Romney is furious.

I have lots of issues with Romney. And I often counter and disagree people I know relentlessly praising him for just being anti-Trump or whatever.

But he is in the right here. And he is speaking the truth, and I respect him for it.

Now that the dust has settled, I hope we can all at least recognize that those calling for the police to fire on the protestors was absolutely insane.  They handled the situation absolutely appropriately and minimized the carnage.  The Congress is already back in session and it doesn't appear that there is any irreparable damage.  It could have been a LOT worse if people had let their emotions direct them.

Nope!

Yeah.  You're gross.

A fascist coup was attempted in our nation's capital by a horde of doughy incels, and the Capitol Police literally opened the gates to let them in. If that doesn't earn your condemnation, then you are beyond the event horizon of authoritarianism.

Grow up.
I didn’t know being obliviously blind to reality was the sign of a mature adult. Maybe a mature cog in the machine, but not as a human adult.

Romney, as the only Republican to vote for Trump's impeachment in either House of Congress, is the only Republican who has credibility in condemning Trump for what he has done.

If Romney acted a little more like this and less like a Thatcherite Robot in 2012 he might have had a better chance.

I don't think me 8-9 years ago would have ever thought Romney would one day be a national hero, but wow.

Jean Shaheen speeches are like if I wrote a speech at the last minute while very drunk and then someone edited it to sound professional. Love that she name-dropped Bidzina Ivanishvili in a 5 minute speech after a forcible takeover of the Capitol.
