      I caught the end of the speech. Maybe this is just me. When previous President's spoke, like Obama, Clinton, Bush, I felt like they believed what they were saying. It came through in their affect as they spoke. When I listened to Biden today, I felt he was just reading lines and trying to do it with emotion.

President Trump, where are you? You better do a press conference, man. We are rotting in jail because we stood up for what you told us to stand up for!” - Edward Jacob Lang during a January 5, 2022 phone interview

          Lang was arrested and jailed on January 16, 2021. He remains in jail, while he awaits trial on the charge of attacking a police officer with a baseball bat.
          He needs to be tried, but he doesn't need to spend a year in jail waiting for justice, as so many of the alleged "insurrectionists" have.

          If he assaulted an officer of the law with a baseball bat, he needs to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the applicable law.

              EGGzackly --- it appeared he was reading, and "they" said "be sure to look angry --- show emotion!". It's elder abuse, I tell ya!

                That's just too rich...

                Dick Cheney says he's 'deeply disappointed' with GOP leadership on Jan. 6 anniversary

                The former vice president told ABC News the Jan. 6 anniversary is an "important historical event," and "you can't overestimate how important it is." Cheney added, "I'm deeply disappointed we don't have better leadership in the Republican Party to restore the Constitution." He also said the Republican Party's leadership is "not a leadership that resembles any of the folks I knew when I was here for ten years," per Politico.

                ABC News' Ben Siegel reports that Democrats "one by one" came over to introduce themselves to Dick Cheney and shake his hand. The New York Times White House correspondent Peter Baker wrote that there was "something surreal about watching Pelosi and other Democrats happily greeting Dick Cheney, once their bete noire," suggesting it "says something about how Trump has changed the nature of our politics."

                      I think he's just ornery that he didn't get to shoot anyone, and the capitol hill cop did.

                        Yes, the ONLY death that day directly attributable to the riot was an unarmed woman shot by a very nervous trigger-happy Capitol Police Officer.

                                My son's history teacher talked about this today, said that six people were killed during the "insurrection", and showed the class a video from YouTube that described the protest as a violent uprising bent on destroying the United States. I set my son straight by simply telling him the facts
                                Some may call me foolish, and some may call me odd
                                But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
                                Than a fool in the eyes of God
