    I lost a thread

    So----I'll take an alternate route to the same end.

    Mike had talked about the Texas State rino convention and some of their "adopted planks". The most troubling (of more than a few others) was the claim that Biden was not the President and supporting trump's big lie.

    Maybe I am overly concerned about this---but I really do not think so. This continual erosion of faith in our institutions, without a thread of evidence is creating long term damage to our democracy. trump is not going to tell the truth---ever---and this will simply continue to fester. I am amazed that so many people hold fast to this fantasy, as if it were gospel. This is not a protect Biden issue, I could care less about that----this is a protect our democracy concern.

    I fear we will not endure if this is not stopped, and to stop it trump has to be stopped. I move increasingly toward locking the SOB up and ending this phony play. If not, we invite a tragedy.

    This is the kind of trash this rhetoric attracts

    This half whit should be locked up, not voted for

    The SOB is nuts. kimberly guilfoyle only puts the icing on the cake.

    Then I read this in the NYT this morning:

    WASHINGTON — The United States attorney general, Merrick Garland, is making an unannounced trip to Ukraine on Tuesday to discuss the prosecution of Russians for war crimes, according to his spokesman.

    Mr. Garland plans to meet with Ukraine’s prosecutor general, Iryna Venediktova, “to discuss U.S. and international efforts to help Ukraine identify, apprehend and prosecute those individuals involved in war crimes and other atrocities in Ukraine,” the spokesman, Anthony D. Coley, said in an email.
    Not to minimize the issues in Ukraine----but while you are at it Mr AJ---how about more focus on the real treat to the America

    ...and then this sentiment:

    “Every Republican should denounce this sick and dangerous ad from Eric Greitens,” Barbara Comstock, a former Republican congresswoman from Virginia, said on Monday. “This is just a taste of the ‘clear and present danger’ that Judge Luttig talked about last week.”
