The United States is undergoing an incredibly tense and scary political moment.
On Wednesday, supporters of outgoing president Donald Trump stormed the nation’s capitol building to protest the recent presidential election.
Shortly after the news broke, former Miami Heat superstar Dwyane Wade took to social media to discuss the news and highlight the differences between how the predominately white protesters have been treated compared to how Black Lives Matter protesters were treated during mass protests this past summer.
They’ve Stormed The Capital!!!! Wow. Just wow.

All of a sudden, it has become a sad and historic day for the United States.
