Ken Paxton, fresh as a rotting daisy post acquittal, appeared on Steve Bannon's 'podcast' to brag he "stopped 2.5 Mail in Ballots".

Downplaying the seriousness of COVID makes people think that it isn’t important to get vaccinated. The “everything’s fine” messaging of the White House left a gap for conspiracy theorists and anti-vaxxers to exploit and grow their power.

It's great to see these civil cases proceed ESPECIALLY since at the time this was happening there were NO Arrests!

Millions of Americans are relieved that Trump is, hopefully, on his way to justice.

I tend to imagine that Trump sees his predicament as potentially sanguine as it is inauspicious.

Hitler attempted a coup, the Beer Hall Putsch, in 1923. He was convicted and imprisoned briefly, during which time he wrote Mein Kampf. The rest is hideously ugly history — history in which an increasingly desperate Trump hope hears the ring of rhyme. He’s listening for more.

Via Kyle Cheney:

JUST IN: Ray EPPS pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct on restricted Capitol grounds..sentenced 12/20.

Judge read from his statement of offense, which incl putting his hands on giant #Trump sign mob wielded against police.

Statement of offense included his Jan5 statements saying “We need to go into the Capitol” & “I’m probably going to jail for it” #Jan6
