Since there seem to be a lot of people who are not US citizens that frequent this site, I think they should hear what an actual American and former military contractor has to say about the most recent updates. Beau of the Fifth Column is a voice of reason and progress coming out of (surprise!) Florida. This is his newest video and his takes on Trump's bullshit "plea for an orderly transition of power." This is the actual United States of America, not Trump's cultists.
LegalEagle is also a good channel. Since he's a lawyer and it's a US legal code-focused channel he tends to focus purely on the law which can be pretty insightful. The video I linked here is the only one I've seen since I subscribed to him where shows actual anger. Beau also tends to try to keep an objective standpoint but he gets angry frequently enough (and rightfully so) that his reactions to the seditionists was to be expected.

I do have anger issues. And edgelords who think jokes about wishing annihilation on people are funny then feel the need to attack my sense of humor (which is so very well documented on this site) really do trigger it. I accept your apology and offer you a tutorial on some actual humor.
As someone who also has anger issues, you should definitely look into anger management methods. It'll help a lot. I lucked out (if you can call getting in trouble for getting bullied because of shitty no-tolerance policies lucky) and got transferred into a private school focused on anger management when I was in the fourth or fifth grade and it helped a shit load. Though not all methods work for all people either so you should try to find what works for you in particular.

On December 21st here in Salem, The Proud Boys & other fascist groups broke into the Oregon State Capitol. Now it looks like that was just a trial run for what they were really planning. A 30 minute report by Backyard Politix.
These idiots have no sense of irony or self-awareness. They complain about BLM and Antifa protests which at worst resulted in the Portland courthouse getting graffitied and yet when it comes down to it, they do far worse. Trump supporters went on for four years about how Clinton lost and the left needs to get over it. Their favorite fascist lost and they try to mount an insurrection over it. I have exactly zero respect left for anyone who calls themselves a Republican at this point.
