As a reminder for everyone saying, "The US had never before scored four goals in a World Cup" that they mean the men's team had never before scored that many. The women's team has absolutely scored more than four goals in a world cup, including in the final. And they also wins things.

The public reaction to Jan. 6 began as something close to collective horror. Five years later, Trump’s historical revisionism has destroyed any shared national understanding of what happened that day, today’s @bostonglobe.com Starting Point explains www.bostonglobe.com/2026/01/06/n...

Trump’s campaign to rewrite the history of the Jan. 6 attack has largely succeeded. Here’s why. - The Boston Globe
Five years after a pro-Trump mob stormed the Capitol to try to overturn Trump’s 2020 loss, Americans lack a shared understanding of what happened that day.

Q: Could January 6th have happened if Donald Trump had not called to assemble the mob? Legal expert: It could not. He called the crowd knowing that they responded to his dog whistles, and when he knew there was violence, when he knew that his own vice president was in danger, he let things continue
