As annoying as the phenomenon of "Fake News" is, there is something far more dangerous afoot that I fear can bring down our Republic.

It is "Fake Government"--which I see as self-serving, greedy men and women using their elected offices to enrich themselves, unrestrained by term limits, while playing 'gotcha' politics to ensure their permanent place in office until they choose to retire.

You pretty much describe the Roman Senate of old.

What is happening is Obstruction of Governance

The obstructors don’t need a special prosecutor to be rounded up and detained indefinitely as enemies of the state.

The policy should be catch and detain
