Just now in court:
It is not patriotism, it is not standing up for America, it is not legitimate political discourse, and it is not justified to descend on the nations Capitol at the direction of a disappointed candidate and disrupt the electoral process, it is the definition of tyranny, of authoritarianism, Berman Jackson said. Attacking the law enforcement officers trying to preserve order in our seat of government, trying to protect the public servants in the building, isnt patriotism either.

Maybe if we all hold hands and wash hard enough?
And I imagined, sort of, a group hand washing event in progress while everyone was standing in a circle holding hands... it was a little odd and, thankfully, didn't last long after I started laughing.
Seriously, dyslexia can be funny sometimes.

Anyhoo - we all need some comedy amongst the tragedies.
