The following assertion appeared in a Politico article on unprecedented action by the "Jan. 6" inquisitorial cabal issuing subpoenas to members of Congress: "The panel believes that these five GOP lawmakers have insight into Donald Trump’s effort to overturn the 2020 election, an effort they say amounts to a coup attempt."
Note the accusation by the inquisitorial panel that President Trump made "a coup attempt." This, of course, is an example of projection of the left of its own mindset and conduct onto its political targets. What was the conduct of the left -- ranging from false accusations that Donald Trump was a Putin puppet, including the base and baseless Steele dossier to vows of resistance, including an aberrant impeachment trial in 2019, and culminating in an impeachment farce post-Trump presidency in 2021 -- if not a series of coup attempts?
And still the attempt at an anti-Trump coup continues -- by means of the Jan. 6 inquisition, not to mention the plethora of actions brought by various prosecutors against the former president -- apparently for the purpose of preventing a third presidential run by Mr. Trump, and, in all likelihood, to block a seismic political shift this November to GOP control of House and Senate.
The left's inquisition against Donald J. Trump and MAGA adherents is laughingly seen as the work of "progressives." But what is "progressive" about the totalitarian context of the left's program? (One hesitates to call it "Biden's program" as he seems simply the left's useful tool to put finis to the liberty-loving spirit that gave birth to this Republic.) The label the left applies to itself may well be "progressive," but the reality is that their program,
hearkening back to pre-representative government days, is fiercely regressive.

These Republicans should tell them that they better make the most of their power for a few more months because when they become the minority is when the show trial ends and the real trial begins.
Perhaps the Democrats should arrange a 3rd impeachment of Trump before the midterm elections.
Republicans should tell the committee that until all the video of that day is produced no one is showing up to the inquisition.
A ‘coup attempt’ by Trump, with no firepower in the crowd of protesters supporting Trump, at the Capitol surrounded by National Guard troops who didn’t fire a single shot? (We know that they were denied live ammo).
Even 3-year olds come up with better excuses ...
