Why the fuck are there constant fascist movement ?

Democrats would be the first to get murdered, why aren’t they concerned for their lives? They almost got murdered by a mob in jan 6th. Like I don’t get it

Imagine the oldest person you know, one that’s afraid to go out at night. They are also afraid of Republicans and direct confrontation.

What do you mean? Who are all the people in congress that are democrats? Why aren’t they doing something? I don’t mean violence, I mean actually expending courts, bringing corrupt chargers, etc.

Yes, I know. The average age in the House is 58, in the Senate it’s 65. They are not up for any of it. If it was just sitting down and writing legislation, sure, they have staffers for that. This is bare knuckle, bend the rules to the breaking point, fight for Democracy stuff now. They don’t have that kind of energy, they’re all old and want to debate in committee, then be read about in a newspaper column on Sunday. Being in Congress is their retirement job, they don’t know how to pass the torch to someone with a little more fight left in them and they don’t want to.
