The Atlantic comes thru!

<<Here they were, a coalition of the willing: deadbeat dads, YouPorn enthusiasts, slow students, and MMA fans. They had heard the rebel yell, packed up their Confederate flags and Trump banners, and GPS-ed their way to Washington. After a few wrong turns, they had pulled into the swamp with bellies full of beer and Sausage McMuffins, maybe a little high on Adderall, ready to get it done. Like Rush Limbaugh before them, they were in search of their own Presidential Medals of Freedom, and like Donald Trump himself, they were ready to relieve themselves on the withering soul of the nation and the marble floors of the Capitol building. Out of darkness we were born and into darkness we were returning.
If they were animated by any idea, it was that America had somehow gone off track. It had something to do with feminism. It had something to do with Obama-ism. It had something to do with “globalism” and “Marxism.” In other words: It’s the Jews again. Didn’t Trump walk through a cloud of tear gas to hold up a Bible when it was all going down in Washington? Wasn’t he the only one holding the line against the Jews and the Blacks and the satanic pedophiles trying to take over the country?>>

Funny, I thought about how amusing it was that those clowns followed the velvet ropes when seeing some of those shots the other day. Aragorn the Lectern thief made sure to follow them as he exited with his treasure

Tailgating after a raider victory waiting for the traffic to thin out we started partying with the guys next to us in the lot. We were flush with green so we smoked them out. We're all having fun and laughing when out of nowhere the smallest guy in their group cold cocks me in the jaw. In my stupor I absorb the hit and fall to the ground. I'm happy as a clam and uninjured. Meanwhile my buddies and the other guys buddies are flexing for a fight that no one wanted.
I pop up on my feet laughing my ass off which helped diffuse the situation. Once the little guy realized he couldn't hurt me his buddies reigned him in.
Weird we in a luxury box for the 2nd half. Intel's lawyers box. A friend had a friend
Never wanted to go back to a Raider game but the new stadium in vegas looks awesome

I thought Caitlin Flanagan's take-down of the insurrection was brilliant, and particularly enjoyed this line: "The Founders’ worst fear—that a bunch of dumbasses would elect a tyrant—had come to pass."
Although not quite as sassy, Jane Mayer had an interesting profile of one of the insurrectionists in the New Yorker:
