Just a comment on some of the wording. Saying that Repubs other than Liz Cheney have "gone silent" is a softball. Repubs that are oh so careful with their wording when answering Trump questions and silent otherwise are not just showing less principle than Liz, they are screaming a complete lack of ethics, integrity, honesty and respect for our country, our constitution, states' rights and intelligent people of every political bent. Elected Reps doing this are not saving a place at the future table, that seat is already gone. The time to keep it was in the days after Jan 6 but your fellow conservatives that you likely voted into office chose to be pussies. These Repubs are even worse than the nutjobs because THEY KNOW BETTER.they know how wrong it would be to devolve into authoritarianism, declare Christianity the 'national religion' and sessentially Trumpify the US at all official levels of government. And you can stand back and critique Democrats all you want about not having the 'chops' to save Democracy. Dems don't know how to do organized manipulation & dishonesty and wouldn't do it even if they knew it had to be done, which they don't. Where are the calls from Conservatives like you for elected Repubs to secure election integrity? All Repubs saying election was stolen should be expected to be working the problem & restoring faith in the system. W

Are you writing McCarthy and McConnell and Cruz & the rest regularly to bring them back to a reasonable conservative stance, or are waiting to watch what happens?
