Anyone know status on Merrick Garland confirmation hearing?

Want some inspiration? While the world has been distracted, change has been happening anyway.
I had no idea there were this many...
There is no one more perfect than Joe Biden for this time in American history.
I have thought that ever since he became the nominee, that he was best suited to put things back together because of his experience - because he knows how it all works when it's working, and he knows who to choose for what jobs. But the more I see of him, the more I think everything about him makes him exactly the right person for this time and it goes far beyond just his experience to the very core of who he is as a person.
Wondering how intelligent people become brainwashed members of a violent cult?
I see many references to Trump followers being stupid. They are not all stupid. I know two people who are very intelligent but buy everything they hear on Fox and support Trump. This interview from Jan. 12 provides a lot of insight into the workings of those minds.
This is well worth the listen. Hassan was in the Moonies and understands cults from the inside out, having been there himself and knowing what it takes to deprogram.
"This week, Katie Couric spoke to Dr. Steven Hassan, who is an expert on Undue Influence, brainwashing, and cults. He writes and speaks out about the importance of viewing terrorist groups as destructive cults, and has authored numerous books on the subject, including one called "The Cult of Trump: A Leading Cult Expert Explains How the President Uses Mind Control." They discussed the events of the Capitol insurrection, and how the mob of violent Trump supporters displayed cult-like behavior."
