You may have noticed that Democrats on Capitol Hill are trying their best to keep the Jan. 6 investigation in the news. Making the spring and then the summer and then the fall about former President Donald Trump would be a huge win for them, given the calamitous state of Democratic midterm election prospects these days. But even though the Jan. 6 committee will get a lot of coverage when it finally unveils its report, the fact is, the Democratic Party cannot divert voters’ attention from losing issues such as inflation, crime, and the border crisis.

My question is, why do they not seem to care. They are plowing ahead and doubling down on all of their policies.
What do they know that we don’t know.
My conclusion is this current (D) debacle is a Leftist feature, not a bug.
Rahm famously stated (evidently it was first said by Churchill) “never letter a crisis go to waste”.
The Leftist (D) is so emboldened that they will openly create the crisis which the (D) Left will proclaim only they can resolve, and the (D) Leftist solutions will inevitably make more and more US citizens dependent upon the State for their sustenance.
