    In 1997, I attended the Primary Leadership Development Course (PLDC) to become a Sergeant. In one of the classes I learned there were two types of courage. Physical courage and moral courage. Physical courage putting you life at risk and moral courage is standing up for what is right. Physical courage will earn you medals and moral courage will earn you enemies.

No offense or hate for your beliefs, but the hearings were political theater. The bitter political divide only benefits the politicians, and hurts people like you and me in my opinion.

I waited with bated breath for each hearing and listened while working during the workday for each of them. I'm super concerned about the state of this country but this was such a great display of how real statesmen and stateswomen should be conducting themselves.

You don't even tell us exactly what to think, you let us listen to primary sources. Your series about Putin made me feel so refreshed on the recent history of the state of affairs with Russia (you don't hear the news reminding you the context and nuances that we're so quick to forget when analyzing the present), and I'm so thrilled to see this series published.

      He was an F-16 fighter pilot. Those things have one engine, and limited backup power for flight controls and electricity. Sitting in one is like a bathtub; there's not a lot of room to stretch out or take a piss. Adam was used to pressure and discomfort. Ejecting from one of those is similar to bailing off a motorcycle that's going 40 mph, or being thrown off a galloping horse; but with the added risk of cavitating your eyeballs and sinuses with air rushing at 300+ mph. He has demonstrable courage and integrity. I would be proud to say I crewed his jet; I'm almost certain I did not.
      Liz Cheney evokes similar feelings of respect and inspiration / admiration.
      Donald Trump is pathetic in comparison. I would readily walk past him to buy street tacos from an immigrant vendor serving out of the back of their unregistered van.

I'm pretty sure that's one of the few truths he has ever told because I doubt he as ever read a book. He has suggested the suspension of the constitution to get his way. There is almost a constant stream of BS emanating from him. He is a wannabe dictator by his own admission. His handling of the COVID pandemic was reprehensible. He promoted unproven treatments and undermined public health guidelines. Additionally, there were controversies surrounding the distribution of medical supplies and the politicization of mask-wearing and vaccination efforts which he is responsible for. He suggested injecting bleach into our body to cure COVID. WTF? The January 6th insurrection is prime example of his lack of care for our country and our democracy. He did nothing for hours while people were dying defending our capital from the MAGA heads who were sent there by Orange himself. "Go to the capital and fight like hell" This what he told his mob of MAGAs..The reason he waited so long to do anything is he wanted to see if his mob would be successful in stopping the election certification. Maybe by hanging Mike Pence?? His crazy response to the election results are the epitome of his lack of concern for our democracy. He lost 60 court cases trying to prove fraud. Some of the presiding judges were appointed by Orange himself. He spreads unproven conspiracy theories and people believe them. It must be mass hypnosis that convinces people that this narcissistic playground bully is the right man for the job of president.

    Only two republicans were willing to speak out. They were the only ones with a backbone! I was enraged on Jan 6th, and can’t believe that everyone else isn’t! I watched the live coverage in real time! Unbelievable! This s wasn’t just a walk in the park. Encourage every sane person to vote these apathetic folks out of office!

      Only 2 Republicans were stupid enough to serve on that Jan 6th committee. That committee was not formed to seek out the truth, it was a form to do a hit job on Trump. If Kinzinger and Cheney wanted to stand up for truth, they should have refused to serve on that committee until it was balanced with Republican members. Instead, Nancy Pelosi used them as useful idiots, and they smiled the whole way, not realizing how they were deceived.

    Mr. Kinzinger has served his country admirably. Putting his well-being, security and career at risk. Who would've thought that serving in US Congress would be riskier than serving in US armed forces and in Iraq's war theater? Thank you for remaining steadfast in your ideals and for your resolve in bringing the truth out of all of shenanigans that were, and are, conducted by your party. US was lucky to have you in Congress at that moment of time. We need more sons and daughters of US like you and Ms. Cheney than the scoundrels prostrating to the emperor without clothes.
