    He deserves nothing with "honor" in it.

    Can we throw him over the wall, not let him back in and let the Mexican people deal with him as they please?

    Here's the unkindest cut of all. Anonymous sources say the PGA is gonna move the 2022 PGA Championship from Bedminster.

    In chess, if you have a strategic advantage, you attack. If you are vulnerable, you have to be willing to sacrifice pieces in order to regain a balance. That's where we are right now, only in real time.

    The Democrats MUST continue to press forward or lose any high ground before the GOP can regain anything close to a stalemate. I'm guessing they're more than willing to throw Hawley and/or Cruz under the bus before sacrificing their Trumpist base.

    The reason why Benghazi worked was because Clinton was put on the defensive AND made the blunder of saying "what difference does it make?" when challenged. That's the soundbite the right wanted to hear to prove she was inept, even if it was a no-win situation for her.

    That's why the Democrats need to move swiftly and aggressively to make sure to continually hammer the apologists in Congress over this. This was insurrection initiated by the President of the United States and sanctioned by members of his political party, solely to overturn a free election and empower a weakening base. The majority of them are still thinking they can wiggle out of this mess if they plead ignorance or fake unity.

    Demos should be asking every single Republican right now in a public forum, on the record: "Choose one: your party or your country. You cannot serve two masters." The GOP knows it can't let any more of its base melt away, which is why here in Georgia, they're willing to pass a bunch of new restrictive voter rights laws to stop the growing Demo base from gaining any more of a foothold. Texas will find itself in a similar situation as more and more Californians move there.

    Biden's attack on Hawley and Cruz, linking them to Nazi-like activities -- and not willing to cower to their counter-attacks -- signals a new unwillingness to let things slide. I hope he keeps up the pressure.

    And any insurrection on Jan. 17 ought to be met with real bullets this time. As people around here are fond of saying, shoot first and let God sort 'em out. If they want martyrs to the cause, let's give them too many to count.

    I bet the Lincoln Project thought they were winding down. They have years worth of work to do.

    Hat Man is a West Point grad and Harvard MBA. He's made a very good living for himself as a real estate investor and author.

    A lot of the people who post on his board are business owners, engineers, IT guys, financial services people and the like. Many seem to be former military.

    Always makes me wonder just how under served (?) minorities were. We now that they are and then you hear of specific racist people in a specific profession and you wonder how they treated the people that needed them.

    Dems will push for an impeachment vote next week. McConnell has already said he won't bring it to the Senate floor, so that part happens after the inauguration. I think they still impeach simply as a matter of record. It also cuts off Trump's benefits, and more importantly, his ongoing briefings.
