I know who to trust and it isn't the right wing media that drove Mr. Peart crazy.

...This was one lesson from the brave Israelites’ story. (click here) His experiences over the last two years had left him wondering if it was the right one. The facts of the Jan. 6 riot have been documented in more than 14,000 hours of video surveillance from the Capitol, hundreds of hours of congressional testimony and millions of pages of documents. The truth was out there, available for all to see. But Peart still didn’t know who to trust. Nor, it seemed, did the country.

Peart was in the same chair that he had been sitting in during his sentencing hearing, in a part of America where many still questioned the outcome of the 2020 election and viewed the rioters’ cause as legitimate.

He fingered his leather-bound Bible and struggled to reconcile the fearful far-right voices that he had long relied on with his comfortable life, the federal judge’s compassion and, most of all, Jung’s kindness and mercy.

“I know who my God is,” Peart said. “But I’m still figuring out who I am.”

There is no doubt in the 2020 elections. These Americans are confused about their own idea of democracy. They remind me of a suitor that can't make a commitment to a girlfriend enough to get married. These Americans are caught in the faux parallel universe of right wing media that taps them for the money they spend on their advertisers.

As far as I am concerned they are nothing but a bunch of sore losers that hang on to a faux parallel reality created to tap their money for products and politics.

This is an easy one. Americans have to commit their belief in their constitution and its election process. It is the largest number of democratic voters in the world. There is no other democracy with such vibrant differences in their perspectives. All that is legal up to the point where it undermines the rule of law for the sake of growing extremism for profit.

I have no use for Right Wing Whiners. They are pathetic.

There is one flag and it is defined by the USA Constitution. Get over it!
