Why is Josh Hawley still in the Senate two years after provoking a deadly insurrection against the U.S. government? And why hasn't Trump been prosecuted yet?

Democrats helped create/enable this disaster so I have no reason to think they're going to get us out of it, unless we somehow force them to. They're still worried about civility and outdated talking points.

Of course. They want us to die much slower than the right does. But in answer to Secretary Reich's question, they are a big part of the reason why there have been no meaningful consequences for the ongoing attacks on democracy and human rights in the US.

They lack the vision and the guts to fight for this country. We have to make it untenable for them to stay in power without doing something to protect the future of our planet and our communities.

exactly right. and if you polled the dems today in US or Labor in AUS, most would vote to eliminate all COVID controls and benefits.
