Steven BeschlossEither there’s rule of law or there isn’t. It’s not a question of the office someone held or their ability to incite violence.

When a school board, a library or a state bans books, it’s not a show of strength. It’s a sign they’re ruled by fear. Fear of knowledge. Fear of opposing views. Fear of democracy.
They don’t cheer for 12 million new jobs. They don’t cheer for quality education, expanded health care or billionaires paying the same tax rate as firefighters. They surely don’t cheer for democracy. Once again, the Republicans told us what kind of America they want.
What does it say about the US justice system that over two years after the Capitol attack and deadly insurrection, its ringleader is not only still unindicted, he’s still inciting violence and plotting to retake office?
The insurrection is not over.
The self-serving Kevin McCarthy is continuing the Trump pattern of promoting incompetent people and giving them greater access to the levers of power. A tragedy for the country.
As the Kevin McCarthy chaos plays out and the Republicans demonstrate their inability to govern, let’s not forget that almost exactly two years ago 139 House Republicans voted against certifying the presidential election. They remain an anti-democratic danger.
I think 2023 will be the year of multiple Trump indictments—and that will be a happy new year, indeed.
Qasim Rashid, Esq.I love closing out the year with this. 😊
On December 31, 1995, exactly 27 years ago today, legendary cartoonist Bill Watterson published his final 'Calvin and Hobbes' comic strip.
How beautiful and appropriate it was, and a timeless reminder of what we have before us in 2023. ❤️
Happy New Year, ya'll!
Would there be a George Santos without a Donald Trump modeling pathological lying—and getting away with it?
