The lies of the American system of government exposed by the Supreme Court’s abortion draft ruling.

I’m not in favor of unrestricted abortion, but the way the US Supreme Court operates is the most terrifying thing about living in America today.

Our government officials wag the finger at other countries and call them “flawed democracies”, yet, in the past 15 months we’ve now had a president who lost the election, and instead of admitting he lost, he drew up plans for a stroke of state instead, which even went so far as plotting a federal invasion of states that he lost to force them to “correct” their election so that they would throw out votes until he “won”, he encouraged a right-wing mob of psychopaths, losers, and other assorted nuts to assault Congress and tear apart the building and threaten to savagely murder his own sitting Vice President.

All of this because they counted the Electoral Votes that the state governments had certified. Many times after two recounts or so, which in most cases _added_ votes for Joe Biden that were not scanned correctly by the machines…increasing the size of Trump’s loss in recounts that he paid for, with members of his mobs “supervising” the process and sometimes being hauled away in handcuffs for punching election officials.

Once we had barely escaped the clutches of a would-be Vladimir Putin, and Joe Biden took office, Biden set out to mostly continue the policies of Trump, even on immigration.

Right now, in the midst of the unprovoked and dastardly Russian attack on Ukraine, hundreds of refugees who managed to make it to the United States, land of alleged “Freedom”, are sitting in immigration concentration camps set up by Trump, which are overflowing, and where promised reforms go to die along with many of the children that the federal government separates from their parents.

And if that wasn’t bad enough, we now have a 6-3 Republican legislature that absolutely nobody elected, which has struck down Roe v. Wade in such a way that is designed to take away basic rights, freedoms, and civil liberties that are built upon viewing the 14th Amendment as providing the privacy and equal protection of the laws that the courts have been saying it did for several decades.

It won’t be enough to uproot abortion. They could have decided to overturn Roe v. Wade as Constitutionally defective in numerous ways that were not as far reaching as the leaked draft does. They could have based their decision, quite simply, on the fact that the 14th Amendment does not confer a right to murder, but they didn’t.

Their next steps will be to rip up every decision based upon the 14th Amendment.

Are you married? It will depend on which state you live in. Can you even buy condoms or birth control, or do the Comstock Laws come back? Depends on what state you live in.

It could even get worse than that, and we have to believe that it will given the fact that the unelected Republican judges can hardly seem to contain their joy at attacking the Constitution itself.

Some “news” articles claimed that John Roberts was seriously concerned that Americans would stop seeing the US Supreme Court as legitimate, however they were obviously wrong.

When whoever leaked the draft ruling made the foul stench of the Supreme Court transparent while the unelected Republican judges obviously preferred to lob it like a grenade at the end of the term and get out of Dodge, instead of trying to calm the American public by saying that was a draft which would undergo revision in order to tamp down the hysteria of some of the most unqualified, unintelligent, and unimaginative Supreme Court judges ever to put on the robe, Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, Roberts instead chose to put on his MAGA hat and declare that they will find who leaked their opinion and that they will be punished for giving the American public a sneak preview of the all out war on our elected government, democracy, and settled Constitutional law.

There is very little democracy in America. The next Presidential election will be very hard fought.

It will take a massive Biden win in the popular vote to get a very narrow victory in the Electoral College.

Why? Simply put, in 2020, Biden’s victory was so large it even took the Republicans in states who figured it was a sure thing for Trump and didn’t bother to interfere much with the process by surprise.

Since then, they’ve purged legitimate voters from the rolls, enacted laws that make voting a felony in some cases, and at least a couple are allowing armed right-wing thugs to stand at the polling places next time threatening to kill people who show up to try to vote.

None of this happened overnight, and not all of it is Donald Trump’s legacy.

While George W. Bush was in office claiming that America would “export democracy” to the world (and ending up creating new Muslim governments ruled by terrorists, which wouldn’t even be strong enough to put down the door-to-door death squads that Saddam kept under control), he was busy appointing judges to dismantle the United States Constitution. They were dormant, in wait, until Trump added some more.

And now an entire generation of Americans, only 20% or so which agree with where this court is going, will have to live with one unpopular and unconstitutional ruling after another.

This is a very sad and dark day for America. I used to point to the PATRIOT Act as the day the America that I grew up in finally died, but the Republicans have given us so many days that compare to that, that I don’t even know that I can give you a time of death anymore.

This court has no value placed on a human life. They never stopped Bush or Trump from ordering hits on American citizens who never got a trial.

We don’t really know whether the feds are holding American citizens, how many, or where, with no judicial review. People go missing all the time, never to be heard from again.

How many of them are in a deep dark hole somewhere after Bush and Trump issued memos while CNN was posting articles on the effects of inflation on horseback riding lessons at Summer Camp and books recommended by Creepy Uncle Bill Gates? (Who is still free after befriending several known child rapists and flying on jets to their secret child rape islands, and having “engineers” with dungeons of child porn in his house.)

No, most Americans are no longer smart enough to “get” what the real issues are, and many more are so mean that they’re like my parents.

A few years left to live, and they have like…no magnificence in their souls.

They get their kicks by leaving a dying world and a dystopian fascist state for their kids to live in.

If we do not rise up and replace what they have unfolding, we will not have a country to inherit.
