Yesterday's hearing grimmer than I realized at the time; it's sinking in how close we came (and still could). The former oathkeeper who said we were lucky, the bloodshed could have been far, far worse.
Well, it's morning now, dusted myself off and will continue to work for good results November 8. Sure would be swell to get rid of Ron (what were you doing in Moscow July 4, 2018?) Johnson and Traitor Tom Tiffany.
