Question of the Month
or maybe the year: What do we do when the democratic process is entirely subverted?
What do we plan to do? The last six years has demonstrated the weaknesses in our institutions--from the first and possibly second stolen election to the signing statements to the outright refusal to abide with treaties the U.S. is a signatory to, to the suspension of civil rights, to the conspiracy to torture people, to the flagrant violation of the law.
Does anyone wonder if there will be a peaceful handover? Is anyone doubting whether these people will actually leave office in the usual way? I'm really starting to wonder about this!
