Don't STOP THESE VIDEOS! You have a great advantage over Substack writers who are not journalists. You have spent a lifetime making and hunting contacts. You know where to go to find information. You've taken your habits with you!! Good job and good luck!!
This was horrifying though not surprising, and definitely helpful. I don't always remember to leave a comment on all the wonderful content The Contrarian is sending out to us, but I am grateful for every item! Thank you.
I found the prospect of vigilantism particularly terrifying. It's not just the mob that stormed the Capitol, it's all those people who hear the dictator's dog whistle and want to hurt others in the name of their false god.
Is it unrealistic to expect that once they notice how poor they are getting, despite his promise to immediately cure inflation, that some will finally wake up and see him for what he truly is: a huckster that snookered them all?
The New York Times did a terrific video of the events of Jan. 6 that shows the violence and carnage and lays out how it all unfolded. It's available on Youtube (so no paywall). I encourage everyone to share it to rebut The Big Lie.

Chaos is the tactic Trump has encouraged and revels in its aftermath.
I said this to a friend this morning, that it will embolden others to harm others.
Trump is taking away our "capacity to respond"!!!
Only if we let him.
I quoted Dr Miller-Idriss in an essay I wrote about resentment in politics
