CNN anchor Jake Tapper blasted Republicans on his Sunday talking head show State of the Union for organizing a challenge to Biden electors for Wednesday’s joint session of Congress to certify the votes of the Electoral College. Tapper threw out words like sedition, coup and traitors to describe the effort by Republicans to ensure the 2020 presidential election was legitimate.
Tapper said he had invited all twelve Republican senators who have said they will challenge Biden electors and that all had declined or did not respond when asked to appear on State of the Union. Tapper cited a Civil War era quote from Ulysses S. Grant, “There are two parties now, traitors and patriots.”

They’re becoming a bit panicky knowing they are about to be exposed as complicit in the fraud. How in hell would Tapper know....we know damn well they’ve not dared to look at the evidence.
On Fox, Waaahhhhn Williams is still touting the failures before judges, none of whom have seen evidence.
Ds and media (but I repeat myself) are about to have their image, creditability, and reputations demolished. Even if DjT is unsuccessful, the evidence damns them all.

....America will cease to be a free country within the next generation.
We have already lost much of the freedom we had when I was growing up in the 1950s. It has been a long and slow process going back almost a hundred years. What we are seeing today is just the end game.
Two amendments to our Constitution set the stage for where we are today. The 17th and the 18th Amendments.
The 17th changed the way Senators were selected. The founding fathers intended for the House to represent the people and the Senate to represent the States. Once both houses were occupied by popular vote the states lost a lot of their power.
The 18th Amendment created the need for an income tax. Tax on alcohol was one of the major source of revenue for the Federal Government. The income tax opened the flood gate of money to Washington which allowed the Federal Government to grow beyond its mandate, and which gave the Federal money to bribe states to do what they (the Feds) wanted.
Prohibition also allowed gangs to form and get rich and to buy guns to kill each other which allowed the Federal Government an excuse to ignore the 2nd amendment.
The Great Depression gave the Socialist more opportunity for mischief and the new deal was created along with Social Security.
WWII ended and millions of men returned to war creating the baby boom which was the States had firm control over education ran off all Conservatives and were able to indoctrinate generations.
And here we are in 2021 where half the population is begging to become a Socialist State. We did not get to this point over night, and even in the remote chance Trump pulls a rabbit out of the house, the problem will remain. At most Trump would get four more years but the swamp will just continue to obstruct until they can put into place one of their own.
I am 74 so I really don’t have that many more years left in this world. I sure hope the young people that have been supporting socialism enjoy it because history has shown once socialist gain power they don’t give it up easily

And Tapper is so dumb, that he is clueless to the fact that he, as a co conspirator is subject to the same penalties as the main actors.

The Constitutional Structure For Limited And Balanced Government
The Constitution was devised with an ingenious and intricate built-in system of checks and balances to guard the people's liberty against combinations of government power. It structured the Executive, Legislative, and Judiciary separate and wholly independent as to function, but coordinated for proper operation, with safeguards to prevent usurpation of power. Only by balancing each against the other two could freedom be preserved, said John Adams. Another writer of the day summarized clearly the reasons for such checks and balances:
- "If the LEGISLATIVE and JUDICIAL powers are united, the MAKER of the law will also INTERPRET it (constitutionality).
- Should the EXECUTIVE and LEGISLATIVE powers be united... the EXECUTIVE power would make itself absolute, and the government end in tyranny.
- Should the EXECUTIVE and JUDICIAL powers be united, the subject (citizen) would then have no permanent security of his person or property."
"INDEED, the dependence of any of these powers upon either of the others ... has so often been productive of such calamities... that the page of history seems to be one continued tale of human wretchedness." (Theophilus Parsons, ESSEX RESULTS)
What were some of these checks and balances believed so important to individual liberty? Several are listed below:
- HOUSE (peoples representatives) is a check on SENATE - no statute becomes law without its approval.
- SENATE is a check on HOUSE - no statute becomes law without its approval. (Prior to 17th Amendment, SENATE was appointed by State legislatures as a protection for states' rights - another check the Founders provided.)
- EXECUTIVE (President) can restrain both HOUSE and SENATE by using Veto Power.
- LEGISLATIVE (Congress - Senate & House) has a check on EXECUTIVE by being able to pass, with 2/3 majority, a bill over President's veto.
- LEGISLATIVE has a further check on EXECUTIVE through power of discrimination in appropriation of funds for operation of EXECUTIVE.
- EXECUTIVE (President) must have approval of SENATE in filling important posts in EXECUTIVE BRANCH.
- EXECUTIVE (President) must have approval of SENATE before treaties with foreign nations can be effective.
- LEGISLATIVE (Congress) can conduct investigations of EXECUTIVE to see if funds are properly expended and laws enforced.
- EXECUTIVE has a further check on members of LEGISLATIVE (Congress) in using discretionary powers in decisions regarding establishment of military bases, building & improvement of navigable rivers, dams, interstate highways, etc., in districts of those members.
- JUDICIARY is a check on LEGISLATIVE through its authority to review all laws and determine their constitutionality.
- LEGISLATIVE (Congress) has restraining power over JUDICIARY, with constitutional authority to restrict extent of its jurisdiction.
- LEGISLATIVE has power to impeach members of JUDICIARY guilty of treason, high crimes, or misdemeanors.
- EXECUTIVE (President) is a check on JUDICIARY by having power to nominate new judges.
- LEGISLATIVE (Senate) is a check on EXECUTIVE and JUDICIARY having power to approve/disapprove nominations of judges.
- LEGISLATIVE is a check on JUDICIARY - having control of appropriations for operation of federal court system.
- LEGISLATIVE (Peoples Representatives) is a check on both EXECUTIVE and JUDICIARY through power to initiate amendments to Constitution subject to approval by 3/4 of the States.
- LEGISLATIVE (Senate) has power to impeach EXECUTIVE (President) with concurrence of 2/3, of members.
- The PEOPLE, through their State representatives, may restrain the power of the federal LEGISLATURE if 3/4 of the States do not ratify proposed Constitutional Amendments.
- LEGISLATIVE, by Joint Resolution, can terminate certain powers granted to EXECUTIVE (President) (such as war powers) without his consent.
- It is the PEOPLE who have the final check on both LEGISLATIVE and EXECUTIVE when they vote on their Representatives every 2 years, their Senators every 6 years, and their President every 4 years. Through those selections, they also influence the potential makeup of the JUDICIARY.
It is up to each generation to see that the integrity of the Constitutional structure for a free society is maintained by carefully preserving the system of checks and balances essential to limited and balanced government. "To preserve them (is) as necessary as to institute them," said George Washington.

I would agree with almost everything you said with one exception. This generation is less concerned with a socialist state than a socialist world. To get to that socialist world you need a “Prime Mover” so to speak. They view the U.S. as the leader of this world wide movement due to its global power/influence.
