The Coupprint 0

Will Bunch suggests that the plan of Donald Trump and his dupes, symps, and fellow travelers to overthrow the results of the 2020 election, as revealed in a Powerpoint presentation obtained from Mark Meadows, deserves far more attention than it’s getting. Here’s a bit from Bunch’s article; follow the link for the rest.

Even though it should have been obvious in real time — an angry mob, urged by Trump himself first to come to Washington on Jan. 6 and then to march on the U.S. Capitol, where there was a violent clash with police, injuring some 150 officers and killing five, thus disrupting Congress and the certification of Biden’s victory for hours — the new disclosures have brought into sharper focus what the president’s men knew and when they knew it. Jan. 6 was a far greater threat to American democracy than Watergate, or anything else that’s happened since the first shots at Fort Sumter. Now, the questions are becoming less about what we know, and more about … what are we going to do about this?

One Thing Is Not Like the Other Thing 0

With all due respect to Clyde Evely, “suspension of disbelief” and willfull abandonment of reality are not the same thing.

Aside:

The fabled panic created by Orson Welles’s War of the Worlds broadcast, to which Evely refers, was not as remembered in popular folklore (we covered this in my Sociology 101 class [mumble] years ago, for Pete’s sake). It affected a very small portion of the audience, mostly persons who listened to other radio shows and tuned into War of the Worlds after it was already about 15 minutes in and who lived in the area of New Jersey where the drama was set.

It’s not that persons disregarded the disclaimer at the beginning of the broadcast. It’s that they weren’t listening when the disclaimer was aired.

By the way, you can listen to that broadcast at the OTR Network Library.

Misdirection Play, Supply Change Dept. 0

At the Idaho State Journal, Nick Gier cuts through the caterwauling and continues to the crux. A nugget:

This supply chain problem, starting in early 2020, is worldwide, and President Joe Biden, who was not yet the Democrat’s nominee, obviously had nothing to do with it. It is just as absurd to blame the Dutch prime minister for the record number of cargo ships waiting to unload at Rotterdam, Europe’s largest port.cuts

CRT: Corrosive Racist Tactics 0

Writing at Above the Law, Chris Williams explains how the right-wing is using their made-up anguish oover “critical race theory” as a Trojan horse to fuel the culture war and recruit new adherents. Here’s a tiny bit of his piece:

Conservative activist and Manhattan Institute fellow Christopher Rufo said the quiet part out loud and openly admitted that the plan was to group any and all “cultural insanities” under the CRT umbrella back in March.
