Life is a mystery
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home
When you call my name, it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there
Everyone must stand alone
I hear you call my name
And it feels like home
When you call my name, it's like a little prayer
I'm down on my knees, I wanna take you there

Even a year ago, I wouldn't have been so uncertain what we'd learn.

Anyhow, seems like we've reached a point in the US where many ordinary people- not affiliated with militias - hold the belief that only violence will protect them / us from an outgroup.
Like these folks, having a normal one on the Doctors Without Borders feed.

This is just stenography. The words illegal, unconstitutional, and constitution appear nowhere in this piece. The administrative coup *is* illegal- but the Times treats demonstrable fact as a matter of Democrats' and watchdog groups' opinion.
By whitewashing the coup, they are enabling it.
