The peaceful transition of power is what has set America apart. Beginning with Washington at the end of his eight years.
What is about to happen today is a betrayal of democracy (little d).
The Republican Party is full of traitors to this country.
The die is cast for the Republican Party. It will be destroyed on January 6th in much the same way the Whig party was destroyed by the passage of the Kansas-Nebraska Act in 1854. The act unraveled the Missouri compromise and allowed for the westward expansion of slavery. 1/

The 6th will commence a political civil war inside the GOP. The autocratic side will roll over the pro-democracy remnant of the GOP like the Wehrmacht did the Belgian Army in 1940. The ‘22 GOP primary season will be a blood letting. The 6th will be a loyalty test. The purge 3/

Fruit from four years of collaboration and complicity with Trumps insanity, illiberalism and incompetence are ready for harvest. It will kill the GOP because it’s Pro Democracy faction and Autocratic factions can no more exist together then could the Whig Party hold together 5/

It is wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross. This movement must be defeated. It cannot be appeased, accommodated or negotiated with. It must be recognized for what it is and we must all recognize the new age of American politics it has wrought. It has reset the debate 7/

Entirely. There are only two sides in American politics now. There is the American side and the Autocratic side. May God help us all if we falter, flag or fail in defense of American democracy. 8

We could just as easily say, “Remember Biden’s Crime Bill?”
I can’t speak for either side because I didn’t follow the Bernie controversy that closely.
But I will say this. Progressive policies are long, long overdue and Bernie represented that better than any of the other candidates. And y’all can thank him and some of the others you don’t like for moving the establishment Democrats to the left.
This Bernie/ @AOC/ Squad bashing has got to stop.
We’re winning by slim, slim margins. There were 74 million people who thought Trump was doing just fine. And Trumpism won’t vanish overnight.
Keep your eye on the rail when you’re driving the train.

Yeah, it will be interesting if the two Republican Senate candidates from GA still stand by Trump and his attempted coup. It was a losing strategy and if they follow through it marks them forever.

Yes, she did but let’s not fight.
I’ve been watching CNN and MSNBC and no one has even mentioned Bernie or @AOC.
