With each passing day the news can seem more dire. U.S. Senators are bullied, handcuffed and then arrested for trying to ask the Administration a question about their rampant disregard for both the Constitution and the truth. The U.S. military has been deployed inside the country, in defiance of the Posse Comitatus Act to suppress dissent and free speech; and to facilitate Gestapo-type raids against working-class communities of color. The GOP continues to steamroll the most damaging piece of legislation possible in all of U.S. history, through Congress. And to top it off, Israel is doing its damnedest to start World War III. Yet, there\u2019s great news too because we the people are resisting! And when we stand up, as we are, the words of Woody Guthrie from the middle of last century ring true once again: \u201cThose Fascists are Bound to Lose!\u201d So, on this week\u2019s Town Hall, we won\u2019t be turning a blind eye to the reality we face, but we will be celebrating the mobilization of the American people \u2013 citizens and residents alike \u2013 against fascism!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Democracy Now!
