Hearings are demolishing the big lie - on FAUX NEWS!

Maybe there will be indictments, maybe not but at least Faux viewers are getting a dose of reality. I may be too optimistic but this just might be the start of reducing the fever for some, probably not most, of them. I can hope anyway.

Was the exposure of the Big Grift. Maybe some Fox Trumpers will think twice before sending any more money.

They will not listen to "outsiders" - tuning that out, saying they are the enemy who are out to get them. BUT they will listen to cult members who have seen the light, use cult terminology, respect, have same experiences, and connect with them in on their cult level. Cult members will then start listening.

realizing that tRUMP and his thugs were trying everything but tossing the kitchen sink into the mix to try and retain power ILLEGALLY.

I hope that LEGALLY, via the courts etc., that every one of these thugs who helped tRUMP to evade or try to evade Constitutional Law pays for it via jail time or the like, arrest at home, etc.

It does scare me how close we were via the Insurrection Act being declared by tRUMP (especially here in St. Louis/Ferguson MO demonstrations going on), I was hoping and praying that tRUMP wouldn't use these demonstrations as an excuse to invoke this act when all of these were going on, I did notice that there were some discussions going on but thank goodness that common sense prevailed somehow, maybe somehow there was a cooler head around tRUMP at the time that convinced him otherwise.
