Top 10 Worst Things that Happened in 2021

The Top Ten
Trump Supporters Invade Capitol Hill

They invaded Capitol Hill to protest a joint session that was supposed to count the electoral votes, which they wanted to overturn for whatever reason. No evidence of widespread voter fraud was presented by the Justice Department and the courts. Rudy and Trump did a rally that morning and encouraged them to fight hard like never before, which made them even angrier, and a few of them committed acts of violence.

The House Republicans voting to object to the electoral votes have nothing to show, with nearly two-thirds of them voting to object, and way less than a quarter of Senate Republicans voting to object to the electoral college results. They've done this for a show, and every single person who enabled this event should be held accountable.

COVID Resurgence in Some Countries
2021 Israel-Palestine Crisis

Unlike many people on this website, I don't think that we should blame this on Israel because of three important factors.

Number one, Palestine initiated the attack. Number two, when Israel was going to bomb a building, they sent notes in advance to tell the people in the buildings to evacuate. Number three, the only reason Israel bombs schools or hospitals is because that is where the Palestinian terrorists set up the bombs.

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict that's been raging on for over 50 years continues. What makes it worse is how many civilians are getting caught in the crossfire. These are crimes against humanity, no doubt about it.

North Korea Threatens to Build More Nukes and Calls the U.S. Their Biggest Enemy

I hope that's not true because after all of those peace talks and summits in 2018 and 2019, they did all of that for nothing. In 2018, the North Korean leader and South Korean president crossed the DMZ, climbed Mt. Paektu together, and made a joint bid to host the 2032 Summer Olympics. Donald Trump also crossed the DMZ, making him the first president to do so. The South Korean president even went to Pyongyang and got a warm welcome from North Koreans and the leader and invited the North Korean leader to Seoul. Donald Trump even invited the North Korean leader to Washington, D.C.

I hope North Korea is not going back to their old ways because Joe Biden's going to be president now. I hope Joe Biden will help make the peace talks continue.

Texas Power Grid Failure

In a winter storm that occurred in Texas, hundreds of thousands of households didn't have electricity. Many of them are freezing to death. This is what happens when America has brittle infrastructure. Frozen wind turbines aren't the main culprit for Texas' power outages. Every resource used, from nuclear to coal to solar, played a part.

The government is playing with its own citizens.

I remember hearing about this when it happened. I remember it postponed four Dallas Stars games.

Afghanistan Falls to the Taliban

The way this whole thing went down was horrific. Many of our people in Afghanistan have either been killed or are still trapped there, being held hostage in horrible conditions. Not to mention, a lot of powerful weapons were left behind that these awful terrorists can now use against us. What kind of a potato head President thinks this is a good way to execute an evacuation? I swear Joe Biden has lost his mind.

This is literally miles worse than what happened on January 6th. Say what you want, but thousands of people were murdered by the Taliban in the process, and now Afghanistan is once again a hardcore totalitarian Islamist state. The last time that happened, they housed Bin Laden, and he planned and carried out 9/11 in the safety of Afghanistan. They also started the opium trade. This was probably the worst event of the year.

Joe Biden Becomes U.S. President

What an absolute disgrace. A spineless worm who's too afraid to put the pants on and take the country by the reins. He's done nothing but spend money to "build" infrastructure and promote hate towards innocent people in society. I won't be surprised if he leaves office so Harris can take his place and further destroy this once-amazing country.

Thanks, Biden. Now I have to spend the little money I have on gas because you decided that the XL Pipeline had to be shut down. Don't forget there are other things I (and we) need to pay for: electricity, work, child's needs (if you have kids), food, water, clothes, the list goes on.

President Biden Cancels XL Pipeline

Guys, this is very big. So many people will lose a well-paying job because of this. So far, this is Biden's worst mistake.

Honestly, this is one of the worst decisions Biden has made so far.

Taliban Takes Over Kabul, Capital of Afghanistan

This is very sad to see Afghanistan go up in flames. We have to understand that the Taliban won't be defeated. They have set up to go against the government because the government won't fight back, despite having strong and loyal support from America for nearly two decades. The government is also very corrupt.

America has a price to pay for having their own troops on Afghan soil. It's bound to be humiliating whenever they withdraw their troops from Afghanistan. However, the government of Afghanistan still has to decide their future and care for their own people. America has to care about their own interests more than other countries, but it's not worth drawing more blood with their soldiers.

For anyone blaming Joe Biden and/or Donald Trump, it's not entirely their fault. They both have some degree of responsibility since they both supported the war back then and bombed Afghan soil before. Trump had a Taliban deal a year ago he bragged about, and the GOP removed that page. Why? It's because many of the leaders he met with are now in charge of what's happening.

Jan. 4 Texas Church Shooting
Another Attempt to Impeach Trump

He deserves to be impeached for a second time because he incited insurrection. We have ten House Republicans in favor of impeaching him, which is now the most bipartisan American presidential impeachment in history.

At this point, this is a waste of time. If this were during the midterm election, okay, that could make sense. But now, this is just a waste.

So they can impeach Trump in six days, but it takes months to send money to Americans? Let that sink in.

Atlanta Spa Shootings

Eight people were killed (six of them were Asian). This tragedy is proof that we need to focus more on combating racism against Asians, not just in America, but around the whole world. Sadly, because of the rising anti-Asian sentiment following the pandemic, we can safely say that America's values on race have long deteriorated.

Twitter Suspends Over 70,000 Accounts Due to Possible "Risk of Violence" Including Trump's Account

SAY NO TO CENSORSHIP

You don't have to be a leftist to realize that Twitter's censorship has left the site in a sorry state. You don't have to believe in Trump like most of the accounts that were suspended, but his suspension completely tanked Twitter's market shares. I don't think they thought this through, as now their platform won't grow back as fast.

Furthermore, almost all these accounts were taken down because of a "risk of violence," but Twitter still allows the Kathy Griffin tweet, the numerous Antifa accounts, and a number of other violent hashtags. Note that they only seem to tolerate violence on one side.

This is backfiring on them as Uganda is now threatening to ban Twitter from their country. Not to mention, Mexico's president and Germany's chancellor also condemn the mass banning on the website.

Sriwijaya Air Boeing 737 Plane Crash in Indonesia

On January 9, a Boeing 737-500 operated by Sriwijaya Air crashed into the water four minutes after taking off from Jakarta. The plane was en route to Pontianak, Indonesia. All 62 passengers on board have been reported as missing.

Overflow of Migrant Facilities at the U.S./Mexico Border

Biden opened the borders, okay, but let's look at the current state of affairs. Migrants are being sent in droves, then packed into facilities, often in close quarters during a pandemic. There is a 100% guarantee some COVID-positive people are in those groups, bringing the sickness into these facilities. It's also likely that some are starving there.

You would think these immigrants would be legally and safely documented into this country, but apparently not. When some senators decide to journey to the border to see what's going on, they are being blocked by some White House staffers. The Biden administration needs to be under investigation as we really don't know what's going on.

Anyone can see this is not a Trump thing. He's been gone for two months now. It's a Biden thing. Two full months into Biden's presidency and this is outright indefensible. Hopefully, he can take action now, and I mean now, not whatever the liberals think is "now" because we all know they bend the straws too far. I mean now.

Donald Trump Gets Acquitted for the Second Time

This was pretty much a foregone conclusion if you study how impeachment proceedings go. 67 votes are needed to remove Trump from the possibility of running again, but there were only 57 in this case. Even with every Democrat voting (by the way, this isn't bipartisan if all of them vote one way), as well as 7 Republican senators, it was just not enough.

At least with this over, the senators and representatives can hopefully get to doing what they were elected to do. Otherwise, people will hate them more.

I feel like this should be higher considering the spread of this variant seems to be notably faster than previous COVID strains.

Republicans Objecting the Counting of the Electoral Votes
Qubo Gets Shut Down by Scripps

It'll be sad to no longer get to see shows like Babar, Inspector Gadget, The Magic School Bus (both the original and the reboot), Miss BG, the original Clifford, and Doki. I hope Scripps changes their minds. We've got until February 28 for something to happen and save Qubo.

Scripps clearly hates children. They're replacing one of the only three over-the-air kids' networks with stupid channels that nobody cares about. Hopefully, Qubo gets sold to NBCUniversal.

I never watched Qubo because I never knew about it until recently. I found out it airs a lot of shows I like, and I was gonna watch it, but then it shut down. So, screw Scripps for shutting it down for no reason.
