The amount of info coming in about last week's violent revolt combined with the chatter about potential upcoming conflicts is rather overwhelming.

some very interesting equivalence here they were "Nativists" and also into maintaining a sort of tribal anarchism

....The violence of the Plug Uglies and other political clubs had an important impact on Baltimore. It was largely responsible for the creation of modern policing and a paid, professional fire department, as well as court and electoral reforms.These reforms, together with the election of a Reform municipal administration in October 1860 and then the Civil War, led to the breaking up of the Plug Uglies.

Yeah the whole thing is "The Green Zone" just like the old days in Baghdad. But still they may have also gotten your voice mails? I just heard on the local news ("News 12") that most of the ceremony will still be virtual--they were doing a segment of which NYC celebs would be the "in person" part of it. (Actually kinda following the model of this years New Year's Eve in Times Square, only with 20,000 National Guard added? They would be planning something like that anyway because of Covid?)

Hoping? THEY DID IT BECAUSE

Hoping? THEY DID IT BECAUSE OF YOU. From now on you're the Mall Man, like it or not. A question if they can build a moat on the path to the Capitol in this little time, but if they do, i can only imagine what happens to your head.

National Mall will be closed

National Mall will be closed on Inauguration Day due to security concerns.

I was really hoping they would do that.
