Republicans have shown us that they are America's domestic enemies

[Cyrano]

They have backed the orange would-be Mussolini through either their actions and/or their silence. They don't speak out about Trump's attempted coup d'etat of Jan. 6th. They have shown us time and again that they don't give a rat's ass about democracy in general and our Constitution specifically.

Every member of the federal government, elected or otherwise, takes the oath to "... protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic ..." So it's up to every single one of them, and all of us, to stop the GOP insanity from going any farther.

Republicans cannot be any clearer in their aim. If they gain the House, the Senate, and the presidency, they will totally ignore the Constitution and do whatever they want to do. (And once they control it all, don't expect another election. Ever.)

How much clearer can they be that they are America's domestic enemies. They wave Trump and Confederate flags alongside the American flag. They claim to be the REAL patriots while spitting on our traditions. The white, "Christian" America they have in mind is, in reality, a nightmare, and a deadly country to all "Others."

They are at war with us and our only response is GOTV. Yeah, we've gotta' vote, but it ain't enough. And please don't ask me what we should be doing beyond voting. We are dealing with people who would be happy to see most of us dead. So you tell me what we should be doing against these domestic enemies.

1. But it remains true

that the most important thing we can do is vote and donate/volunteer to organizations and candidates dedicated to preserving democracy. Other than violence, which isn’t justified at this time, that’s the best we can do.

2. I'm not advocating violence

However, moving rapidly to try and jail Trump's top level cronies might send a message. If any of us had done what they had done during Trump's reign, and especially on Jan. 6th, we'd already be sitting in jail cells.

Also, impeachment hearings should be held for Trump appointed judges such as this judge (can't recall her name) who has jeopardized national security by granting Trump a "special master" for the classified documents he stole.

3. don't tolerate conservatism?

I don't go looking for political fights, but when someone flashes their conservative feathers at me, I do my very best to pluck them out.
Yes, this means old friends, family members, too. If they love you, eventually they'll forgive you, or not. If they don't, maybe they were already lost.
Make it clear that the Republican party died on January 6th, and what took its place is 100% organized crime. Don't tolerate these people and don't tolerate those who tolerate them. Because every opinion in America is OK, except for one: voting to end America. Sorry, that's not "free speech". It's enemy speech.

4. Yet they continue to win elections

5. Yep. Lots of crazy people in this country are voting for them
