"A functional government does not need to be convinced to prosecute people who launch a seditious violent attack. They would want to in order to protect the country. You need to ask some tough questions about why this government will not." --

"We watched the recruitment of militants play out online in real time for a pre-announced Jan 6 attack. Now those tweets and post -- the evidence -- are erased, and the US has become the only country in history to memory-hole a coup." --

"We are told not only by the people who perpetrated the coup that it was not a coup, but by the side who the coup was aimed at -- the Dems -- and the media, both of whom will not speak bluntly about the severity of the threat."

As always, there are welcome exceptions:
Lotta people trying to pretend it wasn’t a coup. Beware the savvy set, especially in Washington DC. There’s always a market for someone to scold people for freaking out, even when there’s good reason to be freaked out. It was a coup. Don’t give me some new evidentiary standard.

"You need to examine the perpetrators of the Jan 6 attack, but you need to examine the enablers just as much. Nearly ten months after the attack we still see stalling, prevarication, and dangerous elite operatives roaming free." --

That’s a concept I can hardly even imagine. I’m about to be 31 and can’t say I’ve lived under a functional government in my lifetime.

I fear for the future for my adult children and young grandchildren! I never thought I’d see this in my lifetime-shows just how ignorant I was!
