1. Call it, "Subversion from Above." A crime for which there are rarely or never any consequences.
The system doesn't police itself - a strong indicator that it will not survive much longer.

2. Somewhere between politics as usual and we will survive
I don't think we are doomed, and I think the country is always under threat.

5. So have we come full circle?
This country was founded on people from "across the seas" who came here for religious freedom. Freedom to choose and worship as they pleased. Now we have a small vocal core of people who want to take that freedom away from us. They rant and they rave that this administration wants to take our freedoms, but just think about it.

They want to do away with the 14th amendment which guarantees the right of citizenship to any child born on our soil.

They want to take away the right for the people of this country to elect the people who will represent us in the senate..the 17th amendment.

They want to discriminate against people of color who they have not even proved to not be citizens, deported from our country with out evidence.

They want to use force to remove people they don't want in office. People who were legally elected. They scream about freedoms being taken away, just tell me this, who is the party that wants to take our freedoms.

6. Yes. We are being driven to the brink of desctruction by RW terrorists.
They listen to RUSH and BECK and then FOX NEWS and then their bigotry infects them and those around them.
