“We’ve been set up,” they said as Congressman Cruz was about to show evidence, opening the barricades and gates of Congress to let in Antifa’s people disguised as Trump fans. Rena Wang, a participant in “Stop the Vote Stealers,” said this.
On Jan. 6, millions of President Trump supporters gathered in Washington, D.C., for a rally calling for “Stop the Steal. Florida’s Rena Wang was there to witness this important moment in history. However, she felt “trapped by someone who set a trap in advance.
Rena described the Jan. 6 rally in Washington, D.C., as a sea of people, saying, “I felt so proud to be a part of it, seeing so many patriots.”

Rena recounted that that day in Washington DC, their cell phones basically had no signal from 9:00 a.m. “People didn’t have any internet or cell phone signal at all until the afternoon when their phones were simultaneously transmitting warnings of a curfew starting at 6:00 p.m.”
Rena said that after President Trump finished his speech, everyone walked together towards Capitol Hill, first standing on the more peripheral parts of the Capitol Hill lawn, which would have been between 2 and 3 o’clock at that time. Then we all walked towards the Capitol Hill. We saw a lot of people, “What a crowd, everyone was so peaceful.”
And we all slowly walked in. “Suddenly we heard a cheer, and we saw a group of people going up the stairs on the left side of Capitol Hill, up and into the Capitol, (without seeing the police stopping them). After about two or three minutes, we heard gunshots and a lot of smoke in front of us, and we were all a little alarmed and busy asking ‘what’s going on, is it a robbery?'”
Tear gas injures innocent people

Rena said that everyone was very surprised and said it was impossible to shoot, and then they heard someone say they had released a tear gas canister. The few friends next to him were very angry. As they were talking, several more waves of tear gas grenades came toward the side of the crowd in front of them.
We were all stunned because everyone was standing there very calmly,” Rena said. We were particularly angry and moved forward to see what was going on. That’s when we saw a veteran, retired veteran-looking man stumbling around and then collapsing on the ground. We rushed over and asked him what was wrong. He said, ‘My eyes hurt, I can’t see’. After questioning, we learned that he had been hit with a tear gas canister. We, a group of people, rushed over and took bottled water to flush his eyes, and it took about 20 minutes for him to slowly get better.
Cell phones with no signal suddenly received a warning at the same time
Rena said that just after helping the veteran, just at this time, everyone’s cell phone suddenly got a signal, and the phone said ’emergency warning: curfew starts at 6pm tonight, all people leave immediately’.
She said that everyone was stunned when they saw the warning on their phones, not expecting their patriotic passion to be treated so badly. It was as if they had become criminals.
Rena said angrily, “I still feel terrible afterwards when I think of the scene. Afterwards, I saw the video circulating on the Internet and realized that they (the police/security guards) opened the doors and barricades to let the first group of people in. It wasn’t a hard rush at all. After they let the first group of people in, they released tear gas into the crowd at the front.”
It’s sad to be set up in exchange for all the enthusiasm
Rena and other South Florida supporters traveled more than 10 hours in six large buses to Washington, DC to peacefully gather in support of President Trump and call for an end to election theft.
We kept chanting “USA, USA, do your job, do your job” because we want our congressmen to do their jobs,” Rena said. That’s all we were shouting, and we were getting hoarse.”
“Then, by the time those people started putting out tear gas, a lot of Americans got mad and they were chanting ‘Our House, Our House,’ which means this is our people’s Congress, not yours. The whole Congress is ours. That’s the slogan I’ve heard the most.”

Speaking of this, Rena’s eyes were red as she stated, “We were very angry, very sad, and we just felt like we were set up (by the setup), that is, set up by someone who had set up a trap in advance.”
“They opened the barricades, opened the doors to Congress when Congressman Cruz was about to show evidence, let the Antifa people disguise themselves as Trump fans, and then said it was done by Trump supporters. And then deny the whole rally, which is the same way the Chinese Communist Party does it.”
Rena said sadly, “On the way back, several of us girls were crying and really angry. We had paid our own way to travel by bus for over 10 hours to DC, and we were so passionate about supporting President Trump and opposing election theft. Instead, we ended up being done for. It’s really a sad, sad feeling.”

Must fight for rights for the next generation
On April 5, 1976, Rena was in Tiananmen Square to witness the first pro-democracy movement under the Communist Party. At that time, the death of Communist Premier Zhou Enlai led to a spontaneous protest by the citizens of Beijing against the Gang of Four, which was characterized by the Communist Party as a “counter-revolutionary event” and led to a violent crackdown.
Rena still has several copies of the Tiananmen poems from that time. During the June 4 student movement in Tiananmen Square in 1989, she stood in Tiananmen Square and participated in the pro-democracy movement, and witnessed the horrific killings in Tiananmen Square.
Rena witnessed two of the largest pro-democracy movements in Chinese history.
After the Tiananmen Square incident, Rena came to the United States on August 11, 1989. “At that time I was completely desperate for the Chinese Communist Party. Honestly, I came out in tears all the way, and I felt there was no hope for my homeland.”
“I came to the U.S. to throw myself into freedom. After struggling for so many years I thought I had arrived in a free country, but I never thought that America, the beacon of freedom and democracy, would also be dimmed and we have reached this day to fight for our rights. It’s really an emotion!”
“We are not only witnessing history, we are making history.” Rena told her daughters, “If the day comes when you have to risk death in the streets to protest and fight for your rights like those children in Hong Kong, you can’t complain that your older generation didn’t do anything for you like those children in Hong Kong. I did what I had to do.”
Justice will prevail over evil
“Justice may be late, but it will never be absent.” Rena firmly believes, “No matter what the outcome, we did what we had to do. We always still have to pray for good to triumph over evil. And I still believe to this day that President Trump will win in the end.”
She said that every person should hold on to goodness, every person hold on to their conscience and tell the truth. Only then can this society do well. It is like what Chinese Confucianism says: first cultivate your body, then your family, and then you can rule the country and level the world.
