How can you read the Russian screed against Ukraine without horror? And, without realizing that fascism is exactly where we are headed in this country? We have a major political party that has weaponized lies, both big and small, to regain power. They have several media outlets that join them in spreading the lies, shaping the views of their audiences. They embrace white supremacists and armed militias. Their elected officials do not defend our nation, our laws, our institutions, or our Constitution, instead actively participating or remaining silent because their lust for power justifies all of it. When a violent insurrection becomes legitimate political discourse, when the occupant of the White House can flaunt any law, any decency, any norm, when they defend and minimize foreign interference in our elections, when they are willing to embrace any brutal dictator and pursue any means to overturn a free and legitimate election - how much further do they have to travel before it's no longer hyperbole to accuse them of fascism?

Every American should be very concerned about casting a single vote for a political party that will not change the dangerous and hate-filled course they are on unless and until they are dealt massive defeats at the ballot boxes.
