How many people showed up at the parade? I am seeing numbers for the No Kings rallies, but no actual crowd estimates for the DC birthday party. It's as if everyone is afraid to say the number aloud, or something like that.

Looking in vain, so far, for an actual crowd estimate. Plenty of characterizations, but I'm not finding any, what do they call them....numbers.

And then there are the people we lost who left no mourners behind.
We can't remember their sacrifice
The flash of white pulled me away from the conversation as I refocused on the rows of crosses along the countryside. The uniformity and precise alignment of the memorials announced a military...

If Dems were smart, and I know this is a stretch, they'd rebroadcast/repost these interviews continuously where people are most affected, along with names of reps who voted for it. Instead, they will allow time to pass and give those reps enough cover to claim any problems are caused by Dems.

Respect is always earned, even if we treat people as if we anticipate that they will, in fact, earn it. Consideration and an assumption of good will can be given, and should be, by decent people. Not sure where there's a disadvantage.
