Still Rising Again after All These Years 0
At the Idaho State Journal, Michael Corrigan remembers Donald Trump’s (and yes, it was his, as he instigated it) January 6th insurrection.
The image that haunts me is the insurgent walking around the Capitol carrying a Confederate flag.

Aside:
Many years ago, in the early years of my career at Amtrak, I lived in an apartment building named Fort Ward Towers (I think it since went condo) in Alexandria, Va., and, I must say, I had a fun three years there. Right across the street was Fort Ward Park, which preserved a bit of Fort Ward, one the 27 I think it was Civil War forts that ringed Washington during that conflict. It was quiet, pleasurable place, and my roommates and I would visit it from time to time.
Fort Ward is a museum piece.
But the South is still rising again and the war is not over.
