RE: "This is, in itself, a major assault on American democracy."
And it's happened before. Plantation Oligarchs started a Civil War to end our democracy. Oligarchs for the Industrial Age tried to remove FDR and end our democracy. More recently, today's oligarchs helped fund the attempted coup of January 6th.

It's almost like Ground Hog Day. Wealth grows as laws change to benefit oligarchs again and again.
On top of repeated crimes, oligarchs are never held accountable. Slavery oligarchs were let free to figure out how to re-enslave the freed slaves and others. Industrial age oligarchs were never jailed for trying to replace FDR. DJT will never see the inside of a prison cell and new attempts to regulate our democracy killers - oligarchs, who "have become richer than any time in human history ...," will now take a much larger democratic responce than we saw in 2020.
We need to elect a plurality of Congressional representatives who are not beholding to these democracy killer - oligarchs. This Brand New Congress will need to pass laws we've never seen before to permanently disempower today's oligarchs and to prevent any future oligarchs. We need new laws to change our authoritarian economic system that keeps enabling oligarchs to try again and again to destroy democracy. We need new laws that will create a more democratic economic system that will stop enriching democracy killers - oligarchs.
I would ask, Is Capitalism the Biggest Threat to America & Democracy? It is authoritarian Capitalism that nurtures and rebirths oligarchs.
