So, Grassley makes the "Trending Now" feature on DU

Did you see?

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100215718766

He expected to preside over electoral college matters on January 6. Because on January 5 he indicated ". . .we don't expect him (Pence) to be here. . ."

Crickets here. Am I the only Iowa Democrat who has a LOT of questions about this??

I suspect we will be hearing about it in local blogs like bleedingheartland.com and iowastartingline.com in the next few days not to mention the capitaldispatch.com

I also emailed KCRG:

"I note the videos of our Senator Grassley today attempting to deflect his prior knowledge of the scheming and inner strategy of the attempted coup of our government.

To paraphrase him on the Senate floor--a DAY BEFORE the attempted coup--"we don’t expect him (Pence) to be here…

Do Iowans need to know? I encourage honest reporting on this very important matter."

Haven't heard a peep and don't expect to!
