential election instead of Joe Biden; he paid for distribution by One America News Network, which prefaced each showing with a lengthy & brutal disclaimer; YouTube banned the film on 7 February 2021,
saying that it violated the company's presidential election integrity policy, which prohibits false claims that widespread fraud, errors, or glitches changed the outcome of the vote during the 2020 Presidential election • Co-produced & co-directed by and starring Michael J.

The Steal / The Attempt To Overturn The 2020 Election book by Mark Bowden & Matthew Teague  "The Steal: The Attempt To Overturn The 2020 Election and The People Who Stopped It"
[2022] by Mark Bowden & Matthew Teague

The real story of the insurrection began months before Trump’s mob attacked the U.S. Capitol on January 6th, 2021. That riot was the desperate final act, emblematic of the clumsy, failed movement that Trump had been building for years. It began in cities and small towns all over America on election day, November 3rd, 2020. In the sixty-four days between November 3rd and January 6th, President Donald Trump and his allies fought to reverse the outcome of the vote. Focusing on the six states - Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsyl-vania, and Wisconsin - where Trump’s supporters claimed widespread voter fraud.
