Latest warning (August 2) of assaults on U.S. democracy comes loud and clear from the American Bar Association’s Task Force for American Democracy.

“Our country and democracy face a wide variety of serious threats, including that of rising authoritarianism. For the first time in our history, we did not have a peaceful transition of power in our last presidential election.”

When the American Bar Association forms a Task Force with a focus on American democracy and officially calls on America’s lawyers to take up the call to defend U.S. constitutional democracy against serious threats of “rising authoritarianism,” we probably should heed the warning.

Inside America’s Blues

American way of life is in danger. Yes, it’s been here before; yet the nation has always, somehow, found a way to step back from the abyss. Sometimes not many steps back, but back.

Today, it’s different. America has not seen the current threats to its constitutional life since the Civil War.

And just as real as was the War that almost split the country in two, or three, or four, the current assault on our way of life is reaching very close to the levels of disruption and destruction of that War.

If not for those who dedicated their lives to saving the United States of America, today we would not be a beacon to the World; not even a dim light.

Stand Up! Be Counted! Be Accountable! Be Free!
