- None of Trump's staffers should have been surprised by the violence the president was willing to overlook on January 6th, Jeffrey C. Isaac writes, pointing to various catalogs of the violence of his rhetoric going back for years. For just one example,#
- Back in 2016 Trump notoriously threatened “second amendment solutions” against Hillary Clinton, and while in office he regularly invoked this rhetoric.#
- It's important that some of them are finally speaking up, but, says Isaac, it's too late in the day to deserve high praise, "And none of them have any business presenting themselves now as heroes of democracy."#
- I signed up for a committee that's going to help draft a section of the county's 20-year plan. As the different topics were being introduced for the various committees, the speaker kept saying that they overlapped. This seemed crucial.#
- The farmland preservation committee overlaps with the environmental protection committee. The quality of life committee overlaps with both. The government policy committee probably overlaps with all of the other groups. And so forth.#
- I was looking for a way to talk about that and this thought crossed my mind, especially for impoverished country towns and city neighborhoods, for declining industries and sites of racial and ethnic oppression: What kinds of changes would make it easier for the children to want to stay and live their lives here?#
- It's a different question, maybe, on a farm and in a small town and in an urban neighborhood, but it's a question that pierces through everything. We need friends and family to hang around if we are really going to have the best options in life. We need them to have a good shot at jobs and health and happiness and safety, at education and decent housing, all the things that make a decent life. No matter their religion or their cultural background, people want young people to see that they have a chance.#
- It's a question that might illuminate all the government groups. My first impression.#
