Jake Tapper dedicates his entire Twitter feed to heartbreaking remembrance of each Sandy Hook victim

NN host Jake Tapper took a break from tweeting about news and politics on Thursday and instead dedicated his Twitter feed to the deaths of 20 children and six staff members at Sandy Hook Elementary School in 2012.

On the five year anniversary of one of the nation’s deadliest mass shootings, Tapper began by simply marking the occassion with a link to CNN’s online tribute.

Tapper then began his own tribute, dedicating a tweet to each victim of the massacre.

See some of the tweets below.

There is a special place in hell (alot of them lately) for those who deny or belittle their deaths. Everyone wonders why we are in the same place 5 years later, no safer, but asking teachers to throw themselves in front of the bullets. I look to Putin. Russia has been funding the NRA and offering support for their special kind of chaos. When something doesn't make sense, look to Russia and the reich wing. /rant off.

OMG those beautiful faces.

Sending “I Love you” texts to my two grown children who are teachers.
More tears.
This will never be forgotten.
Those refusing to make laws to help prevent this horror from happening again will never be forgiven.
