GODDAMN THESE PEOPLEI thought: I study countries that do this. I didnt think it would happen in my own country, Rice, a Republican who teaches political science at Stanford University, said Wednesday on ABCs The View.
The assault on democratic processes that day, as protesters sought to interrupt the certification of the presidential election, was wrong, Rice acknowledged but she qualified that its time for lawmakers to move on.
The former White House officials comments were a response in agreement to remarks Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) gave on Tuesday. McConnell told reporters it was time for lawmakers to be talking about the future and not the past, referring to the discussion about false claims of election fraud pushed by Trump and his allies, which ultimately led supporters to storm the Capitol on Jan. 6. McConnell said the issue should no longer be of concern.

And to boot, the Big Lie is pure fiction, Sedition Day is pure fact.

Maybe Dick Cheney should take her hunting and explain why his daughter isn't "moving on."
