New footage shows congressional leadership at Fort McNair on January 6, scrambling to save the US Capitol

Never-before-seen footage, obtained exclusively by CNN, shows in vivid new detail how congressional leaders fled the US Capitol on January 6 and transformed a nearby military base into a command center, where they frantically coordinated with Vice President Mike Pence and Trump Cabinet members to quell the insurrection and finish certifying the 2020 election. 

I love how Josh Hawley was running out of the Capitol the same time Nancy Pelosi was putting on hand wraps and tape looking for Donald Trump. - Tony Posnanski

Putin Says What? 

Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Friday there was no need for massive new strikes on Ukraine and that Russia was not looking to destroy the country.

The Dumbing Down Of Mississippi's Children Continues...

A Mississippi judge on Thursday blocked a state law that put $10 million of federal pandemic relief money into infrastructure grants for private schools.

The ruling by Hinds County Chancery Judge Crystal Wise Martin is a victory for Parents for Public Schools. The nonprofit group sued to block the program, arguing that the funding gives private schools a competitive advantage over public schools.

I’m gonna help MAGA out since they are already clutching their pearls over Pelosi’s comment about wanting to punch Trump out on 1/6/21. If you *didn’t* want to punch Trump out on January 6th, you are not an actual patriot. And your guy sent a mob of armed terrorists to KILL HER. - Andrew Wortman
