We are witnessing crimes in broad daylight in super slow motion.

Think about everything that has transpired since the election day theft. One year and one month plus. Each day, articles in all of the media not owned by the right wing - pundits and newscasters on all stations not Faux - there has been outrage, protest....

And yet it is a broad daylight series of crimes - a hacked/stolen election, destruction of so much that helps so many - a segment of christianity acting in exact opposite to the teachings - and on and on.

Our government has functioned pretty well for a long, long time - with a few wellknown hiccups, which were eventually repaired.

But this - this is something totally new - and we seem to have uncovered a flaw in our constitution and structures - we seem to be utterly powerless to stop our very own destruction, happening in super slow motion, for all to see.
