How long until the Library of Congress faces a purge? Should historians be getting what resources they can now? I'm imagining anything related to the civil rights movement, anti-fascism, and even public health could be gone soon.

If your argument is "sure, a terrible modern event has a parallel in the 1920s and 30s but don't worry we turned out just fine", might I suggest reading about the 1940s.

How can we tell people to shake it of and stay in this fight when the incompetence results in fatalities ?
Absolutely no disrespect to the lives lost on flight 5342 or the US airmen lost. You can't shake that off. All our condolences. Good people are paying the price, some with their lives.

"MAGA Granny" turns down Trump's pardon.
"Accepting a pardon would only insult the Capitol police officers, rule of law and our nation. I pleaded guilty because I was guilty. Accepting a pardon would contribute to the gaslighting and false narrative."
Good on her!
