We guess it became cool to compare things to 9/11 after the January 6 storming of the Capitol Building. Vice President Kamala Harris, commemorating the first anniversary of the Capitol riots, compared them to both the bombing of Pearl Harbor and the 9/11 terrorist attacks. “Certain dates echo throughout history,” she said, and we’ll all remember where we were and what we were doing when we saw video of the Capitol riots on TV. (Jen Psaki later had to explain how that comparison was apt.) Not surprisingly, MSNBC’s Joy Reid also compared January 6 to September 11.

We’ve moved on, temporarily, to the possible overturning of Roe v. Wade, and Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank warns us that could be “a 9/11 attack on America’s social fabric.”

They’ll still get to kill babies, though maybe not up to the moment of childbirth without restriction nationally as 50 Democrat senators just voted for.
