Like the Thirty Tyrants, the Dems are more than happy to make helpful arrangements with America’s external enemies in order to keep power.

“The Thirty Tyrants’ brief reign was marred by violence and corruption. Historians have argued that the violence and brutality the Thirty carried out in Athens was necessary to transition Athens from a democracy to an oligarchy.[15] However, the more violent the Thirty’s regime became, the more opposition they faced.[15]

The increased level of opposition ultimately led to the overthrow of the Thirty’s regime by Thrasybulus’ rebel forces.”
