Freedom and democracy is always under attack, BUT
never so blatantly as with the arrogant, egotistical, would-be dictator, now screaming against 'so-called' judges and 'fake news' from the mainstream media, or EVERYONE but FOX.
Anyone who could listen to his opening remarks at CPAC and not be scared is either not paying attention, or part of the problem (sheep).
Western democracies depend on various institutions to mediate differences and provide the checks and balances of lawful governance. They include a free press, an independent judiciary, political parties and the Congress or parliament. All are under withering attack from the populist, xenophobic nationalists who are attempting to replace representative democracy with something else.
