I'm not a slow person... but I've been busy...

I just internalized the idea that if the Repubs take back the House in 2022, ANY investigation of trump or 6 January will not only stop.... the records and documents will be shredded. I'm sure I had the thought, but I hadn't focused on it before.

This country is hanging by a thread.

We HAVE to retain control of the House...at least.

The gerrymandering and voter suppression is getting feverish...
And Pres. Biden's approval rating is down.... for NO reason that I can determine.
It is hard to run a country on lies, which is why the Repubs do such a shitty job of it.
And the Republican lie machine is working overtime.

Trump would do? That is, if Pres. Biden had just left office and was trying to assert executive privilege in order to hide embarrassing and potentially criminal evidence, would Trump give Biden time to let it play out in the courts until the Democrats could gain power again? Fuck no! He would release as much evidence as he could find before the courts even had a chance to weigh in. Why give Trump the consideration that he would never give to us? We're trying to save this country! We don't have time for niceties. Release that shit now!

Pretty much this by ALL the RW: (and yes, too many 'Murican voters are indeed really THIS stupid)

Relentless, repetitive RW framing that the US is now in1970's-style stagflation caused by Carter 2.0 (Biden) and that Biden's infrastructure bills will make it explode and kill the economy for a decade (or until a Rethug takes and 'fixes' it, gag,

plus framing Biden as having opened the border to what will be (so they say/lie) millions of 'brown thugs' pouring in and destroying the 'suburbs and rural areas' (read 'white')

plus Afghanistan was Benghazi on steroids and Biden is a traitor who hates the American military and was happy some died,

plus he is conspiring with commie China to fuck Uncle Sam in the arse and profit billions personally with his scheming son Hunter,

plus Biden is spreading Covid (that Trump handled like a boss and if the orange bloat was still POTUS Covid would be basically gone) with the vaxxes and the masks all whilst trying to suppress TRUE cures (like the paste d' horsey, hydroxychloroquine, and nebulized betadine),

and then of course the race card (antifa/BLM) is going to take over and outlaw white culture and kill white baby jeebus and rape/mug/murder your white grandmum/wife/daughters, after antifa/BLM take your guns so you cannot stop them
.

It IS that insane, I am torturing myself tonight and skimming though Fux, OANN, and NewsMax. They are all on the same page of this batshitbaggery.

The documents need to be aired in public...on TeeVee... and entered into the Congressional record.
