“Trump tried to steal an election
… and, so far, none of these defenders have mounted a serious defense against the charge. Instead, they carp about the lack of Trump defenders on the committee. As far as it goes, it’s a fair complaint. It just doesn’t go very far. Heck, even Donald Trump blames Kevin McCarthy for it. But there’s nothing stopping the carpers from offering a defense on TV or outside the hearing room.” — Jonah Goldberg.
How did Mike Pence become a RINO?
Gerard Baker in the Wall Street Journal
 :
“The stolen-election theory carries many of the requisite concoctions of all fabricated conspiracies. But none are as implausible as the premise that the people who stopped Mr. Trump from claiming his rightful re-election were all sinister figures conspiring to hand the reins of power to the illegitimate Joe Biden.
“Because it hasn’t been Adam Schiff and his comrades who have made the most effective case against Donald Trump. It has been Mr. Trump’s own, handpicked people. Think about the list of conspirators that you would have to conclude had somehow become late-convert enemies of Mr. Trump (and American democracy) to believe the former President’s story.
“Mike Pence, impeccable servant of the Republican Party, loyal (crueler observers might say servile) supporter of the former President, who sometime between Nov. 3 and Jan. 6 became a notorious RINO and traitor.
“William Barr, perhaps the most effective defender of Mr. Trump through the mostly manufactured controversies of his term, but who somehow became a double agent for Mr. Biden after the election.
“Gov. Brian Kemp of Georgia, who stood down Stacey Abrams’s race-baiting charges of a stolen election himself and proved himself a strong conservative in office but somehow plotted with fellow Republicans in the state to confirm a fraudulent victory for his political opponents.”
Get your shine box
Tom Nichols in The Atlantic Daily:
“The January 6 committee, however, deserves a great deal of credit for illuminating the dangerous mediocrities on whom Trump relied for his mischief — the men and women who were certain that their moment had finally arrived. These people — call them the Third String —t hought that they were finally going to The Show, and they were going to burn the Constitution if that’s what it took to stay there.
“Consider, for example, Jeffrey Bossert Clark, a minor Justice Department official who sought to oust his own boss and get Trump to make him the attorney general, after which Clark would try to overturn the election results. … Clark got his comeuppance in a meeting in the Oval Office when Acting Deputy Attorney General Richard Donoghue warned Trump that any such appointment would lead to mass resignations, and told Clark: “You’re an environmental lawyer. How about you go back to your office, and we’ll call you when there’s an oil spill.”
And then there’s John Eastman …

First, the movie doesn’t show what it says it shows.
• Cellphone tracking isn’t precise enough to distinguish between liberal activists stuffing drop boxes, and store owners, police officers, delivery men and others who have perfectly legitimate reasons to be within a few yards of the same drop box every day.
• In all five battleground states D’Souza considers, it is perfectly legal for third parties to drop off ballots for others, with varying degrees of lenience. …
• Even if every cellphone dot represented a left-wing organizer illegally dropping off another person’s ballot, that still wouldn’t make the ballot invalid. A legal ballot can be illegally delivered, although the guy who delivered it might be in trouble. — (More here.)

It seems he’s the perfect face for the movement. He joins other luminaries such as St. Beats Women and Children and St. Home Invasion Robbery.
This was only ever tangentially about George Floyd. Floyd was simply a handy fulcrum to advance agendas. For the hood rats, this was an opportunity to hobble the police. For the activists, this was an opportunity shake loose some grift. For the leftist this was an opportunity to undermine a society they loathe.
This is the garbage of society to lashing out with the support of soft headed white people.

After last night peaceful demonstration of how to start building bridges and lifting up the most vulnerable in society not sure the fascist antifascists. The mayor, council, dane county executives and governor and the tax delinquent lt governor are all allowing this destruction to continue. Even better they want to pass use of force rules that would not allow people of authority to protect society. Where have you have you gone Paul Soglin? Chief Koval?

When entertaining the thought of committing a crime, today’s young men do not have an “Inner No” to remind them of the consequences of their acts. No inner voice warns them that their behavior might merit a beating from The Dad. That’s because there is no dad.
The dissolution of the nuclear family must be laid at the feet of Democrat policies that go back decades. The Nanny State has replaced the lay-down-the-law father figure in the black community. Based on this young man’s rap sheet, light-on-crime judges, (like Everett Mitchell) let him skate on some very serious criminal acts. It’s therefore no surprise he thinks he can get away with continued bad behavior, because he’s been allowed to so far.
It was either Thomas Sowell or Walter Williams who said, “No good can come from exempting a certain group of people from basic, normal societal behavior.”
Yet, that’s exactly what the “light-on-law-and-order” Lefty Luddites have done.
And continue to do. That’s really bad policy. That’s really schtoopidt policy.

Two theories about what’s happening here:
1. The protesters are trying to discourage people from using city businesses, from living downtown, and even from driving in Madison (by unpredictable road blocks at any city location), to cause city businesses to fail, hence to reduce the city tax base, and hence to reduce available funding for the police. Madison will become a sick city, rich people will leave and poor people will take possession.
2. The protests are secretly directed by Trump’s agents, to scare rich people so they vote for Trump, hoping Trump will protect them or simply as a “screw you” to the protesters.
