   Former President Obama marked Martin Luther King Jr. Day in a tweet on   
   Monday honoring the slain civil rights leader and calling on Americans   
   to participate in acts of service.   
      
   “If anyone had a right to question whether our democracy was worth   
   redeeming, it was Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.,” Obama wrote, sharing a   
   picture of himself standing near King’s monument in Washington, D.C.   
   “Because in the face of billy clubs and lynchings, poll taxes and   
   literacy tests, he never gave in to violence, never waved a traitorous   
   flag or gave up on our country.”

   officer to travel out of state.   
      
   Betancur, who was on probation for a previous conviction for   
   fourth-degree burglary, had told his parole officer intended to visit   
   Washington, D.C, to hand out Bibles with the group Gideon International,

   the Capitol during a Jan. 6 riot by President Donald Trump's supporters

   Far-right extremists call for the execution of 'coward' Trump after he   
   asks for calm following riot: reportfar-right extremists who are hoping   
   to disrupt the inauguration of President-elect Joe Biden on Wednesday   
   are furious with the president after he issued a video urging calm and   
   no more violence following the storming of the Capitol that left five   
   dead.According to Jesselyn Cook, "When he [Trump] emerged on camera a   
   short while later, tail tucked between his legs, to condemn the rioters   
   he was responsible for inciting, and to call for a peaceful transfer of   
   power to president-elect Joe Biden, his base felt betrayed."As one   
   commenter wrote on Telegram, "So he basically just sold out the patriots   
   who got rounded up for him. Just wow."Comments like that flooded sites   
   like "Gab, CloutHub, MeWe, Telegram and far-right message boards such as   
   8kun,"
