mobilised and fact-checking what's really going on when these incidents
occur. I don't suppose the rather embarrassing presence of the flag
would have been revealed otherwise.

conference - they need to take the time to get their story straight. Can
you imagine how differently this would have been handled if the assailant
had been an "extreme right" MAGA guy?
