"Democracy may have survived the midterms, but let’s not doubt that its future remains fragile, especially as malignant forces such as Trump and all those who still support and emulate him remain dedicated to getting and keeping power, rule of law be damned." https://america.substack.com/p/when-the-danger-is-plain-to-see
When the Danger is Plain to See

Donald Trump's seditious attack on democracy for the "termination" of the Constitution should not be treated lightly

America, America
@StevenBeschloss this keeps me up at night.

@TrisResists @StevenBeschloss

Same. We are in the eye of the storm. The worst is yet to come, imho.

@StevenBeschloss

It's heartening to see more and more average people getting sick of the hysterics on the far right. It's slow and quiet, but it's happening.

@StevenBeschloss
Just yesterday some idiot shot at a father and son in front of a kosher grocery store in Staten Island. We are in serious, serious trouble, and those of us with rationale sense must call this out and ensure the calls to fascism et al., will not continue to escalate. #Enoughalready

@StevenBeschloss

The midterm results were a reprieve, not a pardon.

@jobsboils @StevenBeschloss The midterms were merely a detente in Merrick Garland's legacy, which is now in the fucking sewer.
@StevenBeschloss Thank you being here - you keep me properly informed and grounded in fact. An opinion about him/them: I thought apostasy was limited to religion. It’s not apparently. I could say so much more but won’t for propriety’ sake.
@StevenBeschloss And still no action from the DOJ, despite Trump's recent remarks about our Constitution. As Garland fiddles America burns.
@StevenBeschloss Trump isn’t the issue. MAGA was here before Trump, it will be here after he is gone.
The massive right wing media machine is getting larger not smaller. The power of American oligarchs is getting greater not less. We are one demagogue away from losing our democracy, if one steps up that is just slightly smarter than Trump our Democracy is gone.

To the fascists, terrorism and sedition are what they do for fun. That's why they'll always be back for more until max punishments are meted out. Treating them like errant children only invites more.
