We need to start making an example of these people. Letting insurrectionists go on vacation? Giving them lighter sentences for breaking & entering into OUR capitol building, carrying a confederate flag FFS, than BLM protestors? No wonder they're emboldened. Bannon's out there talking about taking over the electoral process & has at least until next July to continue to beat that drum every day. JFC. Is our side even awake? We'll be lucky if half the people who voted for Biden in 2020 show up in 2022.

I told myself I wouldn't panic until sometime around February, but damn, it's hard. We didn't just vote for roads & bridges, we voted for accountability. "Watergate took years," we're told. "Be patient." We don't have years! We have until next year. If we lose either chamber nothing will get done & if we lose both we're probably sunk. They will ratfuck their way into a permanent one-party-rule.
