Pro-Trump protester who was crushed to death in Capitol riot carried "Don't tread on me" flag

Rosanne Boyland, 34, was among four of President Donald Trump's supporters who died Wednesday inside the Capitol after breaking inside to disrupt the congressional certification of Joe Biden's win, and her family blames the president she fervently backed, reported WGCL-TV. "Rosanne was really passionate about her beliefs like a lot of people," said her brother-in-law Justin Cave. "I've never tried to be a political person, but it's my own personal belief that the president's words incited a riot that killed four of his biggest fans [Wednesday] night, and I believe that we should invoke the 25th Amendment at this time."

America's nervous breakdown: For white folks who love Trump, a descent into madness

... we appear to be experiencing an American nervous breakdown — a societal form of psychological imbalance that's abundantly evident and worsening by the day. It became blindingly noticeable in 2016, but during the course of this year in particular, our national freakout has worsened to a point where sound judgment has been dangerously inhibited, while reality and reason have become increasingly rare commodities, largely abandoned by at least 40 percent of us. America is engaged in a transcontinental meltdown and it's not getting better. If you need evidence, take a look around you.

We are witnessing the birth of a movement — and the downfall of a president

They almost always begin to right wrongs: illegitimate wars; decades of discrimination on the grounds of gender or racial or sexual identity; killings of innocents by police or gun-toting lunatics; oppression by governments wielding unequal laws; the deeply embedded legacy of centuries of racism. They are imperfect. Arising out of rage, they can be unfocused, inchoate, contradictory. Protesting violence, they often involve violence. Protesting oppression, they sometimes oppress by destroying public spaces, small businesses, even entire neighborhoods. But sometimes they are large enough and powerful enough and righteous enough to bend the arc of history. We are in such a moment. There has been a turning. A protest against the murder of a black man by police in Minneapolis has become a movement. Demonstrations, which began almost two weeks ago, are ongoing. They are huge. They are nationwide. They are peaceful. They show no signs of stopping.
