I followed this in real time as it occurred. Bush and Cheny lied. Not surprised. They are Republicans who are known liars. I never thought that worse would come especially after we had Obama. But trump and Maga are much worse. History keeps repeating itself.

I just binged on rachel maddow's "Deja News" yesterday. I am a real History buff and learned quite a few things. I am 75. So much has happened in my lifetime and been covered up .

I hope democracy survives. My Howard Zinn like US History teacher predicted it will not. And that was in 1964.
