Just more Republican fascism where Republicans will overturn elections they lose to give themselves a victory against the will of the people. No freedom exists with the fascist GOP.

With the world literally spiraling into chaos and disaster under Ukraine Joe and his corrupt family, the best radicalized leftists have to deflect attention is a fake talking point on banned books.  Currently, the only banned writing in the entire US is the manifesto of the leftist terrorist in Nashville.  Every book ever written in human history is available to any American citizen.  Concerned parents and school board members removing a book from a public school for age-based content is not a ban.  Even if this false claim is repeated over and over.

Republicans hate democracy and the First Amendment. They want to control what you can read and ban whatever they don't like. That is fascism.
