In Michigan, State Rep. Steve Carra — a far-right MAGA Republican, "Stop the Steal" extremist and anti-vaxxer conspiracy theorist — has proposed a resolution calling for a January 6 "Remembrance Day." However, it isn't the victims of January 6, 2021 that Carra wants to honor, but rather, the insurrectionists who tried to steal the 2020 election from now-President Joe Biden.
The victims of January 6, 2021 range from the police officers who died because of the attack on the U.S. Capitol Building to then-Vice President Mike Pence — who some of the insurrectionists wanted to lynch — to the millions of Americans who voted for Biden only to see then-President Donald Trump and his supporters try to have their votes undemocratically thrown out. But as Carra sees it, Trump supporters were the victims on that day.
