Transportation Secretary Chao resigns in protest
By Reid Wilson - 01/07/21 01:39 PM EST

Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao will resign in protest after a violent mob overran the Capitol after being incited by President Trump, a source with knowledge of her decision said Thursday.

Chao would become the first Cabinet official, and the highest-ranking member of the administration, to resign in the wake of Trump’s incendiary rally and its violent aftermath on Wednesday.

“Yesterday, our country experienced a traumatic and entirely avoidable event as supporters of the President stormed the Capitol building following a rally he addressed,” Chao wrote in a letter to Transportation Department staff, obtained by The Hill. “As I’m sure is the case with many of you, it has deeply troubled me in a way that I simply cannot set aside.”

Actually I continue to be deeply troubled that the media and now idiots like this blame this all on Trump and his supporters.

They all deserve the middle finger ... BIGLY!

What a tragic mess.

-- President Trump's legacy in radioactive tatters.
-- Democrats in charge.
-- Media gleefully enabling the narrative.
-- Most getting info from social media.
-- Unprecedented sense of entitlement.
-- Global enemies celebrating and plotting.

And, at the heart of it is/was the USSC.  All they had to do was their job.
