This is a good compare and contrast with the Russian protesters and the American insurrectionists. It's a shame that some here are giving moral equivalency to both causes, when one is clearly righteous, and the other evil. Political tribalism has led to many here minimizing the evil(the Capitol Riots), while downplaying the protests in Russia as being somehow equivalent to what recently happened here in the US. Good column.

"American citizens are being arrested for attacking the center of our democracy, in many cases as part of an apparent attempt to kill our political figures." When I'm on dialysis, I listen to Dave Webb trying to walk these yahoo's off the ledge on his radio show. Pat they go on and on and repeat themselves. They get hotter and hotter, to the point that any reason fails. I'm sad to see Oath Keepers join the nuttery, they had somr promise years ago but quickly drank the moonshine.
