We can all lament what the GOP has become, and we can fear what it may yet become. That's the easiest thing in the world. The hard part, as always, is thinking about the day after. What does our country look like after the Republican Party totally crumbles or worse, goes full-on fascist?
Don't like what you see? What'll be our next step?
The point here is that we're far better off trying to change things now, than later.
We need to challenge the few remaining decent moderate Republicans to step up and confront MAGA in the one place where they actually exercise real power: the House of Representatives. I'm talking about Don Bacon (R-NE), Brian Fitzpatrick (R-PA), Mike Gallagher (R-WI), Dave Joyce (R-OH) and a few others.
A bipartisan non-MAGA majority passed the debt limit bill (Fiscal Responsibility Act) and will eventually also pass appropriation bills to fund the government. But to solve the real problem, they need to pass a motion to "vacate the chair", remove Kevin McCarthy as Speaker and replace him with one of their own.
At Feathers of Hope, a network of ordinary citizens has been advocating this since January. Everyone is invited to pitch in and help bring it about by contacting select Representatives and every media outlet we can think of.

FoxNews needs to be held to account for its role in brainwashing an entire generation of GOP voters.
As long as millions of viewers obtain the majority of their "news" from this media mogul....we are shouting at the sky.
The truth has to matter or we're goners...
The GOP is exactly what it wants to be.
