I think people really need to step back and think about what divides us and what we have in common. The horrible insurrection that occurred on Jan 6th proved that our nation is still under threat from the extremists within our midst. We have more in common that most folks seem to understand. I believe there are people working hard to help keep our democracy from crashing and burning.

This is an interesting article about the efforts of a conservative judge who is determined to help prevent a constitutional crisis.

Conservative jurist J. Michael Luttig said on June 16 had Vice President Mike Pence declared Donald Trump president it would've plunged America into a "constitutional crisis."(The Washington Post) Embedded video link

"Donald Trump and his supporters and allies are a clear and present danger to American democracy," Luttig told the committee on live television. But Luttig wasn't just condemning Trump and Trumpism. He was trying to bring a nation to its senses. "We Americans no longer agree on what is right or wrong, what is to be valued and what is not, what is acceptable behavior and not, and what is and is not tolerable discourse in civilized society," he said. "America is adrift." www.yahoo.com/...

There is no point for me to repost what is in this article, so I admonish folks to watch & listen to the embedded video, as well as to read the entire article I’ve posted a link to above.
