Mere days before Donald Trump is to be inaugurated [15], Bill Weinberg continues to raise the demand for nullification [16] of his election on 14th Amendment grounds. As Congress certified his victory [17] last week, a demonstration [18] calling for this was held in Washington, organized by podcaster (and former [19] Trump campaign worker) Jessica Denson [20]. But the centrist establishment—including Kamala Harris, who presided [21] over the certification—is utterly capitulating to the fascist takeover [22] of the country. In vivid contrast, protesters courageously take to the streets and politicians refuse cooperation to defend democracy from authoritarian power-grabs in South Korea [23], Georgia [24], Romania [25], Slovakia [26] and Mozambique [27]. In Episode 260 [28], the CounterVortex podcast [29] urges a last-ditch line of defense: pressure on Chief Justice John Roberts to refuse to administer [30] the oath of office.
