ONE. One GOPer attended the 1/6 event to commemorate the heroes that saved democracy.

We are in deep shit with these election deniers. A divided nation with a seriously compromised, morally bankrupt soon-to-be Speaker. How many House Members refused subpoenas to the 1/6 Committee? They should all be removed from the positions that they swore an oath to. And a new batch of un-sworn (tell me it makes a difference) are ready to willingly join the big lie team. Apparently, we have no mechanism to do that either. Insurrection and sedition appear to be fair game with no repercussions. Right?

but not rabid and bat-shit crazy. I knew some. Had good, respectful conversations with them. We basically cared aboutthe same things.
No longer. The "party" is completely destroyed as folks like David Jolly and Joe Walsh point out every day.

a name I will update. Just conveying what I heard on cable "news." Only watch MSNBC, C-Span and to a lesser degree CNN.
