America must take steps now to avoid a slide into authoritarianism

What's hilarious is that even when they controlled both chambers and the executive branch, they acted as if they were under siege from left wing extremists.

The media is complicit in this and I don't just mean Fox News. Some dope on Anderson Cooper last night was theorizing that the reason Biden couldn't get his agenda passed was because he'd become a "captive of the left." I and others joked on here that they were going to blame Progressives for their inability to get anything done and we were right. Progressives have done everything they can to help pass Biden's agenda, and the sabotage has come from moderate-conservative Democrats.

Sinema and Manchin have sunk this Presidency, but a party whose entire agenda can be sabotaged isn't united in its goals. So, let's cut the shit with blaming progressives for everything. It's the moderates who won't fall in line.
