Excellent essay. This regime sickens me. The endless stupidity masked as skills and the unmitigated cruelty is boundless. The end cannot be soon enough. When they are removed, there needs to be an accounting of everything they have done and consequences for their actions.

Good piece, Steve. Wish it all was a bad dream.

Is it any wonder that people are furious?

Unfortunately, the lunatics among us get to play the rage game as well?

This piece is powerful and true…and bewildering and infuriating. I’m surprised Trump has not renamed the Supreme Court in his honor, as he did the Institute of Peace after tearing that institution down and apart. It is definitely NOT the Roberts Court. It is now the Trump Court…and it certainly ‘courts’ Trump. It gives him a pacifier when he cries and hands him a lollipop when he throws a tantrum. “There, there, Darling,” they croon with their crooked rulings that are only intended to mollify this bad-tempered monarch.

My G-D…where does this all end? Elections have profound consequences as we all know, and the Court seems determined to help Trump/MAGA/ The Federalist Society stay in power so they can finish off any vestige of justice. Pardons are raining down like water…but a fierce force of democracy is getting hungrier with each passing day.

Beware the lion in winter.

Steven thanks ;

Spellbinding detail and with helpful embedded links, a resulting masterpiece of revelations of the ongoing total corruption of decrepit Trump.

He hides nothing now, at least regarding his corruption and acts of inhumanity, and eagerness to honor the most irreverent ignominious, dangerous creatures.

Trump has pardoned quite a list of convicted drug offenders which makes me question how much he has been paid in drug $$ for the pardons?
