POTUS tweet on Jan 6 telling everyone to leave the Capitol peacefully ended the the line “Remember this Day”. Although everyone died at the Alamo, it became a rallying cry for Texans going forward. “Remember the Alamo” was the battle cry during the Battle of San Jacinto in 1836 against the Mexicans. In a surprise attack that lasted only 18 minutes, Santa Anna was defeated and the new Republic of Texas was born.
