The morning of January 6 I was at home with two cell phones watching several media live streams from Washington DC. From the South Lawn to the Washington Memorial Tower, it was densely packed with people, a real sea of people. 11:00 began in particular earnest, but Trump only arrived at the podium to speak at about 12:00. The speech was high-spirited, but the content was rather bland. I was watching the live Chinese translation of the meeting inside Congress at the same time.
Vice President Pence’s opening statement said something like we need fair and transparent elections, which gave me the impression that he was in favor of exposing the truth. The speech was basically a one-on-one rotation between the two sides. The side that said there was massive fraud in the election was well grounded and reasoned, and three of the speakers drew louder applause after their speeches, and one seemed not to.
The pro-Biden side spoke in grandiloquent, bland, tasteless speeches, and no one applauded. There were already quite a few people around the Capitol, waiting, some singing hymns, some people praying. Around two o’clock, I saw people climbing the wall and also police officers taking the initiative to release the iron horse outside the main gate to let people in.
I had an ominous feeling and immediately followed others on Twitter with “What are you doing in there, be wary of people fishing in the water” and “The people climbing the wall are not Chuan’s people” (you can search for “Ling Shu” on Twitter).
A red flare went up outside the Capitol just before Rep. Ted Cruz (R-Texas), the Republican with the best information on the massive fraud, was about to speak. One video shows a police officer seemingly stopping, but actually guiding a group of oddly dressed (possibly Antifa) people floor after floor up to the doors of the third floor Capitol.
The first and second floors have passageways to various corridors and rooms, but this police officer does not lead there, but from the stairs all the way up. Most of the people in the hall had been evacuated, and several lawmakers were blocking the door with a large podium and pointing guns at the door. There were two live videos of Trump tweeting continuously, asking people to be peaceful and law-abiding, and then asking them to go back. Later, there were live reports of people being injured and killed…
It was announced that the meeting would be cleared at 6:00 p.m. It went smoothly and calmly, with one or two tear gas bombs occasionally seen being sent. The meeting resumed at 8 p.m., and the first four or five speeches were all one-sided, condemning the mob.
I feel that the authorities are confused, the onlookers are clear, those legislators are stunned. I have a responsibility to correct the situation, and although I’m tired, I talked to a few friends on the phone and wrote some of it myself on Twitter and Facebook… I learned today that five people have died.
I’m old, but I’m still protected because I’m a doctor, I’m not deaf, I’m not blind, and my brain is not yet demented. I did not make it up, and I want to take responsibility for what I wrote. Of course, one person viewing is limited, even wrong, and I welcome to be added, corrected! People come together to seek the truth!
