I am remembering Paul Wellstone, a member of the US Senate who couldn't be silenced until his plane mysteriously crashed... an "accident" that resulted in the removal of the most courageous, outspoken, and honorable Senator we had and the turnover of the Senate from a Democratic majority to a Republican majority.
Certainly, Wellstone's death must be on the minds of every member of congress, who might be wondering if there is any lie, crime, or atrocity that this administration is incapable of perpetrating if they consider it necessary to accomplish their goals.
If what I am imagining is anywhere near the truth, then the republic is lost... unless a great many citizens soon come to the realization that their personal contribution of courage and citizenship is now required and they are willing to offer it in a responsible way.
