Some of Us Find the Ukrainians To Be Inspiring, But Not All

It certainly is remarkable that the bravery of Ukrainians of all ages isn’t inspiring us Americans to do a better job in defending our democracy.

Both in congress and in the electorate as a whole, there are far too many people who look at the  January 6th insurrection as a non-event, i.e., “legitimate political discourse,” and see it as something that our nation simply needs to put behind us and forget.  Many of them still believe that Trump won the election, and that the evidence of this has somehow not yet come forth.

It’s said that “you don’t know what you got till it’s gone.”  Let’s hope that’s not the case here.
