Direct checks

Vaccine funding

Resources for schools

Rental assistance

Small biz help

Anti-poverty measures

And more

Marsha Blackburn responds to Biden's "Neanderthal" comments w/ impassioned defense of Neanderthals: "Neanderthals are hunter-gatherers, they're protectors of their family, they're resilient, they're resourceful, they tend to their own. So I think Joe Biden needs to rethink [it]."

Folks looking to make sense of Jan 6, QAnon, and the networks and historical influences that contributed to it may want to review these images outlining key themes. I will be referring back to these ideas in future work.

And these are the key historical events that led up to Jan 6. There are links back to each from the present moment.

Cancel culture, censorship & runaway wokeness have placed us on the edge of a “Cultural Revolution” where, like Mao, the goal is to destroy the “four olds” - old ideas, old customs, old habits and old culture.

Wake up to this insanity or social & political catastrophe await

Police request 60-day extension of Guard at US Capitol

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Capitol Police have requested that members of the National Guard continue to provide security at the U.S. Capitol for another two months, The Associated Press has learned. Defense officials say the new proposal is being reviewed by the Pentagon.

The request underscores the continuing concerns about security and the potential for violence at the Capitol, two months after rioters breached the building in violence that left five people dead. And it comes as law enforcement was on high alert Thursday around the U.S. Capitol after intelligence uncovered a “possible plot” by a militia group to storm the building.
