Collectively, we have let Trump and too much of the GOP get away with destroying our democracy and country for too long. It is time for us together to marshall the will and resources to weather and minimize any coming blowback to reeling Trump and the rest of them in!

""Real and actual violence is only becoming increasingly more likely"

Donald Trump is a type of fascist political preacher and MAGA is his congregation. His sermons are of violence and destruction.

On Sunday, Trump made an explicit threat and promise on his Truth Social disinformation platform to treat President Joe Biden and his other "enemies" like they were in a "banana republic". Trump even went so far as to call Biden and the Democrats "Communists". In essence, Trump is threatening to kill President Biden and the Democratic Party's leaders (and supporters) when and if he takes back the White House in 2025.

Last Tuesday, Trump told Glenn Beck that he would put President Biden, Special Counsel Jack Smith, Attorney General Merrick Garland, Hillary Clinton, and his other "enemies" in prison.

"You have no choice," Trump asserted, "because they're doing it to us."

As seen on Jan. 6, a recent assassination attempt on President Barack Obama by one of Trump's MAGA zealots, threats by Trump's followers against prosecutors and jurors and other law enforcement who are connected to his upcoming criminal trials, mass shootings and other violence by right-wing hate mongers and other extremists, Trump's followers have and will continue to obey his incitements and commands to violence.

In a democracy, it is the responsibility of the Fourth Estate to speak truth to the powerful by informing the public so that they can make good decisions about their leaders and society. The Fourth Estate in America, what we can broadly describe as "the news media," has failed in many ways to follow through on those responsibilities during the Age of Trump and the ongoing democracy crisis."
