Queen Ramonda

Person of the year: Eugene Goodman

I don't really care if someone else was chosen by some mess of a media company. As far as I'm concerned Eugene is the only person of the year. He is the GOAT of democracy protectors. #EugeneGoodman

Eugene Goodman, Jan. 6’s Selfless Hero

For 85 seconds, he confronted insurrectionists and led them away from vulnerable lawmakers in the Senate chamber.

@QueenRamonda He probably saved our republic that day. It's still in danger, no doubt, but if he hadn't led the mob away, they would have taken the Electoral College ballot boxes that the Senate staffers were able to grab on their way out. Without those, the House Republicans would have thrown up their hands and said who knows how the states voted? Guess we have to decide for them. TFG for four more years.

@MariaHill The fear that so easily they would have done that, it still hurts to realize how terrifying that day was.
