After reading your piece, Michaelangelo, I can't help but conjure in my mind's eye a classic line from the movie "Mississippi Burning." After Agent Ward has finally decided to do things Agent Anderson's way, they arrange on false pretenses for the Klan to meet in a church that they've wired for sound.

As soon as the Grand Dragon appears in his Cadillac, it's obvious that they've been set up, so he tells them to shut up, but not of course until they've revealed who the weak link is. The camera cuts to a tape recorder, sitting on the front seat of a car nearby occupied by the FBI agents listening. "Looks like the rattlesnakes are starting to commit suicide," Agent Anderson says.

That's what we'll see on Wednesday. A bunch of rattlesnakes who will start to commit suicide right before our very eyes. The irony of the image imprinted on the Gadsden flag is not lost on me, given their ubiquity at the January 6 insurrection, right next to Trump and confederate flags.

DeMoron is now using violent imagery to attract the orange nazi's depraved base. He's saying he'll "slit throats" and "smash kneecaps" his first day in office. What does this do for the American people? Any normal person would be offended by such vulgar language.
