I am not up on my MCU lore.

I liken the current situation to the siege of Minas Tirith by the goblin army. Maybe we've slowed the approach of the battering ram Grond to the gates, but a whole lot has to be done successfully in sequence, before we drive the forces of Sauron from the city and give the Hobbits some breathing room for trekking across Mordor.

Currently we're depending a lot on follow-through by the Democratic caucus to actually push through some accountability and relief. And at the moment they are looking to put the old guard leadership back in place. There's even been talk of a coronation of Schumer, rather than a vote. So some of us are calling / writing to our congresscritters that we want new leadership since the old dudes are known for being the pawl (in the rachet effect).

The long game is to wrest the stellar amounts of capital owned by the plutocratic class, since otherwise they'll only come back with new xenophobic ideologues and new strongman leaders, and new, better propaganda to sway the masses. Democracy and humanity are unlikely to survive the next onslaught.
