Not one of them…
Pam Hemphill is not one of them. Pam Hemphill — a name that we must remember. Pam Hemphill was one of the J-6ers. She served time. Although she did not engage in violence, she did enter the Capitol that horrible afternoon. And do you know what, my friends? Do you know what Pam Hemphill is?
She is not angry nor is she aggrieved. Pam Hemphill is sorry. She is very sorry. And we should believe her. We should believe her, because as always, actions speak louder than words, Pam appeared on MSNBC where she said she had been offered a pardon, and she had rejected it.
Why did she reject this pardon? Because, as Pam explained, she was guilty. She did what she was accused of. She served her time, and she wants the American people to know. She knows what she did was wrong, and thereby rejects the pardon.
She was the victim of propaganda, as she acknowledged. She’s concentrating on doing good now and she is worried . She is worried about the future of our country, as we all are. Pam Hemphill is not one of them. For BEING one of them requites a blood-oath, a subjugation of the soul to Donald Trump. Being one of them means never saying you’re sorry about anything.
But please let this be a lesson. Please let this be a lesson in humility because it shows that the dignity and grace that illuminates our lands, is still here and even occasionally shows itself in unlikely people.
Some who have done dirty deeds can find their way back to sanity. They can get off the island and swim to safety, going from shipwrecked savages to good, gracious, upstanding members of society. Pam Hemphill found her way back. She is not one of them, not any longer.
