Send letters with glitter that just say that you will stop sending letters when they start responding to phone calls and emails.

The checks & balances are poof, gone. And I really wish more people in this country were paying attention to what just happened in South Dakota—the citizens literally voted IN FAVOR of passing anti-corruption laws in November, it had majority bipartisan support, and...the newly elected GOP last week held an emergency…

Most “libertarians” are Republicans who don’t go to church.

This is also a thing that happened, per Politico:

And the frosting on that martial law cake will be filling their coffers with “suspects’ assets.”

The Republican Party decided it doesn’t care for checks and balances when it’s in power.

they are in the process of being systematically destroyed, by executive order, senate confirmation and tweets in the middle of the night.
