I posted this in the American Coup thread last night but it’s totally relevant to the live action of the hour.

> The Economist magazine has published a very heartfelt and articulate opinion piece by Arnold Schwarzenegger on why the Republicans must stop the charade tomorrow or live on only in infamy. The article is paywalled, but AIUI you can get a few free articles by giving an email address. All true Americans should read and heed this. That the whole country wasn’t chanting a similar line in unison the last 5 years is a pitiful shame.

That post contains the crucial boxed link to the article. The preview just above in this thread removes that link. Here it is again to save y’all a click:
