Any thinking that the only way forward is to sweep all of this criminality, treason, & genocide-by-pandemic under the rug - without investigation & punishment - with the application of our laws as equally to the most powerful as we’ve done to the most vulnerable... is madness. /1
2/ It’s the madness of blind belief in the nation’s “exceptionalism”.
The language of “America is the greatest nation...” is always wielded by those who inherit the power to hold a criminal predecessor to account, but fail to do so.
They’re in a self-defeating belief loop...

3/...that actually damages the core of what makes America exceptional in the first place.
It’s cowardice.
We’re not angry children, who are just wailing about vengeance from our own place of grievance.

4/ The election was triage. A rush of action at the scene of massive crash site. The jaws of life were used, tourniquets applied, and the body placed in the ambulance - on its way to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.
Now, we need a series of surgeries (investigations) to survive, and...

5/... a long rehab just to get ambulatory again.
It will likely take 30 yrs to restore the damage done by these criminal traitors. And I’m not talking about just steering a ship in one party’s direction over another. That’s the kind of false flag whining that conservatives do...

8/ Jesus. How f*cking vulnerable & weak does our exceptionalism need us to be? RIDDLE ME THAT.
There is one party in our 2-party system that intentionally drives drunk on the highway, in the hope of crashing into the Constitution and murdering it.
