In Texas, the Republicans won't rest until enough Democratic voters are disqualified from voting, or their votes nullified, to ensure absolute control for Republicans for decades to come.
This is happening nationwide where Republicans control things. It's a national issue.
Yet Big Journalism, apart from sporadic coverage that consistently misses the forest for the trees, continues to miss the emergency represented by that this accelerating attack on democracy.
NPR bears great responsibility for pushing the US toward autocracy.
NPR has been unable to accurately convey, without bothsidesism, the dangers we face.
The effect is that NPR listeners are falsely reassured—they don't learn about how dangerous the moment is, how extreme conservatives have become. Because NPR doesn't state that clearly.
