But if you don't face reality and take it on, it has a way of biting you in the ass further down the road.

One wishes our Attorney General had the courage and honesty to bluntly lay out for the American people and the world the genuine threat our form of government faces because one of our political parties has been captured by neofascists, instead of implying that there are "bad people on both sides."

Today's speech by President Biden, however, specifically and clearly pointed out the dangers we face because the Republican Party has embraced a wannabe fascist dictator who openly disdains democracy.

It was brilliant.

As he said, we stand at an inflection point of history. The fate of democracy here and around the world is actually hanging in the balance.

Hopefully our Attorney General was listening.
