To stay on realistic grounds, one could see all "Republican plans" as "Foment-fear-and-control" plans.

A bill is never a done deal. Out of 12,000 bills presented in the 118th, only 34 were enacted. It's good to know about this bill and also keep in mind that this is just a bill.

While imagining that lawless henchmen in govt might ignore the facts and law, one can overlook that hundreds of thousands of Americans have shown up at Bernie rallies because they know it's Americans' job to defend theirs and their children's human rights from totalitarian threats or attacks, whether they're in the form of E.O.'s, military deployments, or even bills.

No offense intended, but when it comes to OP's about republican/oligarch driven bills, we on DU don't really need to let that information trigger fearful imaginings and/or predictions that take up our collective mental space. It would be kinda like doing the felon's work for him.
