    And no sane person should believe that the Tangerine Tantrum is through with this. He backs up faster than a Norris Trophy-caliber defenseman.

    And the rest will become lies in the next few days. In related news, water is wet.

    The ironic thing is if he had shut up and let everything play out or otherwise distracted his mob, his congressional minions would have objected to everything, grievances aired, fake evidence referenced and he would have been able to crow for the next two weeks as cable news aired it all on repeat. Instead, people are seeing his supporters as terrorists, failed coup engineers, seditionists and traitors to the county. He has less power today than he did say the start of yesterday because the most powerful members of Congress abandoned him. All he has left are a handful of sycophants who get their information from some guy blogging from his basement.

    Love the clowns like Stephanie Grisham and the deputy national security adviser who are resigning, or contemplating resignation. It's been 1425 + days of "good people on both sides," "Do me a favor," kids being separated from their parents, endless lies and bullshit, a stolen election myth, and too much daily shittiness to recount. But with 13 days to go, they need to take a courageous and principled stand.

    Kudos.

    So.

    How do we keep this from happening every day from now until the 20th?

    Because we're not going to make it another two weeks if this escalates.

    Nations Guard everywhere? Mass arrests? I have no idea because the group is batshit crazy delusional. It’s like mass hypnosis. Anything done will set them off.

    Some arrests would help.

    Including the cops who helped facilitate this.

    By impeachment.

    And by invoking the 25th amendment.

    Pence called out the National Guard, correct?

    I’m hoping their walking orders will be set a perimeter and use force rather than backing up.

    The police yesterday, outside of one cop, did not use force and kept backing up.

    Honestly, 95 percent of the people on TV looked like lost Black Friday shoppers at Wal Mart. There was a lunatic fringe there, but even of all they have is a handgun, MAGA hat and a flag, they are not standing up to the National Guard. That idiot with all the tactical gear? That’s who you keep an eye on.
