    All that you're doing here, is parroting the corrosive disinformation that seriously threatened our democracy, that Crazy Trump and the Scum-lican have spewed out

    On January 6, America almost lost its democracy. I was in the House chamber as officers piled furniture in front of doors and pointed their weapons at insurrectionists intent on tearing down humankind's most recognized temple to self-government.

    Many of us win elections by trashing the institution we desperately want to join. We campaign on draining the swamp, destroying the establishment, ending business-as-usual -- and then we're puzzled when we return home to rage and suspicion.

    Worse, and fatally, too many of us tell the American people that the opposition is not just wrong, but evil, immoral and a threat to the country.

    And let's be clear: There's a short fuse between Republican cries of election fraud and a police officer being beaten by an angry pro-Trump mob on the Capitol's steps.

    America is dead. Today the coffin closed and an illegitimate crook occupies the office of president. Not elected by the people.

    That's so pre-1/6.

    Yeah; an election was stolen, because a guy who has literally never told the truth in his life said so.

    cost of personal time mutually evolving making socially engineered reality real costs what ancestrally so far? Not a trick question but it does have to use instinctive sense of proportion about occupying space so far as specifically genetic positions geographcially present simultaneusly alive while spontaneously your body.

    Your social pride at believing you tamed time to yield to your will and genetically your body never exceeds mutualy evolving here now as a species.

    You cannot undo what you did to this point individualy or collectively.
    Every brain born has a lifetime conflict with ancestral displacement and intellectual social position within the population present. Why, life is a compounding connection between inception, conception, death, extinction life doesn't exceed what exists now.
