There, i merely said that is important, i respect the Speakers Office and the accouterment of history that is there but im more concerned that the damage that they did to our staff, to our colleagues, and the congress to the custodial staff and in the capitol of the United States. That is damage. That is damage that must be addressed. The resilience that we want to convey, we tried to do that night by coming right back, opening up the session of congress, proceeding with the business at hand. The counting of the Electoral College votes to ascertain that joe biden and Kamala Harris were president and Vice President of the United States. But that was one aspect of resilience. So many members felt their lives threatened, the uncertainty of it all contributed to the trauma. This is of something that everyone in the country should take a measure of how they reacted to this. But let us all pray for the resilience that our country is famous for and that our people need to have as we go forwar

Its not bad for any u. N. Organization to get the task and then i think its probably the only one which succeeded to make it 100 performance.
