It's not broccoli we're talking about.

 

Two fresh heads of broccoli in the pan they will shortly get cooked in.
Before cooking

Apparently, if one is President of the United States, even if one is installed by a minority of the popular vote, it is  perfectly okay to proclaim that one doesn't like broccoli and the role of #Potus allows one to proclaim that one is not going to eat broccoli anymore.


However, if one is President of the United States, also installed after winning a minority of the popular vote and one wants to ignore boatloads of both legal and security advice, there are grownups in the room, or in the case in the Beast, the Presidential Limousine who will prevent one from commandeering a vehicle and heading off on a joyride to an insurrection.


RantWoman asked Youtube for Cassidy Hutchison testimony and this video of today's hearing of the House Speical Committee on January 6 from a Fox News channel in Atlanta was the first whole hearing to pop up. Interesting, very interesting considering Faux Snooze previous refusal to broadcast any of the hearings. After the fact, Twitter has someone from Fox News using the word "devastating." However, the end of the video contains VERY blunt words from both the Chair and the co-chair about what sounds like tampering or intimidation of witnesses. RantWoman hopes those words are heeded.


RantWoman is also thinking about what it must be like for an idealistic professional young woman to speak in the way Ms. Hutchison is speaking.


The video here is an interesting artifact. It never cuts away from the principles to video played in the hearing or projected images.

Also the comments feed along the side is both horrifying and morbidly fascinating.


God help us all.
