This is a well rounded article where the author doesn't shy away from reality, even if the people who are causing the trouble are now back-pedaling and denying their role in this unfortunate lack of respect for their government.

There is also a discussion of why many supported the last president, even though the election was completed by judges, NOT the people.

"Some people who live in this country don't want the President to speak in their kids' school. They don't accept the electoral process that put him in office, they do not respect the will of the majority, they are organizing and rabble-rousing to undermine our government and the leaders we chose to lead us as a country."
