The Illness and Treachery of In the present day’s Supreme Court docket, continued

As an alternative of the “Supreme Court docket of america,” maybe the SCOTUS ought to rename itself this: “Supremely Compromised Outfit Focusing on america.” Focusing on it from inside.

I imagine Wednesday shall be remembered because the Pearl Harbor and “day of infamy” delivered from inside by the SCOTUS.

This identical Court docket has invited darkish cash into our political system; vetoed gun controls; refused to critique gerrymandering; ejected a 50-year precedent so as to invade ladies’s our bodies, and inform them what they’ll and can’t do with their our bodies (citing a 17^th century witch-burner of their doc in doing so); and created chaos within the nation, together with forcing ten-year-olds to flee their states to flee giving start to their rapist’s illegitimate infants. It goes on and on.

It coddles Justices who’re in gilded beds, airplanes and yachts, and sucking as much as far-right billionaires who’re drowning them in items, whereas these billionaires have instances earlier than the Court docket. The spouse of one of many Justices is on the staff that cheered on on the revolt of January 6, and whose communications with Mark Meadows proves her involvement. And that very Justice refuses to recuse himself. 

Will his spouse be referred to as as a witness in that trial? May that be a bit embarrassing? Does which have something to do with that Justice voting to delay the trial till after the election?

Clearly, the SCOTUS is on the poll this November. Clearly, President Biden, it’s time you talked OUT LOUD about increasing the Court docket to 13 members. Put THAT on the poll this Fall. Let that be a significant speaking level for the election, and it’ll electrify a wanted debate among the many citizenry. It can additionally get voters out to vote.

Fascism is on the poll too. Hallmarks of any fascist regime are the next (ask Hitler):

• Create an authoritarian cult of character organized round a charismatic chief who dictates to everyone what to assume and what to do;
• Refuse to simply accept the outcomes of democratic elections that don’t go their manner;
• Embrace—or refuse to disavow—political violence as a mechanism for attaining political energy;
• Corrupt, denounce, or just ignore the judicial system;
• Create its personal model of legal guidelines that the chief invents to serve his or her functions. 

Evil is alive and properly on the SCOTUS. Evil likes to invade locations of energy.
