Gotta give Mitch a shard of credit here:
The mob was fed lies. They were provoked by the President and other powerful people, and they tried to use fear and violence to stop a specific proceeding of the first branch of the federal government which they did not like.
Provoked was a carefully chosen word. He’s advertising to the impeachment hearing managers where they should go, but is careful around the word ‘incitement’. Mitch’s
other powerful people suggests that he fully recognizes what happened here – the broad lie about the election being stolen was the incitement, and members of Congress and Fox News among others are also guilty.

The Frances Young Tang Teaching Museum and Art Gallery at Skidmore College has published a book on the most urgent issues of the day from race to food insecurity.
Culture as Catalyst is a collection of dialogues and new writings by artists, scholars, activists and influential thinkers who present new perspectives and encourage a “getting comfortable with discomfort” attitude to work through big ideas to drive change.
Edited by Isolde Brielmaier, the curator at large at the Tang Teaching Museum, the book accompanies the 2017–2019 Accelerator Series of public conversations she organized at the museum to shed light on the topics of whiteness, migration, mass incarceration, feminism, monuments, citizenship, cultural appropriation, forgiveness and food justice.
A HOTEL owner has spoken of the issues of being right on the border between areas with different Covid tier restrictions. The Malvern Hills Hotel, which straddles the Herefordshire and Worcestershire border, has a WR postcode but falls 20 metres inside Herefordshire, meaning they can trade under tier one restrictions. Herefordshire was placed into tier one on Saturday December 19 which allows for people to mix households inside hotels, restaurants and pubs, as long as the rule of six is applied – however, all of that is banned in tier two Worcestershire.
Border lines The Malvern Hills Hotel relies on it’s restaurant trade so the tier system has not had a drastic effect but owner Matthew Cooke admits it’s been a difficult period to monitor.
