Democracy Must Be Protected
b'Democracy is not doomed. We can fight for it. But the first step is to acknowledge we HAVE to fight for it. To recognize the reality of what CAN happen, and accept what WILL happen, if we don\\u2019t all work together to fix what\\u2019s broken. Democracy is under attack and it\\u2019s under attack, not from outside forces, but from one of the two major parties right here in the US. This is an unprecedented crisis that must be met with unified resistance. We are at the tipping point. We must make sure enough of us tip the direction in democracy\\u2019s favor.\\n\\nThank you to today\\u2019s sponsors!\\nBlinkist: http://www.blinkist.com/politicsgirl\\nSunbasket: https://sunbasket.com/politicsgirl\\nWondrium: https://wondrium.com/politicsgirl\\n\\nPlease RATE and SUBSCRIBE so we can grow the show, open the dialogue and inspire better change moving forward!\\n\\nWatch the show in video format on YouTube.\\nFollow my Twitter.\\nFollow my Instagram.\\nWatch my Rants on TikTok.\\nLike the Facebook Page.\\n\\nThe PoliticsGirl Podcast is a Meidas Touch original podcast produced by Happy Warrior Entertainment.\\n\\xa0\\nSOURCES:\\n\\nhttps://www.cnn.com/2020/12/14/politics/larry-hogan-2020-election-trump-biden-cnntv/index.html\\n\\nhttps://www.nytimes.com/2020/12/14/us/representative-paul-mitchell-leaves-republican-party-over-its-refusal-to-accept-trumps-loss.html\\n\\nhttps://www.axios.com/midnight-is-approaching-to-pass-voting-rights-protections-d3d8cb12-3b2c-4422-8eee-f60425265472.html\\n\\nhttps://www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/article-the-american-polity-is-cracked-and-might-collapse-canada-must-prepare/\\n\\nhttps://www.pnas.org/content/118/50/e2102149118\\n\\nhttps://www.pnas.org/content/118/50/e2102144118\\n\\nhttps://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/05/opinion/jan-6-jimmy-carter.html?smtyp=cur&smid=tw-nytopinion\\n\\nhttps://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2022/01/january-6-insurrection-trump-coup-2024-election/620843/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=atlantic-daily-newsletter&utm_content=20211206&utm_term=The%20Atlantic%20Daily\\n\\nhttps://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2021/12/the-autocrats-are-winning/620526/?utm_medium=cr&utm_source=email&utm_campaign=december_cover_prospects_b&utm_content=B&utm_term=Prospects\\n\\nhttps://www.wondrium.com/is-western-democracy-threatening-suicide?tn=632_tray_Course_1_0_18579&lec=1\\n\\nhttps://winstonchurchill.org/resources/quotes/the-worst-form-of-government/\\n\\nhttps://www.republicanleader.senate.gov/about\\n\\nhttps://www.vox.com/22840615/us-defense-spending-increase-afghanistan-withdrawal\\n\\nhttps://www.britannica.com/topic/democracy\\n\\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Democracy\\n\\nhttps://apnews.com/article/democrats-popular-vote-win-d6331f7e8b51d52582bb2d60e2a007ec\\n\\nhttps://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/03/us/politics/trump-endorses-viktor-orban-hungary.html\\n\\nhttps://www.history.com/topics/france/alexis-de-tocqueville\\n\\nhttps://www.theatlantic.com/author/yascha-mounk/\\n\\nhttps://www.theatlantic.com/author/kori-schake/\\n\\nhttps://www.britannica.com/biography/Bernard-Henri-Levy\\n\\nhttps://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/authors/AQp3hO-GQyI/clive-crook'
