signed on this evening just to see whether there are any photos out about T's destruction of the East wing of the While House. And here I find your right away! Awful! "No cost to the taxpayer," that's a twisted assessment, to say the least.

Only the Phila. Inquirer noted in the June debate that while Biden had speech problems, HE ANSWERED ALL THE QUESTIONS ACCURATELY AND COMPLETELY while Trump answered NONE. Media folks were and are NOT LISTENING! Since JFK we have a "vigor" bias when we should have a COMPETENCE one.

Right. This is the first I've heard that the National Guard wasn't really deployed, if true. But i don't see that it actually misses the point, because I've seen repeated step-wise progression from lies to reality after people absorb the first steps and come to find these things "thinkable."

That might actually be a good idea--wrap a protest in the flag and force cognitive dissonance on the national Guard "following orders". Sure, they will shortly rationalize and twist flag bearers into "enemies" but it will cost them emotionally.
