Arguably, the most lawless day in DC was Jan. 6, 2021. Another question: How much of the 1billion Trump’s “big beautiful budget” cut from the DC budget was for cops and law enforcement?

Today’s history lesson: The Watergate break-in was often dismissed as a “third rate burglary.”
What brought Nixon down was not the crime but the coverup.
