Keep the level of pounding at warp speed and remind Americans again and again of the fraud and grift and lies that culminated in the disaster of the J6 coup, the number of elected Republican officials involved in the insurrection including all those behind the scenes who approved, raised money and cheered for the demise of the Republic.

Make them own it. Make them choke on it.

These are the same people who are quite comfortable erasing women's rights, voter rights while making sure the country is swamped in guns and ammunition and lame excuses for the killing of our children.

Bring on the fire!

One thing I've lamented is lag time in our (Dems') considered responses.

Not only does this reflect well on the prosecutors on the Committee (the workhorses), but, how frickin' courageous are the Committee members?!

I hope statutes will be erected to their patriotism some day.

I going to email all the Committee members today to thank them!

If it has true gravitas as well, we may have a contender for "America's Got Solutions" in November.

This "Coach kneeling" ruling today is some serious stuff. Gorshit wrote the decision and says that nobody needs to use the "Lemon" rule to determine separation between Church and State - another ESTABLISHED position in law, especially useful in schools and churches looking to find ways to get government money.

THIS is TERRIFYING!!!!!

THEY are making the US the place that the settlers and Founding Fathers wanted to get away from! Between the 'Maine' ruling and this, we're on our way to being seriously F**KED!

...Cassidy Hutchinson obtains security amid concerns for her safety ahead of testimony, source says

From CNN's Kaitlan Collins

Former President Trump’s orbit will be watching closely as one of the closest aides to his former chief of staff Mark Meadows testifies on Capitol Hill Tuesday.

Cassidy Hutchinson may not be a well-known name outside of Trump world, but she was an access point to the inside of it when Meadows was his chief of staff. If lawmakers wanted to get in touch with Trump, they called Hutchinson, not the White House switchboard. When they had a message to push to Meadows, they rang Hutchinson, not the legislative affairs staffer.

The young aide was there for moments big and small in the final years of the Trump presidency and was so close to Meadows, she made calls for him, arranged his meetings and even used to lint-roll his suit jackets. At least six of her former colleagues that CNN spoke with said her testimony won’t be good for Trump or Meadows. One noted she was aware of Meadows’s activities “or lack thereof” on Jan. 6, 2021.

Given that her testimony is not expected to be positive, Hutchinson has become increasingly concerned about her security in recent days. A person familiar with her situation says has obtained security in recent days.
