Received this e-mail yesterday from the Pennsylvania Democratic Party: There is a straight line from Pennsylvania Republicans' behavior in the halls of Harrisburg to the insurrectionist violence that shamed our nation this week.

I’ve read lots of notably vague “battle plans” and delaying tactics for Democrats to employ against Republicans’ plans to confirm a replacement justice for Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

Trumpian legal defense logic would suggest that like the COVID toll, Wendy Rittenhouse helped her kid with his guns but she didn’t get killed, and the death toll from her son’s shooting spree was a lot less than Newtown.

While national polling continues against Trump, trailing Biden by 17%, his frantic fascist cosplay is playing out in ways reminiscent to Nixon’s reaction to antiwar protests.
