We’ve gone past the point of fascism “looming,” and the numbers of people who realize this are legion. Mad King George and his cabal of cohorts are rolling over our federal government like army tanks, leaving chaos, shredded freedoms and fear in their wake. Their aim - barely disguised, often shrugged off with a “Yeah, so what of it?” - is to nullify the U.S. Constitution and establish a “post-Constitutional era.”
Without the Constitution, we are no longer even the semblance of a free society.
There are so many things that could have and should have been done to prevent this. The corruption of our politics, our own distractedness, the arrogance of our intellectual elite, spinelessness of our media, and about fifteen other reasons all coalesced to create the calamity that is this political moment. But this isn’t the time to dissect the past. It’s time to ask ourselves, “What do we do now?”…
That’s why the protests on April 19th are so important. Millions of people showed up on April 5th in over 1,500 protests all over the country. On April 19th there need to be many millions more. If you were there at the first one, go again. And this time, bring someone who didn’t go before. For the sake of your country, take this very seriously. We have diminishing options for resistance at this point, and it’s important we pour everything into the ones we’ve got.
