America is no longer a functioning democracy. It is a competitive authoritarian system, hurtling rapidly toward authoritarianism.
This was a hard piece to write but we can't move forward if we don’t acknowledge where we are.

If he subscribed to Democracy Docket he would have learned about this on Monday. Don't make the same mistake sign-up now. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0
