Invaded for the first time since the War of 1812, when the US Capitol building was burned by the British, the halls of Congress were stormed by fascist Trump supporters in an attempt to prevent the certification of Joe Biden as the next president. While hyping the thinly veiled coup attempt beforehand, Trump promised that it "will be wild."

§Wanted posters by cops shouldn’t be posted

I’m all for fascists going to prison, but wanted posters by the police don’t need to be circulated on Indybay. Also, Aron Mostofsky is son a judge who sits on NY’s Supreme Court. Maybe that is more relevant than mentioning he is an Orthodox Jew.
