This undemocratic moment must be met head on
…from MSNBC with Steve Schmidt, Lincoln Project
“We must start by telling the truth” — Jim Messina
“Thank you for saving my life, and fuck you for coming.” — Capitol police officer
[ Editor’s Note: After the initial shock and confusion of the attack on the Capitol, it is becoming clear even to some of the idiots now, that it was an overt attempt to overthrow the legally elected government on the United States, and not an exercise in free speech.
Joe Scarborough quotes Jim Messina rhetorically, in that everything done in trying to fix the problem now has to be rooted in truth, which is a huge challenge, as the truth represents a major threat to legions of people in power.
Just ask Donald Trump, or think 9-11, or think Israeli espionage, or think of American exceptionalism as a smokescreen for the huge international criminals to hide behind to make themselves untouchable. Think evil on steroids.
The Lincoln Project’s Steve Schmidt put the hammer not only on Trump and the Trumpers, but their entire fascist support group, using Kevin McCarthy has his perfect foil. McCarthy did not blink at proceeding with the attempt to overthrow the election to Trump.
“Before we can talk about reconciliation, we must talk about accountability, we must talk about justice, we must talk about punishment for the violence done to the United States.”…”So our offer on the table for the seditionists is a fight where we will bring you to submission”. Steve Schmidt.
This is a masterpiece, and something to copy and save. Schmidt has a gift for crystal clear messaging with no hype, that no one should have any difficulty in understanding… Jim W. Dean ]

It was as much a religious movement backing this as a GOP one. The poorly informed and gullible were first herded into fear based end times theology, and from there gifted to the GOP.
If they go after just the politicians, it will solve nothing.
Lets tell the truth about the bible. It is an actual possible thing to do. Anything less, will not be working from a solid foundation. The game of pretend will continue with zeal.
Steve Schmid who wants Pence to run for President. The only questions that need to be asked and sworn to under penalty of death are
related to their support of Israel. No more duel citizens in elected office or allowed to vote.
Amazing zeal, the whole country is speaking with an angry tone against Trump and rightly so. Pity, the same “tough” Senators were jumping up and clapping every couple of minutes when Netanyahu was speaking in the Senate! Clapping for US’ N01 enemy. This hypocrisy is bad for US!
We will deal with that later, and this Trump induced disaster will be a primer for moving on to the next huge threat to the public, and also has to be torn out by the roots. The call by Schmidt that everyone supporting a fascist take over be punished, brings us to within going after the Israeli takeover and not being brushed off with the usual anti-semite smear, like the Trumpers tried to do with calling their political opponents advocates for the communist Biden regime.
