I'm repeating this. The whole fascist, corrupt, MAGA enterprise would grind to a halt if literally half a dozen Republicans in the House and Senate would find a backbone.
@petergleick either they really want it all, and feel safe with their rôle, or they are subject to sufficiently dire and potent threats.
Who are the threateners? -

@petergleick so is the search for the six least corrupt, fearful, malevolent, republicans in office under way?
Dennis Skinner MP, the Beast of Bolsover, had a useful exchange in the Commons. -

@petergleick Which'd only get rid of the current fascists, it wouldn't take the fascists out of power altogether. You're looking for a much more fundamental stripping down here, this is the black mould in the framework.

GOP billionaires own & operate the entire Republican political apparatus.
The billionaires have achieved their kleptocracy & are no longer in the business of democracy & governance.
They are in the business of manipulating the subjects of a #MadKing
They are not in the business of serving voters, citizens, or American interests.
Billionaires deluding themselves of permanent rule.

That says way more about the elected "Christians" in the House and Senate, than anything else. A Christian Nation, indeed.

@petergleick I can only think this means they agree with the underlying white supremacy project.
Maybe we should put some resources into pointing this out?

@petergleick and if people withdrew their data so MAGA's surveillance state project wouldn't work.
Get yourself away from big tech's surveillance here:

It's partly because the hard right realised some time ago that if democracy continued, they'd be losing elections forever, so when an opportunity to sideline democracy comes up, they seize it

Unfortunately I live in an area where the gop has saturated the system.
The Steube, could give a crap what my opinion as he is safe , same with Rick Scott. Ashley Moody thinks she is safe and I'm hoping she is wrong. I'm donating to both the early entrants on the Democrat side for now.
Those of you who live in areas that could swing either way have a chance. If enough of you call that gop critter and he or she does the math and realizes that trump getting mad at them are the least of their worries. I called Ashley Moody's office , probably was a waste of time but I can hope.
For me for now best I can do is donate money to try to get some of them knocked off their perches

@petergleick The men are hopeless, but if some of the Dem women could sit down with their Rep sisters and talk about shit, …
Men been running the show since forever, and it ain’t working, we're killing the planet.You're missing the fact that a lot of Republican women are self-hating weirdos that'll throw their own to the chipper out of jealousy or just to make themselves feel better.
Not to mention Democrats's accomplicity with MAGA. Y'know. All their "meet in the middle" BS they do with the literal neo-nazis that Republicans are.

@petergleick could you provide a list with 6-7 names, which ones would be most likely to turn around?
I don't know much about US-Senators and House Representives. But I'd like to write letters to appeal to reason and humanity to those, who might just need a nudge from abroad and within. We all could try to talk reason. It might work, who knows?!@energisch_ @petergleick Also target Supreme Court judges like this. Some of them want to turn toward reason….?
