U.S. Capitol Police were called about an American flag altered to include a swastika and displayed inside the office of Rep. Dave Taylor (R-Ohio), his spokesperson said.

POLITICO obtained an image taken during a virtual meeting that shows the flag pinned to what appears to be a cubicle wall behind Angelo Elia, one of Taylor’s staffers. Alongside the flag — with altered red and white lines in the shape of a swastika — are pinned images, including a pocket Constitution and a congressional calendar. It is unclear what role, if any, Elia had in the incident. He did not immediately respond to a request for comment.....

all the people who votes for ReThugs . If you’re not evangelical, you’re all going to be dirt.

IMO, the coup is over. The ReThugs are doing everything openly.

We must keep fighting, voting and resisting l as many experts have said, that the ReThugs have destroyed this country for at least one generation.

Its Bad! Find a small local group, Indivisible , etc. Yes , we will find the strength to stay engaged , protest and demand our rights.
