In a press release published on Jan. 7, Kimberly Fletcher, a mother of eight and founder and chairman of MFA, stated that some media outlets were fabricating the alleged violence and looting that happened on Wednesday and explained that most of the actions taken were nonviolent.
“What you are seeing in the media are lies,” Fletcher wrote.
“They are trying to make this all about President Trump and millions of people who love freedom and simply want honest elections we can have confidence in. I am here in D.C. I was at all these events. So, let me share the truth and facts.”

“We did not lay siege to the Capitol, but a lot of Trump supporters followed once the walls were down … Were there some folks that acted unruly, yes. And while I do not condone the actions, I certainly understand the frustration behind them,” she said.
