We have a little reprieve here now with Biden/Harris and Dem control of the House, but as well intentioned as our side may be, I really don't believe we are a match for how brutal and ruthlessly power hungry the republicans can be. They will stop at nothing and the rule of law is meaningless to them.

If we don't match them in their relentless quest for victory at all cost, we might as well throw in the towel. We need to change or die. I honestly don't know to what extent that is possible. Taking the high road, as noble as it may be, is not working for us.
