Team, over the weekend, Tim marked the third anniversary of the horrific January 6th attacks on our Capitol with reflections on the needless loss of life and the importance of protecting our democracy. But what do his extreme opponents have to say on the topic?
Time and again, the GOP candidates who are vying to defeat Tim Kaine this November have used their platforms to defend January 6th insurrectionists.
Take a look: Hung Cao compared the events of January 6th to the French Revolution and pledged to release insurrectionists from prison.
Scott Parkinson defended an organizer of the “Stop the Steal” rally. |
Jonathan Emord said that if elected, he would introduce legislation to grant immediate release and amnesty to insurrectionists. Kimberly Lowe actually attended the January 6th rally and posted photos to social media of people scaling the sides of the Capitol. |
Chuck Smith perpetuated Trump’s 'Big Lie' that the 2020 election was stolen, calling President Biden a “non-elected person” being “installed” by elected officials.
Our country is in an existential fight for our future — if we want to preserve democracy and protect our elections, we absolutely cannot allow ANY of these extreme candidates to gain a single inch in their campaigns for U.S. Senate.
