barovsky, The New Dark Age - 16 hours ago

For example, the Labour Party in the UK is now calling for emergency ‘anti-vaccine’ laws:

Stages and Risks involving the 2020 Presidential Election
Uriel, 'Nox & Friends - 16 hours ago
We all as regular citizens at this stage are at best only armchair quarterbacks in the 2020 Presidential Election process. The Democrats have clearly been planning and making preparations with specific goals and objectives in mind. Those plans either entail knee-jerk panicking, attempting to force a civil revolution, or more likely both. Republicans have been doing the same for the most part by defending against the Democrat moves. The absolutely unfortunate part of this particular election cycle is the overt and clearly defined movement of the Democrat Party away from our constitut...
