Here is what Tom Nichols of "The Atlantic" wrote today: "The Republican Party has mutated from a political organization into an authoritarian movement."
This emergence has been obvious for years and Trump, Fox News, Lindsay Graham, and a host of others planned and attempted a coup. They should have been prosecuted for their crimes

long ago. Good grief!! Most of it was done in public. I pray that the failure of our politicians, DOJ, our "news" media, and everyday common sense Americans to prevent it is not a prelude to the loss of our democracy and freedom. Over 140 members of Congress voted to overturn an election. They belong in jail, not Congress! This was an insurrection. Remember Hitler came to power legally.
Pace Tom Nichols, the Republican party has not "mutated". It was hijacked a long time ago. As smartly and discreetly as Putin's little green men grabbed Crimea.
Those that financed the hijacking understood that stormtroopers and swastika-type armbands would get them nowhere. A respectable name, that of Grandma's Old Party, would do the trick. Perfectly.
The Big Bad Wolf ate Grandma and donned Grandma's nightdress and nightcap...
Which, being translated, means the hijackers have those political essentials, hair (well coiffed) long teeth (well whitened) and the (would-be Alpha) males wear dark suits and ties...
Appearances, appearances...

As for the idiot word "authoritarian" -- I am sorry, but that is precisely what this 5 1/2 to 6 syllable monstrosity is when taken out from academe and plonked in the political boxing ring, even Fuehrerprinzip has 4 syllables -- can no one here find a better word for mob-boss-rule?
Apartheid had "baaskaap" -- but won't Timothy Snyder's word TYRANNY do?
The label "Republican Party" provides cover for tyranny, for a movement to overthrow the American Republic and replace it with an Empire.
Good question Karen. Section 3 of the 14th Amendment has three (3) triggers not one ( 1) as misreported by some Platforms. Each trigger is an independent basis for legal action.
Not much case law on the topic but, but is time create new law.
I had to write your name three times before the “ miracle fone” could accept the spelling!!! Not only given up cable 20 years ago, starting to think through giving up this addictive hand held explosive.... who needs it!??
My god, give me my copper back Verizon so I can depend on my land -line in an emergency! So much unknown because we have NO CONTROL over which cancer is hitting our brains via cell phones! Let’s tell congress to start protecting us not infecting us!
When they took away our copper to replace it with fibre optic, they assured me the battery power would be alive for about 8 hours if the fibre optic connection went down so that the way we used to be assured of access to emergency would still work for that 8 hours. Never had to test that--so far.

They wear red ties and tell lies. Fox magnifies their noise on Fox Noise.
Yes!
Even the supreme court is rotting from wthin. The is a plague in the land, as Sophecles would say
Yes. Why are seditionists seated in Congress? That’s been my question since 2021.

This is my question as well.
Bravo, Lan . I love straight talk
So do I. It puts the ground back beneath your feet.
All true. In plain sight.
The “Freedom Caucus” is a gang of traitors.
Thank you Lan!
