This document discusses how ESG (environmental, social, and governance) factors may influence politics. It notes that after the January 6th insurrection at the US Capitol, many technology and financial companies took action by blocking accounts and suspending political donations. This shows companies' legitimate concern over the events, but it does not replace the need for deeper debate on underlying responsibilities. The document argues that the insurrection was not solely due to Trump's actions that day, but was triggered by earlier events, and that broader responsibility falls on more people than just Trump. It cites Republican congress members voting against election certification as evidence of wider responsibility.
