Winston Churchill, dead in 1965, couldn't have imagined the interwebs. But his language survives: People are talking about a new Iron Curtain descending in Eastern Europe, thanks to Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine.
And as Ukrainians fight for democracy in their country, the metaphorical struggle continues in the United States. We're learning more and more about Benedict Donald's efforts to subvert the 2020 election and stay in power. Exhibit A is Roger Stone. WTF is going on there, we ask?
Listen, everyone: You don't have to steep yourselves in every detail to know that our American democracy — and democracies around the world — are under siege. Or to know that the Trumpsters are on the side of the Putinesque opponents of the democratic ideal.
Take it from us: If Churchill were alive today, he'd be warning the West against Rupert Murdoch's "news" empire and Benedict Donald's (and Republicans') support of Vladimir Putin. He would have railed against January 6. We could use a voice like his right now. We cats PURR.
