You are right, but at least they have some leverage to keep some conservative representative in congress, and appoint conservative judges once in a while. It contains the evil at least a little bit, for now.
Is it sufficient? no. I'm just comparing to other countries where the progressive population is so overwhelmingly large that there is literally no restrain.

Folks, this is going to get worse before it gets better. The wonderful thing is that God is in control.

Conservatism is good at conserving gas as we drive off the cliff.

Live by God's Word and you will be the alternative society you are looking for. The rest can burn like the chaff it is.

While we were watching Canada, 4 GOP Senators (Romney, Graham, Inhofe, and Burr) skipped a vote that would have defunded Biden's mandates.

And then after watching that vote go down, 19 GOP Senators voted FOR funding mandates. Most don't surprise me, though I was surprised that Kennedy from LA voted to fund the vax or be fired mandates.

Barrasso (WY)
Blunt (MO)
Capito (WV)
Cassidy (LA)
Collins (ME)
Cornyn (TX)
Hagerty (TN)
Hyde-Smith (MS)
Kennedy (LA)
McConnell (KY)
Moran (KS)
Murkowski (AK)
Portman (OH)
Rounds (SD)
Rubio (FL)
Shelby (AL)
Tillis (NC)
Wicker (MS)
Young (IN)

And the GOP has been hoping to run on freedom from COVID tyranny in the midterms? Hard to do that when 1/3 of your own party, including the SML McConnell are voting to continue funding vax mandates.

It's all an act, they are all puppets, bought and paid for, following the script.

There is always "literal tyranny in our time", in every one of us every day we wake up and look in the mirror and examine our hearts. Like Adam and Eve before us, we all want to be gods. Some of us, but not enough of us, have been graced with the great fortune of being granted repentance from such delusions. The rest, however, just keep plugging away.
