Living in a Land of Illusion - Pt. 2

In the morning hours of January 6, 2021, I submitted my column to the Atlantic Highlands Herald, in which I discussed why our nation faced such division. I talked about big cable-based news media corporations and how they serve up the news specifically tailored to their audience’s comfort levels, rather than straight up news. It is difficult to form opinions and grow when we only hear and see what we want to see. I spoke about tolerance and how we should all work to create dialogs with those that have different ideals and opinions than ours.
Hours after I submitted my column, I received a phone call from a friend (Navy Veteran) who began the conversation by saying “Are you seeing this ______???” I explained that I had been working and was instructed to turn on the news. Then I watched as armed individuals stormed the Capitol building in an attempt to stop the certification of Joe Biden as President of the United States.

The desecration of our Capitol was only a byproduct of the insurrectionist’s true plan to subvert the will of the American people through the use of domestic terrorism. Make no mistake: overthrowing our government and silencing the people’s voice by tossing aside our lawfully cast votes was their main objective. As your elected officials, we firmly and unequivocally denounce these acts.
This failed coup was nurtured and incited by President Trump and his enablers who were willing to disenfranchise millions of citizens by amplifying his baseless claims of election fraud. Skepticism is healthy, but after all venues for legal challenge were exhausted, logic & reason should have prevailed and the peaceful transfer of power begun. Instead, the arguments became more remote, the conspiracy theories increasingly bizarre and the rhetoric more violent. And then the attack came.
