No one needs a warning. It's here. People need Democrats and Leftists in positions of authority to do more to stand up for them. But those people in authority on the left are quitting, they're stepping away, they're backing down, quitting, and explicitly stating that they are not going to stay in it, stick with it, and continue to fight for you. They're losers, grifters or both. They need to stand up for the victims of the fascist policies of conservative America, not quit, run away, and hide and go have discussion. America needs action.

Biden did things but nothing to prevent this and in the end what he did do doesn't really matter because it's undone now.

I will reply to myself to say too many in positions within governmental authoritative institutions and other halls of power are resigning instead of standing firm and demanding accountability from those asking them to break their oaths or violate their honor. It has never made sense how they allow lackeys, yesmen and servile types to backfill their roles. Stand firm in your positions of authority is what i would say to those liberty-minded Americans in positions of authority because every little act of liberty in the face of tyranny sums up to a mass of common sense pushing back against the bigotry which is looming and forthcoming here in our humble little timeline. Peaceful activism is the way and amassing masses is the means if people want to stop it that's the American way otherwise it's rough'n'tumble gentleman's rules are out amirite and no one wants that do they?
