Republicans have separated themselves from democracy

An echo opinion letter published in the Idaho State Journal, from Pocatello

Sometimes it takes a tourniquet to save democracy

As we watch the separation of the Republican Party from any semblance of civility in American politics. The tendency of a dictator in training, trying to avoid or destroy all constitutional boundaries that hold a tyrant in check from attaining complete power over compassion while dismantling the branches of government seeking executive control over the voting population by trickery and obstruction.

We, are a nation of human diversity, religious freedoms, free press, and free speech and need to control our Nation by voting for our elected choices. Sometimes it seems we can’t stop hate from splitting our country apart, as it was done once in our history of “uncivility” upon each other.

We have recently sunk to new lows of despair, being currently governed by the swamp of ideological refuse, chaos and those lacking any form of compassion, backed by terror tactics of a massing army of ICE agents doing the bidding of a “dictator wanna be” and his henchmen, who seem to enjoy defying the established laws of our Democracy, Bill of Rights as well as the Constitution.

It has become all too common place but ill-advised to create hate, fear and chaos to split the American population to incite violence and not seek compassion in the world around us. The oppression of the American people and the bloodletting has lasted too long and must be stopped now, by using the means of a political tourniquet called impeachment.

Not only prosecuting the current president but all of his political enablers, established in this administration or the tainted agencies that profess hate and the chaotic division of our country by establishing false values, fake news, conspiracy theories and the lies of foreign entities to the American people.

We are a diverse nation of established freedoms, supposedly set up on a democratic voting system that MUST NOT be controlled by or directed to vote for a president by some other countries decisions to intercede through forms of media lies as a means of directing votes for their favorite fascist.

We have been deceived by our trusting nature, that the balance of established powers can be contained when fear and chaos are the driving forces behind the overthrow of the Republican Party through the assistance of the “Grim Reaper,” self-declared to be the master obstructionist of our Senate in the bloodletting of American values.

Those who try to establish a monarchy or authoritarian control by hate, fear, and violence must be stopped and impeachment is a tool to be used to ensure that the democracy of established American values are retained and preserved in the United States of America. Good luck “Friends of Liberty” in all parties, we are with you.
