In this stranger than fiction world we are witnessing awesome (in the original sense of inspiring awe) incursions into Fantasy and Science Fiction. Leaving man-made climate change aside (the potentially science fiction part aside), the obvious fantasies (plural) on the part of the hearing witnesses (save one) and many congress critters on each side of illusory aisle who claim that "Russia meddled in our election". As if the US of A doesn't meddle anywhere and everywhere.

During an otherwise routine budget meeting for the U.S. Capitol Police on May 18, an extraordinary video was recorded, but it has only now started to get attention since the arrest of Imran Awan as he tried to flee the country. What’s really significant in that video isn’t just Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s threat “there will be consequences” made to the Captain of the Capitol Police.
