One of the funniest images from the event was this picture that my colleague Brad Slager wrote about earlier. | |

| #6 is there anybody...ANYBODY left in that most pestilential of all towns with the remotest notion of secrecy or actual undercover work? When it comes to using the power of the state to entrap people who have done nothing seriously, destructively wrong, yeah, I could live with them being deficient in that regard... |

| #5 Well said TomPaine. Looking at the article I have to wonder from a practical point of view, is there anybody...ANYBODY left in that most pestilential of all towns with the remotest notion of secrecy or actual undercover work? |

| #3 TomPaine, I give you a classic answer — Vyacheslav von Plehve in reference to the Russo-Japanese War — which I saw as an epigraph in one of Weber’s Honor Harrington books: "What this country needs is a short, victorious war to stem the tide of revolution." |

| #2 Law enforcement is being stood down. Rule of law and due process are being eviscerated. Absentee ballots, "ballot harvesting," oligarch-funded and -directed shenanigans have taken away the remedy of the vote. Now free speech -- aside from, ahem, futile anonymous internet steam-releasing -- is on the run. They've screwed up the next generation of Americans with their COVID stupidity, and they're well on their way to bringing up stagflation and ruinous taxation and spending policies that will destroy current generations' wealth. Are they trying to push us toward extreme measures? Do they really want another civil w-r? Is that their end game? |

| #1 American Thinker - While the Rally for January 6 prisoners was a bust, it still mattered a lot On Saturday, there was a rally in D.C. to bring attention to the plight of those people arrested on January 6 and still held in solitary confinement in D.C. jails. President Trump warned people in advance that the rally was a no-win situation and he was right. It was poorly attended and it seems that many of those who did appear—perhaps intending to act as provocateurs—were law enforcement agents trying to “blend in with the crowd.” Most importantly, though, this failed rally revealed that non-leftists in America are losing their First Amendment right to protest. |
