This will likely be my last post for this blog. Not to beat a VERY dead horse, but the disgraceful Trump Administration should be remembered for all time by this article and podcast.
Bonus episode: Inside the craziest meeting of the Trump presidency

President Trump's private schedule hadn't included appointments for Powell or the others: former national security adviser Michael Flynn, former Overstock.com CEO Patrick Byrne, and a little-known former Trump administration official, Emily Newman.

The article ends with a link to the definitive podcast post mortem to the Trump Administration:, Trump's Last Stand Part V: Where It Ends, detailing the siege on the Capital on January 6.
“In this episode of How It Happened: Trump's Last Stand, national political correspondent Jonathan Swan tracks the unfolding of the Capitol insurrection on January 6, revealing what happened in the Senate and at the White House — and what it means.”
Well worth listening to this excellent 30-minute podcast.
