Quote of the Day

 "The cheerleading, or at best indifference, by Democratic Party supporters and much of the left to these show trials will come back to haunt them. We are exacerbating the growing tribalism and political antagonisms that will increasingly express themselves through violence. We are complicit, once again, of using the courts to carry out vendettas. We are corroding democratic institutions. We are hardening the ideology and rage of the far-right. We are turning those being hounded to prison into political prisoners and martyrs. We are moving ever closer towards tyranny."

Chris Hedges, from his article titled, "Lynching the Deplorables."

In short: be careful when cheering that "your side" of politics is winning by questionable means and tactics because power shifts regularly and someday your "enemies" may return the favor.
