We are in the midst of the worst Constitutional crisis in the history of our republic. Yet. In a handful of days, the pepetrtrator of that crisis gets to take the reins of the country and drive the agenda that Russia desires. Russian operatives are going to be sitting at the highest levels of our government. The person who benefited most wil be the person getting (and disseminating) the most sensitive of all information from both sides. And. There is nothing we can do.

My prediction is that the story will stop getting coverage a week or so after the election.
Sad but probably true.

(35,077 posts)The government is increasingly flawed and unrepresentative. It is a system collapsing in on itself.
I suggest reading the works of Gene Sharp as a start.
We really can not rely on elected officials anymore. We really can not rely on voting alone anymore.
We need to target the junta's authority, human resources, skills and knowledge, intangible factors, material resources, and sanctions. This is their power.
