Amid the chaos tonight at the U-S Capitol, Congresswoman for Minnesota’s 4th Congressional District Betty McCollum says it’s time for President Trump to stop insisting that there was widespread election fraud. McCollum says she is “sad and I’m outraged that President Trump was able to cause people to want to trample on our Democracy and try to breach our Capitol.” McCollum is calling on Texas Senator Ted Cruz and other Republican colleagues “to tell the truth to the members that I stood with on the House floor who are perpetrating this outrageous act of repeating the president’s falsehoods that somehow this election was stolen needs to stop.” Trump in a video message earlier today reiterated that the election was stolen from him as he encouraged the mob to respect law and order and go home. 2nd District Congresswoman Angie Craig says she and her staff are safe after today’s breach, but she says she’s “shocked, I’m heartbroken at the scene that unfolded at the Capitol this afternoon.”Craig says “the political polarization has gone too far, the extremes have gone too far, so I need every one of my colleagues to condemn what happened today, and to tell the truth there was a free and fair election, Joe Biden won.” Earlier today Minnesota Senate Majority Leader Paul Gazelka of Gull Lake released a statement that “a peaceful transition of power is paramount to democracy. Everyone has the right to peacefully protest, but threats and acts of violence, destruction of property, and putting the lives of other people at risk are not part of that process.”
