electric_blue68's JournalSo How Did You Hear about Jan 6 if you were at an office job, working from home, retired (@ home)?..
Did you happen to be in DU as news was reported. Or did someone text, or phone you?
My getting up routine included/es since I got a smartphone (vs replacing a basic cellphone) for Covid shutdown March 2020, but no TV (need to get one again at some point) was/is checking e-mail, going on FB for family, friends, and interest groups.
In between those two I usually check DU.
I might have gone to sleep extremely late like 4AM+ (now, I have been a night owl but even that is extremely late for me) bc I didn't wake up till till after 2PM.
I hadn't turned my radio before I got on DU which by like 2:15P they'd already fought the Capital Police, breeched the barricades, and were inside! I was like WTF?! Obviously (luckily) missing drumphf's exhortations, while at the same time the insurrectionists had already gotten past the police.
So I woke up close to the middle of it.
Instant Sense of Surealness as I now watched!
But a bunch of you might have had a TV, or radio as part of your routine. Others might have been checking in in general on DU.
Did you watch as news reports broke in - if earlier with an increasing sense of incredulity, surrealness as they attacked the barricades/police? Climb the 'effing walls? Infuriation, etc?
Even having seen some of it Live - the earlier parts I caught later; but damn if it still feels "unreal" at times. Which makes sense in a way.
Made my phone Call to Sen Schumer's DC Office to...
ask him to when going on radio, TV talk shows, or holding a Press Conference with other top Senators - that while he's not a Representative what's going n in The House could eventually effect bc of the debt ceilingng; they'd be threatened cuts to Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, Food Stamps etc. People rely on all these, Dems need to be sounding the alarm more!
Go Dems!
Here's Sen Schumer's
