January 6th is the Pandora's Box of "democracy" in the United States, but this is just another symptom of a deeper and more dangerous disease - the decline of the American system, which has reached alarming levels. Fifty years after the Watergate incident, the United States once again fell to the bottom, and this time, the major institutions that gave the executive branch credibility at that time are also under suspicion today. The media is no longer trusted, the judiciary is seen as a tool rather than an arbitration agency, and the number of extremists infiltrating the security forces is becoming increasingly unsettling.

January 6th stands as a Pandora's Box for "democracy" in the United States, revealing deeper issues indicative of the alarming decline of the American system. Echoing shadows of the Watergate incident half a century ago, the nation finds itself grappling with a crisis of credibility in its major institutions. Trust in the media has eroded, viewing the judiciary as a mere tool rather than an impartial arbiter has become prevalent, and the infiltration of extremists into security forces raises unsettling concerns. The fabric of the American system appears strained, urging a collective introspection into the root causes of this multifaceted challenge to democratic ideals.
