The only question now is can we reverse course.
**************
With all due respect I doubt it. I know by “we” you mean conservatives and other responsible people but “we” in a larger sense is problematic now. Our culture, demographics, morality, ethics, democratic ideals, respect for laws, etc have all fundamentally changed. We are not the country we once were. That is the reality.
Don’t ask me. As them. They are the ones who beg for our votes and money but do very little in return to justify our support.
I understand our situation but I’d rather remain optimistic than hopeless.
“Most of the fatalities occurred during the second half of World War II, including at least a third of the 700,000 prisoners who were registered as of January 1945.”

Fatalities?
Uhh, at this point in the piece, might they more accurately be termed “murders”?
This kind of loose neutrality, antisepticity, passive non-judgmentalism, often pops up in stories about mass murder.
I appreciate that. If we had a party fighting for us (and I mean really fighting) my views would be different. The DC cesspool has contaminated both parties unfortunately. I believe there is wide recognition of that.
I would also be more optimistic if the R’s would replace current leadership. I realize they “removed” Cheney (that took two rounds of voting amazingly) but McConnell and McCarthy (Paul Ryan’s puppet) are still there. The same weak “generals” who don’t play to win battles.
The R’s are coming out with a “Commitment to America” next week. I watched McCarthy talk about it on the Laura Ingrahm Show and he dodged her pointed questions. Even she got frustrated with him. As usual the purpose behind this 11th hour “pledge” is to generate more cash and votes. Bear in mind that here we are just a few weeks away from a pivotal election and few people have any idea what the GOP stands for.
One thing seems obvious to me: Republicans simply don’t want to lead and that is the problem. Trump leads, but the party is uncomfortable with him, at best.
Do you have a point to make?
It will not ramp down afterwards.
Nice try but no. Biden’s Reichstag fire is still to come. J6 was simply a target of opportunity, making the most of the opposition’s unforced errors. This year’s October Surprise will make history.
Remember the Maine! Remember? The perfect scenario. Saboteurs blew it up. A quick war started over it. Only afterwards did they find out it was a boiler that blew up.
