If Trump would just break his Twitter fingers and get out of the Dem's way...
“Cry havoc and let slip the DOGE of war!”
Those who cheered as J-6 American prisoners were locked in solitary for 18 months without trial, now suddenly fight tooth and nail for foreign terrorists’ "due process". — Buck Sexton

This country has gone completely insane. Every day I wake up and see something even more ridiculous than the last. We've had bearded Incels, sorry I meant libertarians, carrying rifles into government buildings in protest at having to wear a mask, riots and looting in the name of freedom, now we've got what looks like a bunch of extras from Absolutely Fabulous asking people to vote for them.

I noticed that the right-leaning insane stuff you mentioned is fringe, while the left-leaning stuff is mainstream. If it's happening in the middle of our halls of power and acted out by the highest of high status folk, I think it qualifies as mainstream.
Education is extremely important.

Repeating my post from elsewhere, specifically in response to Horace's of 9 hours ago and Phibes' just above:
"I wonder if we might validly find hope in the very flagrancy of all this. Surely the very over-the-topness of all that has occurred cannot sustain itself, and a big eyeblink must ensue where people regain their commonsense vision? Where they say, okay, wait a minute, let's take a breath here, dial back the sheer intensity.
How can this mad progression be sustained?"

I could also have added some stupid shit your president has said, but to be perfectly honest I'm sick of hearing about him.

True. Both parties seem like they are trying to race each other to the bottom. Not sure that is a race they should try and win.

"Peaceful protesters" attempt to burn down a church across the street from the White House, try to get onto the White House grounds. Capitol Police make the decision to move the destructive mob of "Peaceful protesters" back one block. After they've been moved back one block, Trump decides to walk to the church to show America that the police are able to keep things under control. The press jumps in and claims the "Peaceful protesters" were gassed and shot at with rubber bullets just so Trump could aggrandize himself with a photo op.
House democrats, from the safety of the Capitol, bring in lots of media to do a photo op showing them all kneeling. Not a damn one of them has done a damn thing to help end this mess, only finding every opportunity they can to take political advantage of the rioting, yet not one single word has been said calling them out for staging a photo op.
I just saw a video of a tractor trailer being forced to stop in the middle of the highway to avoid running over a few "peaceful protester". The MINUTE his truck stopped moving it was swarmed by literally hundreds of "Peaceful protesters" who covered every square inch of his truck and trailer like a swarm of ants, doing everything they could to damage the truck, and trying hard to drag the driver out of the truck so they could beat on him.
Obviously these "peaceful protesters don't have jobs or any other responsibilities to have the time to do this. It is time for the police to start killing them.

How do you figure both parties are doing that? I'd really like to hear some examples of republicans doing what the democrats are doing.

BTW, lot of muttering in the trucker community. Because of the volatility of some of these protests, some guys are turning down loads to certain cities.

There was a "march" in our town this week. It lasted from 12PM to 2PM.
That evening, the Mrs. and I decided to order in via Doordash. About half an hour after placing the order (for a 6PM delivery) I got a text saying, without explanation, that my order was cancelled. When I inquired why, I was told that delivery guys will not go to locations where a "demonstration" is being held.
