And Babbit has been made into a right-wing martyr. Secret Service took their job seriously and fired once the house chamber itself was being actively breached. Capitol Police were in a shit position without backup, and the backlash against the whistleblowers who called out the delayed National Guard response was disgusting

You can tell the quality of a culture by their heroes.

They worship a lying, treasonous rapist as the highest moral value.

A crazed woman with a knife trying to break into our nation's capital is considered a true patriot.

This goes far beyond 'personal opinion', the right wing is a detriment to our Democracy and need to be treated as such.
