Trump lost, and these attacks will not succeed.
But if you believe in democracy, silence is complicity.
Rush Limbaugh: “I actually think that we’re trending toward secession.” If the red states seceded they would be a third world nation. It is the blue states that keep the red state’s financially afloat. Generally, blue states pay more taxes than they receive in federal benefits!

It’s been a while since I checked the status of Rule 11, but I just assumed it was no longer a rule since federal judges keep allowing Trump’s grifters to make a mockery of their courts without sanctioning the attorneys.

The Trump administration sanctions announced yesterday on Chinese officials responsible for Hong Kong crackdown pale in scale and scope to what Obama imposed on Russia after Putin's invasion of Ukraine. https://t.co/Fnpl2f7vty

The analogy of course is not perfect. But it's a lesson in the limits of US power. Obama had few means to prevent Putin's annexation of Crimea. Trump had few means to prevent CCP crackdown in Hong Kong. My position is consistent. The double standard from others is striking.
