2020 Presidential Election

[YmoBeThere]

I vote that anyone who thinks it is necessary to protest this obviously stolen election, they should throw a rock at their TV the moment Biden puts his hand on the Bible.

Trying to bolster the Asian economies? Oh wait, what about that plant in Wisconsin?

Tongue in cheek. Ain't much of nobody else gonna be there unless they are in a National Guard uniform or wearing a badge.

Shame it has come to that in this country, but at least it will happen without on-site violence. That's how low our bar is now . . .

Nonpartisan. If you want an absolutely chilling account of what it looked like and sounded like and felt like on the ground, in the middle of it all, you have to read this:

No way in heck would I take that bet. Pretty sure we all have learned (or should have) that not much is impossible when it comes to our politics these days.

Re whether these images will stick with us...as more insurrectionists are arrested, and more devices are confiscated, I think we'll have more than enough images to last our lifetimes.

Here's new (to me) video from the insurrectionists' viewpoint of the cop who led them away from the Senate (and Pence, I believe). How many of us would have the guts to stand up to a bunch of thugs, outnumbered at least 20-1? Unless I'm armed with an uzi, not me.

The first minute is sufficient:

I've always stressed to business colleagues how important it is to document your actions. Luckily, many of the insurrectionists believe in this also.

The highest promoted story on FoxNews.com right now regarding 1/6 is about a left wing activist’s role in the riot and a friendly Capitol Hill officer who let rioters in.

Big Lie couldn’t have been possible with out the decades of Big Misdirection and Big Propaganda that seeded the soil.

After reading that long, detailed, sobering New Yorker article, you are wise to decline my wager offer.
