“If you abuse the public trust, we’re going to find you, and we’re going to prosecute you.”
—Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Missouri), as Missouri attorney general but who subsequently voted against conviction in Trump’s impeachment trial and who voted to reject Pennsylvania’s electoral votes just hours after giving that fist bump to insurrectionists who swarmed the Capitol.
[Tell your congressman],”’If you don’t start supporting election integrity, I’m coming after you, Madison Cawthorn is coming after you. Everybody’s coming after you.’”
—US Rep. Madison Cawthorn (R-NC), addressing a conservative rally in Florida in December 2020.
“I believe that this was agitators strategically placed inside of this group—you can call them antifa, you can call them people paid by the Democratic machine.”
—Madison Cawthorn, on the Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection, but sans any proof of his claim.

Today’s gospel was: “Jesus said to his disciples: ‘Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but underneath are ravenous wolves’.”
Does anyone believe that these aspiring autocrats, once they achieve power would distinguish in their rule and thirst for more power between those who supported them and those who did not? Of course not, all would suffer equally under their abuse of power and willingness to suppress people and the press until they have achieved absolute control of our lives. Look abroad for the results: China, Russia, North Korea, Vietnam, Turkey, and the list goes on. Are these countries being overrun by people trying to get in?
These quotes seem to be propaganda of the finest order….just say what folks want to hear at any given moment. I learned how to recognize propaganda in high school civics….has public education stopped teaching Civics all together? Civics was a required subject back in the 1950s in Louisiana….wait, a lot of these old codgers are my age….did they fail Civics????
