Mangino: The cowards of Capitol Hill Seditious Six
Matthew T. Mangino
Harvard Law School Professor Laurence Tribe referred, in a recent tweet, to a group of GOP senators who intended to object to the certification of the election of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris as the Treacherous Eleven.
After the Capitol was overrun by insurrectionists, fomented by the president of the United States, only six senators continued their cowardly kowtowing to the lead insurrectionist Donald Trump. The Seditious Six, led by Sens. Ted Cruz of Texas and Josh Hawley of Missouri, also included Roger Marshall (Kansas), John Kennedy (Louisiana), Cindy Hyde-Smith (Missouri) and Tommy Tuberville (Alabama).

Harvard Law School Professor Laurence Tribe referred, in a recent tweet, to a group of GOP senators who intended to object to the certification of the election of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris as the “Treacherous Eleven.”
After the capitol was overrun by insurrectionists, fomented by the President of the United States, only six senators continued their cowardly kowtowing to the lead insurrectionist - Donald Trump. The “Seditious Six,” led by Senators Ted Cruz of Texas and Josh Howley of Missouri also included Roger Marshall (KS), John Kennedy (LA), Cindy Hyde-Smith (MS) and Tommy Tuberville (AL).
Two systems are before the world; the one looks to increasing the proportion of persons and of capital engaged in trade and transportation, and therefore to diminishing the proportion engaged in producing commodities with which to trade, with necessarily diminished return to the labor of all; while the other looks to increasing the proportion engaged in the work of production, and diminishing that engaged in trade and transportation,
with increased return to all, giving to the laborer good wages, and to the owner of capital good profits. One looks to pauperism, ignorance, depopulation, and barbarism; the other in increasing wealth, comfort, intelligence, combination of action, and civilization.

Since leaving my hometown of Brainard, each time I move I land in a bigger city. Along the progression from Brainard to Lincoln to Detroit to New York City, Ive come to see things differently.
Its natural that our environment will influence our opinions, including our political views. But these days, people living in the country and those living in cities have developed such differing viewpoints that at times it feels like theyre operating in separate worlds.
This issue is at the heart of my new book Rural Rebellion: How Nebraska Became a Republican Stronghold, where I write about the dissonance of moving from one of the most rural and conservative regions of the country to its most liberal and urban centers as they grow further apart at a critical moment in history.
