As the nation staggers toward the 2026 round of midterm elections,
the threats to the integrity of U.S. democracy
— already a veritable hailstorm of partisan contention
— have escalated dramatically under the second Trump administration,
attaining something like hurricane force.
Owing to the fevered narratives proliferating across right-wing media,
