Text Mess!
The 1/6 Commission hit a mother load this week in the thousand page document dump by former Trump Chief of Staff Mark Meadows. Inside this treasure trove were damning texts by Fox hosts, Republican Members of Congress and Trump's own son--begging for help on 1/6. The question remains though--with all this evidence within our grasps will those complicit in the attempt to overthrow our government continue to evade accountability or has their time finally come?
