Rally held at Reno’s City Plaza for Jan. 6 U.S. Capitol riot remembrance
1 min read
Reno’s City Plaza was filled on Thursday with people marking the one-year anniversary of the Jan. 6 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol. Those who gathered in Reno were there to both decry the people who brought violence to the nation’s capital one year ago and to also discuss the long-term effects that day might have on democracy.
Local political podcaster and writer Edwin Lyngar talked about the revisionist history some people continue to push.
“There is a deliberate concerted attempt to change what happened, what we all witnessed on January 6,” he said. “This is a savage attack and the worst case of gaslighting I’ve ever seen. We have to speak up, we cannot let this narrative be hijacked by nonsense, disinformation and Fox News.”
