I'm a woman who will be 5 months pregnant January 6th and have a 7 and 4 year old to look after. I think it's a reasonable call to say I should sit this one out and support from the sidelines. If you're a MAGA man whose only excuse is having to work, it's not a good enough reason. - The Donald

Use time off, and if you don't have it, then you have covid. Find a way. I'm sure many women will be there and if I felt I reasonably good be, I'd want to be too. But we absolutely NEED our MAGA men showing up in unprecedented numbers, and (imo) armed. It's not time to sit on the sidelines. I only gave my reason for not going as a barometer to say "do I really have a good enough reason not to be there?"

THIS, had a big sit down with the wife this afternoon, she didn't want me to go, she wanted me to stay home with her and our 4 month son. I explained to her that wars aren't fought by childless men, and I can't sit back and watch my great grandparents/uncles that died in WWII to roll in their graves with what our country has come too, My 4 years of army service was a joke and I needed to show up to DC on the 6th. to actually serve my country, She's on board now.
