12. Not talking about members of the Republican party,

Mar 2022

I am talking about the RNC, the politicians. Name me GQP politicians, other than Kinzinger and Cheney, who are not active participants in working to overthrow our democracy, not just talking about the 1/6 attack on the Capitol.

If the RNC used its funding to support the 1/6 insurrection the Republican party is complicit.

The insurrection did not end on 1/6, it continues. Are not the state Republicans who are passing discriminatory, voter suppressing laws complicit, not criminally, in ending our democracy? Republicans may not be criminally liable for passing anti-democratic, anti-Constitutional laws but the laws they are passing are designed to ensure Republican minority rule for generations, then we won't have to worry about the word "partisan" there won't be a need for it. How many Republican laws did Marc Elias get tossed, thank god Elias sees the issue. Citizens groups are doing more than DOJ. A citizen group is going after the Cyber Ninjas, has taken them to court, what did DOJ do? It wrote a stern letter that was ignored.

Why is the RNC suing the select committee?
