The only description now of American government that comes close to reality is gathering lawlessness that precedes complete anarchy. From T.L. Davis at tldavis.substack.com:
On what seems likely to be the eve of WWIII, a war the United States will undoubtedly lose, it’s important to know that patriots will never get a better chance to restore the republic than from the ashes of the United States of America.
To whatever extent a piece of paper can be a nation, the Constitution was a good effort and the principles it embraced and codified were outstanding, but they were only the principles that pre-existed the Constitution, they were not created by it. It was the other way around.
I will never give up on those principles and to whatever degree another constitution can be written, or strengthening and putting some draconian penalties for violations of the one that already exists, it’s worth a try, but make no mistake, whatever America is to be will be up to Americans to sort out in the next weeks and years as the old one collapses.
The government now in charge largely through violations of the Constitution, in violations of any form of popular democracy, owing its current configuration to communist principles of an autocratic ruler through dictate is not American in principle or ideology, it is Hegelian in nature and function. Resistance to the government now, is resistance to communism.
It’s not so much what those in power vote for or against, but what they will not allow to be heard at all. It is that even with the volumes of evidence of bribery and treason against the sitting president, no Democrat and few Republicans will recognize it, broadcast the enormity of it to the people and demand immediate action. Not officially, anyway. The president’s own Attorney General should and would, with a functioning constitutional republic rather than a communistic dedication to power, force the president to answer for his obvious, detailed and recorded crimes and the whole cabinet should be behind him. Barring that, the Attorney General should, at a minimum, allow the congress to select a special investigator and recuse himself.
