Thank you, Umair. This is your most eloquent, impassioned piece yet. However justifiable it may seem, despair is self-validating; if we assume that nothing can be done, nothing WILL be done. Conversely if we DO something courageous and righteous, as the Jan. 6 committee has just done in referring Trump for serious criminal charges, it shines a light in the encroaching darkness and renews hope for all good people!
