You have reason to suspect that what goes on in Washington DC is the greatest racketeering operation ever run on God’s green earth. “A threat to our democracy!” the Party of Chaos spouted incessantly during the election campaign in re: Donald J. Trump. “Democracy Dies in Darkness,” The Washington Post still declares on its name-plate. Yet, who exactly kept the lights off the past four years? Who scrambled the brains of the nation’s management and thinking classes? Who made mental illness aspirational?
You begin to detect that by “our democracy” they actually meant “our everlasting grift.” And it didn’t die in darkness — it thrived, grew, and spread in the moist bureaucratic darkness like the Devil’s own slime mold. And now it is being revealed, to the astonished disgust of slightly more than half the nation that was not on-the-take. Turn over a log in the woods and you have the metaphor for “our democracy.” Countless hundred-footed things slither around under it, their feeding interrupted . . .
“A threat to our democracy!”, these lying grifters howl, as they wrap themselves in the flag. I believe this is what Dr. Johnson had in mind when he wrote that "patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel".
They don't want democracy. They don't even really want socialism, despite their claims otherwise. They want a growing, unregulated and unaccountable bureaucracy in which it is easy to hide billions of taxpayer dollars which can be diverted to their compatriots and themselves.

Scholz accused VP Vance of interfering in internal politics by meeting AfD. It just struck me that's word for word what Chinese Communist Party says when outsiders meet the Dalai Lama. Way to prove Vance's point.
