We Cannot Move Ahead as long as well over 100 politicians openly state that the election was stolen.

We simply cannot. It is a sprinkling of cancer cells throughout the country that will continue to metastasize. It means that President Biden and Vice President Harris and all in the new administration will be proceeding with the hands tied behind their backs.

That, combined with the differential treatment of protestors - coddling of white right wing terrorists vs the diverse groups peacefully working for positive change - the former getting the open door, the latter getting arrested, beaten up and gassed - are two prongs of continuing, blatant racism that will not allow our country to advance, never mind heal.

Who - and how - does the pressure get applied to the malevolent among the republicans to stop this bullshit? And how does it happen when tons of money get poured into right wing hate media to fuel this garbage?

I have to say, my DU friends, this is what is making me sick - and doesn't get nearly enough attention. Yes, we have the senate, house and presidency - but the country has been infected by trump and the cancer that spreads out from him has no easy antidote.

5. Every interview with a republican states

yes the election was stolen and they will get it fixed. I try to turn them off but they are everywhere, saying the same thing. They have talking points programmed into their speech.

They need to be stopped.

6. Sedition

They opposed the peaceful transition of power as little attention whores.

The Sedition Caucus must be arrested, charged, and tried.

Merrick Garland.

Karma is sweet.
