Jim Jordan was involved in Trump's conspiracy to steal the election and seize power; he urged that Pence refuse to count lawful electoral votes. If Rs nominate Jordan to be Speaker, they will be abandoning the Constitution. They’ll lose the House majority and they’ll deserve to.

Gov. Katie Hobbs came unarmed to a knife fight with the Arizona Senate

If Gov. Katie Hobbs wants to be effective, she'd better arm herself with a sharp knife because it's clear the Arizona Senate is out for blood.

The New York Times put the attempted assassination of the United States Speaker of the House below the fold. If you want to know just how numb America has become to Trump’s inspiring of fascist violence, here it is.

Some people ask: Why would you impeach and convict a president who has only a few days left in office? The answer: Precedent. It must be made clear that no president, now or in the future, can lead an insurrection against the U.S. government.

from columnist @LaurieRoberts: The number of Arizona politicians who insist they had nothing to do with Wednesday's stunning display of sedition and insurrection at the nation’s Capitol is astounding. It's time for a reckoning in the Republican Party. azcentral.com/story/opinion/…
Hey, Rep. Gosar, you own Wednesday's insurrection at the nation's Capitol

Hey, Rep. Gosar, you own Wednesday's insurrection at the nation's Capitol

Rep. Paul Gosar and others want to condemn Wednesday's desecration at the US Capitol, just not their part in instigating it. That's not how it works.

Trump demanded early this morning that the votes of Black Americans in Milwaukee, Detroit, and Philly not be counted. Now he is pushing to make sure Black Americans in Atlanta not have their votes counted. Like segregationists of the past, he fears the power of their votes.
