    My 7-year old's movie idea just now: What if the humans actually lived on the moon first and abducted the alien travelers who came to explore the moon. The humans brought the aliens to earth, then wiped the alien's memories and convinced the aliens that they were actually humans.

    Hawley's argument is that Congress is the venue for objecting to the election. It is not. Concerns about specific state elections should and were raised in the courts. They were rejected. There is no venue for Congress to adjudicate and resolve those issues.

    The storming of the capital hill was organized on social media. Time to stop acting like things said online don't translate into real-world action.

    Police tear gassed peaceful Democratic protestors so that Trump could hold a Bible for the cameras. But pro-Trump protestors have successfully breached the US Capitol building without so much as a single pepper ball. Funny how that works out.

    An absolute disgrace! Any other country would call this a coup. If this was any other group they'd be tear gassed or worse. The silence of enablers has fueled this and now here we are.

    Your violent thugs are launching a coup at the US Capitol, and it’s all on YOU and your horrific antics since losing the election. Stop this madness now before it ends in tragedy.
