As we have all learned from Joe Biden's presidency, the phoniest/baloney-est claim from liberals is that they have a deep desire for national unity. There is no unity in compromise, only in surrender to the Left.
At the end of Sunday's Reliable Sources, fill-in host John Avlon interviewed the PBS gasbag Ken Burns, asking him about national unity, and he's as phony as Biden. This is CNN, so Avlon demands unity in exaggerating the January 6 riot: (Video) AVLON: You've made the point in terms of the quest for unity, that at the end of the day, Americans usually can rally together when something catastrophic has occurred.

1/6 was a staged panty raid.

When you’re not bound by facts or the truth, you can say anything you want.

Burns is smarter than that. But CNN managed, somehow, to set him up with questions to elicit answers that could be twisted into whatever pretzel-logic shape they needed.
He's not that dumb. But they are that dishonest. And the combinations produced some putrid propaganda.

Ah..... Burns supports the collective.
But he manages to avoid being an Arnold Swartzenegger and saying "Eff your freedom."

1/6 was more like Andrew Jackson's inauguration.

"AVLON: You've made the point in terms of the quest for unity, that at the end of the day, Americans usually can rally together when something catastrophic has occurred. Sometimes that's what's required to focus it on our underlying humanity. And yet,....", Here we are comparing Americans Rallying Together on Jan 6th attempting to avert the Catastrophe that IS Joe Biden becoming President, (or at least to their Govt. answer some serious questions about anomalies in the manner and methods that led to his "apprent" ascendancy to office) Comparing it to enemy attacks, the Great Depression, total collapse of Govt...Insurrections and Coups,.though it lasted only 4 hrs..
Meanwhile across the Globe from Afghanistan, to Guinea, to Yemen, to Burkini Faso, to Syria, Libya, Somalia, Democrat Rep. of the Congo...REAL insurections, revolutions Coups have and ARE actually taking place, film is available as to what a REAL one looks like, it is not a 4 hour "Rally".
Many of them, particularly in Guinea were triggered by corrupted Elections that "The People" do NOT believe were Legitimate. Afghanistan was the same, Ghani lost the primary by 20%, seemed to lose the Election...BUT The UN and US sent John Kerry to oversee a recount that took place behind closed doors over 3 months, actual Numbers and count methods were never released, but HE says Gahni won with 30% more votes than the original count. It may well be the LAST election Talibanistan ever holds.

I agree that Burns knows better and is putting forth a massive exaggeration. He is also cynically counting on his audience's appalling ignorance of history, without which these claims would collapse in a nanosecond.

Dems can burn loot and kill and never even spend a minute in jail BUT anytime a conservative dares to fight back they wind up in jail for over 6 months without seeing a judge and when they do they are charged with crimes as serious as "parading" or "tresspass". Equal justice for all"? Not anymore.

They repeat the lie with gusto, hoping beyond hope that it will stick, the history books will regard it as the worst thing since the Civil War, and that they can console themselves that they have done one more thing to slay the Orange Man Bad.

Deliberately comparing 1/6 to the Civil War with malintent when you know it’s not true is indistinguishable from treason.

The problem that has long been evolving and is rapidly accelerating is: the left has, since FDR, slowly become a party completely synonymous with government. There is no Democrat party any longer. It is the Government party: comprised of people who work for the government, are contractors or other large entities that receive huge benefit or subsidies from the government (military complex and tech), and all the people who receive government benefits (social security, welfare, whatever...) And then there are the rest of us who pay for it. There can be no common ground when those are the parameters. And THAT is indeed serious. Burns doesn't get it; he doesn't have a clue.

No doubt we will soon be treated to a Ken Burns “documentary” about all those evil white supremacists gunning for the poor, overworked Congress members on January 6th.

Of course, it helps to remember that the source is prone to hyperbole. I tolerate Newsbusters, but take it with a grain of salt. Nay, more like a salt lick.
Still, CNN (the TDS fake news leader) is orders of magnitude worse, and Ken Burns played useful idiot to some extent in this.

I'm glad the truth about how destructive the insurrection on January 6 is finally coming out and getting some historical perspective from the unquestionably renown Ken Burns. Please don't bother me with it any more because it interferes with my enjoyment of looking at the Hunter Biden blow-art masterpiece I just paid $500,000 for.

In their minds (CNN, PBS) 1/6 WAS bigger than the Civil War and World War II. The number of Trump supporters that showed up in DC scared the crap out of them.
