My first time there. A few tours of all the monuments, then a Capital Building tour. The feeling of history and the many people who have been part of this county is at first deeply moving and inspires reverence. Then, for me, images from Jan 6 took over and it was just overwhelming. Sad, nauseating, infuriating, all of that.
The complete lack of respect and honor for what has been created, and deliberate violence against all the buildings and people that represent our great county will haunt me forever.
Maybe the special counsel will at last bring some sort of consequence to the orange malignancy and those who helped organize the riots. I hold out great hope.

Ending the week with the passing of the Inflation Reduction Act, historic legislation that will greatly benefit the whole county.
And, the long overdue but fantastic spectacle of justice finally being rained down on tfg.
Sure wish the our party and leadership were being heralded in media a whole lot more, but again, the orange freak is dominating. At least all the news for that mess is coming from a lot of directions, and none of it is good. We are hopeful, finally, he and his minions will get what they deserve, and our country can get past his toxicity.
