This was on The Daily Show's Twitter feed. It's sad that I don't know if this was satire by them, or an actual screenshot from Fox News.

Hahaha. Oh man. Its gonna be wild. You are right it may as well not be satire. I'm sure they will try it. I suppose since we won't get any Trump tweets now this madness will have to do

While it would be a small step, it's still good that this might wind up happening...

Donald Trump May Be Gone, But Democrats Are Still Trying To Get His Tax Returns

Controlling the Senate could give Democrats new power to obtain Trump’s tax information — if they want to. At this point, I don't half care anymore.

Is Fucker worried that an inordinate amount of attention will wind up being focused on him?

I still want to see them. Trump was a plague, and everything about him needs to be exposed. The longer the myth of the 'business genius' survives, the longer people will listen to this idiot. Not all can be persuaded, but enough can. And I hate the idea that someone can just run out the clock like that

So barring that this may very well be some sort of "Spy Vs. Spy..." situation, does this mean that Democrats are the fascists that I've got to worry about now?

Portland police arrest 8 after rioters damage Democratic Party office, ICE facility following Biden's inauguration

A crowd of about 150 people gathered at Revolution Hall, a music venue in southeast Portland, and marched to the headquarters of the Democratic Party of Oregon on Wednesday afternoon. Some individuals vandalized the building with graffiti and smashed windows, while others moved dumpsters into the middle of the street and lit the contents on fire, police said.

It's sounds very confusing. Maybe more details might clear things up.

Could be that things are headed in the "Who Is The Most Straight Edge?..." direction.

There is an element on the left that never accepted Biden. The Bernie or bust, Krystal Ball crowd. I saw more than one post on social media saying Biden was the exact same as Trump. I gather these are some of the people in the Portland riot.

Of course he is. In the past he's down played the idea that white supremist extremist are a threat. And Fox had to fire one his writers because the guy was caught posting racist messages on social media. Tucker's scared that the FBI is going to look harder at him and his show and he won't be able to dismiss them as "SJWs" or "cancel culture".
