Description

Last week, as the House Managers presented their Impeachment case -- a step-by-step, rigorous, fact-based prosecution that clearly drew the connection between Donald Trump’s words and the violence that ensued in that very chamber little more than a month earlier - we thought back to the stirring words of the Senate Chaplin, Rear Admiral (Ret.) Barry C. Black following that failed insurrection.At 4:45am on the morning of January 7th - just hours after an angry mob had violently attacked the US Capitol - a joint session of Congress certified the free and fair election of Joe Biden as the 46th President of the United States.As the proceeding drew to a close - Vice President Mike Pence, who just hours earlier was targeted for execution by the mob in that very building - recognized the Senate Chaplin to give the final invocation.Let’s listen to the powerful prayer offered by the Senate Chaplin, Rear Admiral (Ret.) Barry C. Black.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/words-matter. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
