“This column is a plea to our readers to help get responses from groups whose duties and rhetoric should cause them to become much more active in countering the fascistic, dictatorial actions of Tyrant Trump. All these groups have diminished themselves and their real potential to generate strong direct democratic pressures and arouse the citizenry. We can guess the answer as to why these groups are so meek, but what is needed is for these groups to answer for themselves: 1) Why aren’t the Democrats in Congress, just a few votes from a majority, much more aggressive vis-à-vis the controlling Republicans and President Donald Trump? Voters are vociferously demanding this at town meetings.” (09/06/25)
