    I mean, what the Hell have we been doing for the last 3 years? Journalists, historians, and other folks have really been ringing this bell since 2016, and started ringing it louder on January 6, 2021. You can only scream the truth so loudly, and hand-wringing that people “aren’t talking about it enough” when it has been said publicly by high-profile folks for years seems disingenuous and written to generate clicks.

    Yeah, we know. We keep saying it. Stop trying to make it seem like you’re the only one who has the chutzpah to say it out loud.

      The problem is that it’s just another partisan divide and there aren’t a lot of people on the conservative side of the aisle willing to say it. And those that do get thrown into political exile.
