    Yeah, sigh. That said, while I don’t love it, if this is what it takes to take the orange bastard down for good, I’m all for it. It’s just too important.

      Agreed it’s the most important part. And it’s going to have to be very well done clear cut evidence to make him face series repercussions, so I’m with that. But man I hate seeing these insurrectionists facing no significant punishment. People storming the capital are facing years in prison while the people who orchestrated it go free.

        My cousin’s husband is currently doing 5 years for his role in January 6, so I have a first-hand link to it all and agree with you about the apparent dichotomy.

        That said, my cousin is definitely the black sheep in the family and while I did meet her husband once, and he seemed like a perfectly nice guy, she also refuses to admit that her mother, my aunt, died of COVID as opposed to a coincidental bout of pneumonia. It’s fuckin’ weird and the rest of my family doesn’t really know what to make of it.

        I mostly feel sorry for my uncle who is in his 80s and is now having to deal with this bullshit on the part of his daughter, when he should be chilling and enjoying his last years.

          My wife has a family member who got deep into drugs years ago. She tried to help him, but he would lie to get money for drugs, take advantage of her, and didn’t want help. I think of having a family member getting deep into the MAGA stuff as like that. Like you’ve not only lost them, but they become toxic. There’s no way to convince them the conspiracies aren’t real, and you end up just cutting them out of your life.
