5. I take exception to the use of the term "conservative Freedom Caucus"

They represent exactly the opposite of freedom. A correct term would be "Fascist Caucus". They insult the term "Freedom" and stand without exception in contradiction to every article of the Constitution. They only freedom they enjoy is to abuse the First Amendment to spread misinformation and outright lies in support of their beloved Nazi Fuhrer, Herr Trump. There conduct, in my estimation, makes them enemies of the Republic and should be made to justify their attack on the bedrock principles upon which this nation was founded. We are under attack but those who are intent on transforming our government into a authoritarian dictatorship with unlimited powers. This is not a new development, but has been objective dating from the presidency of Reagan and the neo-cons who attempted to achieve this under the claim of that the executive branch has absolute control over all three branches of government which stands in contradiction to the separation of powers as laid out in the Constitution and amply verified by the Federalist papers.
