Historian Heather Cox Richardson Says Trump Could be Convicted ...

What could be more important than that right now? . . and what about the history behind today's bizarre bi-polar politicized politics.
“We’re in an inflection moment of American politics, and one of the things that happens in that moment is that a lot of people get involved in politics again,”
> Dr. Richardson confounds many of the media’s assumptions about this moment. She built a huge and devoted following on Facebook, which is widely and often accurately viewed in media circles as a home of misinformation, and where most journalists don’t see their personal pages as meaningful channels for their work.

She is the breakout star of the newsletter platform Substack, doing the opposite of most media as she calmly situates the news of the day in the long sweep of American history.

. . .She’s not the only one to have realized that a lot of people feel left out of the media conversation. Many of the most interesting efforts in journalism in 2021, some of them nonprofit organizations inspired by last summer’s protests over racism, will be trying to reach people who are not part of that in-group chat.

Shocking. Trump's lawyers' brief (p. 2) reads as if it came straight from Reconstruction. It says Ds are using Americans' horror and confusion over January 6 to gain political advantage. In 1866, white supremacists said the same about those trying to protect Black lives.
