“I just keep thinking about all the times I walked through the Capitol,” my friend George said to me over the phone on Jan. 5.
It was the afternoon of Jan. 6. An insurrection was taking place at the U.S. Capitol. A mob, incited by Donald Trump and his false claims of election fraud, chanting “Hang Mike Pence!” and “Stop the Steal” was seizing the Capitol.
George has worked with Republicans and Democrats in the White House and in Congress. He’s known for his sense of humor – not for being overcome with emotion.
But, glued to the news, he wasn’t joking that day. Since then, queer or not queer, we’ve been reeling! If you’ve been to the Capitol even once, you remember the awe that you felt when you entered the building.
