Fascism, neo- or otherwise, isn't like an oppressive hereditary monarch.
We're dealing with a mass movement. Anti-democracy, anti-rights, anti-liberal. In numerous countries, with considerable transnational solidarity.
For example, this crowd wasn't reluctantly forced into it. They're ecstatic.

I was just told last night that my disabled son may lose 2/3s of his caregiver funds. This pays me to be his trained, live-in caregiver, and if anything it will CAUSE US to become homeless.
All while Trump lives for free off tax payers.
Anyone can become disabled at any time.

At a time when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction.
But not Jack Smith.
Kudos to him for continuing to be a much needed voice of clarity.

Before calling someone a “dirtbag,” the Senator should have had his facts straight. An apology is in order.

Even if a federal prosecutor was watching the Atlanta Hawks and not the Iowa Hawkeyes, I still think crime should be treated as illegal, and coup attempts should be treated as bad.
