Perhaps rather than demanding hundreds of thousands of dollars, the senators could simply apologize to the nation for violating their oaths of office and lending rhetorical support to criminal conspiracies to overturn a free and fair election.

The Law Allowing Senators to Sue Over Phone Searches is Worse Than You Thought
The controversial new measure paves the way for a big payday for senators—and undercuts reasonable debate about how the Justice Department should investigate Congress.

This is an important part of the problem. If you tell people that what they're seeing in 2025 (or what they saw under Nixon or Reagan or Bush) is "fascism," they'll say: Well, I guess it's not so bad.
Or to put it another way, if we insist on saying the way the USA functions right now is "fascism", then it might lead a lot of people to think "hey, fascism isn't so bad, what's all the fuss about?".
Let's not neutralize the word or the concept by pretending that it is upon us now.
