What is this BS about picking battles??!! It's all a battle. They are at war against democracy and the US. When at war don't give an inch. If we don't take to the streets, we the people will have nothing left. We can not sit back and wait for leaders. They are apparently ok with that slippery slope sliding into fascism.
