An otherwise dedicated public servant, Dr. Birx should not be unfairly maligned because she spent the first 8 months of deadly crisis undermining public health, by spreading dangerous disinformation, in order to ingratiate herself with anti-science Dear Leader.
“[Trump] is so attentive to the scientific literature & the details & the data, & I think his ability to analyze & integrate data that comes out of his long history in business has really been a real benefit during these discussions about medical issues,” crooksandliars.com/2020/03/dr-deb…
Mainstream media has an insatiable appetite for rehabilitation tours. But, there are still over 1,000 people dying each day, due to residual impact of Trump's corruption, cruelty, incompetence: maybe we can wait for crisis to pass before rehabilitating the perpetrators?
Also: no rehabilitation without accountability.

I was finally persuaded by the Twitter conversation to turn on #OprahMeghanHarry, and damn this is dark and interesting.
First, and foremost, so critical to spread message that it is OK to seek help for mental health issues when you need it.
Second, stoked our founders got US out of this hereditary monarch situation, and nice of Oprah to finally finish them off.

Regardless of how the cowardly pro-Trump Insurrection senators vote: this presentation by House Managers prosecuting Don Trump is chilling, thorough, clear proof of his crimes against US and will serve as lasting testimony to disloyalty of him & Republican Party still backing him
Senator Romney, only Republican to vote to hold Don Trump accountable in his first impeachment, was basically alone heading towards armed mob when Officer Goodman turned him around: anyone really want to argue they would not have physically harmed him?
A vote to acquit Don Trump of inciting this violent insurrection is basically a vote that you are totally cool with ordering the assassination of @Mike_Pence & his family, in order to overthrow the republic. There is no ambiguity here: Trump was uniquely focused on Pence.

Reason Don Trump's lawyer sounds confused & absurd is because there is no reasonable defense of what he did to US.
It is this simple: an acquittal vote = *for* violent insurrection, and a convict vote = *against* violent insurrection.
There is no debate on facts of what Don Trump did in orchestrating this violent insurrection, there is no debate on nature of the pro-Trump insurrection, and all of the procedural questions are bullshit. Senators are either pro-insurrection (acquit) or anti-insurrection (convict)

Worth taking a look at how Republican/Trump sycophants are simultaneously downplaying their violent insurrection at Capitol on 1/6/21 and exaggerating violence at BLM protests from the summer in desperate false equivalency.
Critical points (1) Republican leaders have sort-of condemned the violence of their Insurrection, while continuing to defend the goals & methods of the violent insurrectionists (2) Insurrection encouraged by core leadership of Republican Party: president, leader in house, etc.
(3) Notice how Republicans keep omitting the police officer murdered at their Insurrection, additional deaths, and subsequent suicides by police officers (4) 140 officers were injured, not 14: biggest mass causality event in a long time

So far the most excitement has come from bad bounces in the punts #SuperBowl
Kickers have gotten too good. That 49 yard field goal looked so easy.
Goal-line stand was fun, now can Patrick Mahomes bring Chiefs 99 yards?!?

All Republicans in house, and 45 to 49 of 50 Republicans in senate would vote, right now, to overturn 2020 election and install Donald Trump as president for another term: move would be super popular with Republican voters.
Republican Party is a fully owned subsidiary of the Trump Family. There is no division or turmoil with the Party: crazy representative spouting xenophobic, racist, Islamophobic, antisemitic crap is not being censured by the Party because (1) they agree with her (2) base loves it.
Mainstream media, their own legitimacy built on false equivalency of the parties & false reverence for our crumbling institutions, is desperate to legitimize Republican Party, even as they very publicly backed an insurrection & would obviously end the republic to regain power.
