Insurrection fallout

Read this yesterday, I think the French guy was very convincing 

"You cannot tell me I don't know what they should have done. I can fly to Washington tomorrow and do that job, just as any police official in Washington can fly to Paris and do mine," the official said. The official directs public security in a central Paris police district filled with government buildings and tourist sites.

"These are not subtle principles" for managing demonstrations, "and they transfer to every situation," the official said. "This is why we train alongside the US federal law enforcement to handle these very matters, and it's obvious that large parts of any successful plan were just ignored."

 
In contrast this is what happened to the insurrectionists/co-conspirators to Lincoln's assassination  1865

Apparently Alaska made some pretty sweeping changes in their election process. Going forward the primary will be a single open primary with the top 4 vote getters getting on the final ballot regardless of party. The general election will be ranked choice.

Some think she had to stay further right than she wanted to survive primaries from a far right competitor. With this change there is some hope it will give her the freedom to be more independent as she will get on the general ballot for sure now.

Super interesting change for the state, I am interested to see how it works for them.
