In The End Protest Will Not Be Enough - The GOP Is Cutting Off All Avenues Of Grievance

The GOP is actively planning to cut off all means of protest and grievance by rigging elections, suppressing free speech and shutting down public gatherings. The police and military are their tools to such an end.

They are just going to ignore dissenters and do what they will. In their view no one can touch them politically because of gerrymandering, intimidation, deceit and other political tricks. The new tool is using recall funded by rich billionaires against any legislator who passes or votes for a law they appose.

My state Senator just told us that the GOP in my state refuses to appoint a senator to an educations committee because they do not like present law and will work against the committee even meeting. We are dealing with a bunch hateful nasty people.
