The 2022 and 2024 elections aren't battles. They're the whole war.

If we lose those two elections, or if they're stolen due to the insane voting laws being passed in red states, then America is over.

In this horrible era, the Republican Party is as much a threat to our well being as Covid and climate change. So we, or more accurately our elected representatives, are fighting a three front war against forces that can destroy us.

The fights against climate change and Covid are progressing slowly. But regarding the Republican threat of fascism, it seems we're badly behind and playing catch up. They have declared all out political war on us and we're not treating it as the deadly threat that it is.

Joe Biden and the entire Democratic establishment must become laser focused on this. No law, bill, or cause favored by Dems will matter if or when the Fascist Party seize full power. It will be the end of American democracy.

un-surprised that our MSM not only aren't alarmed but seem to be encouraging and enabling them.

…over the past 20 years, has put them on a path to now being a permanent minority in Congress. So I guess if it is between that or a dictatorship, they’ll take the latter.

6. They re-defined conservative to being fiscal responsible, a monstrous lie as their administrations's

record shows, relabeled because conservatism necessitates an undemocratic hierarchical system. The thing U.S. conservatives refuse to accept, is equality before the law for all and any kind or political rights or protection for the laboring and working classes.
