Why are we still playing by "rules?"

Why aren't we twisting both of Joe Manchin's arms until they break?

Why are we looking at elections that are virtually certain to be stolen in 2022 an 2024?

In the 20th century, when fascism was threatening to take over the world, we threw out the "rule book" and fought like our lives depended on it. Because our lives did depend upon it.

Now, fascism is threatening to take over here at home. And we're treating it like just one more political battle. How many Democrats know, and I mean know for sure, that our lives do depend on the outcome of this "battle." After all, it's time to recognize that the Civil War never ended.
