freedom for whom and to do what?
"The parliamentary battle of the NSDAP had the single purpose of destroying the parliamentary system from within through its own methods. It was necessary above all to make formal use of the possibilities of the party-state system but to refuse real cooperation and thereby to render the parliamentary system, which is by nature dependent upon the responsible cooperation of the opposition, incapable of concerted action..."-ernst huber
yes, no one is ever safe when congress is in session, however the doctrinaire conspiriacy theorists in the house of representative bear an eerie resemblance to activites elsewhere in the early 1930s...disruptive at best and both profoundly vindictive and convinced of their almost papal infalibility they clearly think they have the answers we all need to align ourselves with and seem willing to utilize violence as a method of political debate...add in their unstinting support for a criminal presidential wannabe ( again ) and their authoritarian sub-text becomes unmistakeably highlighted...politics here has always been a vile business based mostly on lies and evasion coupled with periodic outbursts of violence...usually aimed at members of the working class attempting to organize to provide themselves with some protection against unrestrained capital...fascism is what capital turns to when it feels threatened from below and the worderfully orwellian euphemism this cacus's name presents should be a clue as to where their sympathies lie...nothing much new in this...the question is how to address it...they and their cadres in local government are doing their best to undermine the electoalr process by disenfranchizing sectors of the voting public that could elect representative inimical to their ends...gerrymandering ( a process named after elbridge gerry...one of those "founding fathers" conservatives are so in awe of )....one cogent step would be to refuse to remain quiet in the face of crypto-fascist machinations.
