It was just a few hours after news of yet another mass shooting, this time in Western Maryland, came out. Three more people dead, this time at a workplace. Just about all the boxes are checked now. Schools. Malls. Grocery Stores. Movie Theaters. Concerts. Work.

I sat down in the basement alone, and turned on the January 6 hearings. They were easy to find. Every major network covered them except for Fox, who are directly culpable in the insurrection and thus doing their best to stick fingers in their ears and chant "nah nah nah nah". Fox prime-time featured nearly 3 straight hours with no commercials......so fearful were they that somebody might flippantly change the channel during a break in the action and see one of Hannity's text messages pledging everlasting Trumpy fealty, when he wasn't suggesting the 25th amendment, plastered on the hearing room wall.
