We are in deep shit with these election deniers. A divided nation with a seriously compromised, morally bankrupt soon-to-be Speaker. How many House Members refused subpoenas to the 1/6 Committee? They should all be removed from the positions that they swore an oath to. And a new batch of un-sworn (tell me it makes a difference) are ready to willingly join the big lie team. Apparently, we have no mechanism to do that either. Insurrection and sedition appear to be fair game with no repercussions. Right?

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
