    "With public sentiment nothing can fail; without it nothing can succeed. Consequently, he who moulds public sentiment, goes deeper than he who enacts statutes or pronounces decisions. He makes statutes and decisions possible or impossible to be executed." - Abraham Lincoln.

        Lincoln's speeches in the 1860s are more poetic, poignant & sad, but the Lincoln speeches of the 1850s, when he was still in his 40s & making his name, always get me fist-pumping. They're combative, partisan, passionate, full of stirring history, bracing logic, & cutting sarcasm.

        Lincoln was a peaceable man, sensitive & empathetic, & the war wore on him. But he was no shrinking violet. He was an argumentative lawyer, a gleeful fighter in the political arena, a shrewd & calculating political strategist & an earthy frontiersman.

        “[Pelosi] would often point to a portrait of Abraham Lincoln when he was a member of Congress and remind her colleagues of his famous quote”

        Oregon GOP Rep. Mike Nearman has just been charged with two crimes after video shows him leaving his seat in the middle of an emergency closed-door session on covid relief in Dec. to let insurrectionists into the building. He then went back in at a different entrance. pic.twitter.com/yRwDnLj34F
