Bill, wonderfully said.

In the explosion of high moral dudgeon about the Biden pardon, which shrivels in importance to Trump's naming his own Lavrentiy Beria, too many people took their eye off the ball.

I guess I can live with people indulging in their Two Minute Hate of Biden as long as we can all get back to the real threats. Your post is a useful corrective.

And come to think of it, I'm coming to the opinion that the anger isn't about the pardon per se but the release of pent-up anger towards Biden for his role in the events that led us to getting Trump again. A very human reaction to be sure, but it's time to put such things away and reengage with the task that we've been handed.
