The Heritage Foundation, or as I like to call them, the National Association of Zealots and Ideologues, represents a broken and twisted philosophy, a sick combination of fascism and Christian reconstructionalism. So it\u2019s no surprise that their hirelings are also broken and twisted creatures.<\/p>\n
Take the six \u201cjustices\u201d that the Foundation lied, cheated and stole in order to infiltrate the Supreme Court. That suborned court is presently pretending to \u201cdeliberate\u201d over whether a President or former president has absolute legal immunity for any actions taken while holding office.<\/p>\n
They spent this week, after weeks of absurd delay, quibbling with lawyers over whether a president could be held accountable for \u201cofficial acts\u201d versus personal misdeeds. It\u2019s a distinction without a difference; if it is an illegal act, then by definition it is not an official act. Presidents are required to \u201cfaithfully execute the laws of the United States.\u201d Their own constitutional job description deems illegal acts to be outside the duties and responsibilities of the office. Were he not so hopelessly corrupt, even the befuddled and pampered pet of billionaires, Clarence Thomas, would be able to discern that. (Slappy made one real contribution to the proceedings, wanting to know if the appointment of Jack Smith as special prosecutor was legal. It didn\u2019t have anything to do with this case, and I\u2019m sure his wife, Gin Soaked, put him up to it. I doubt he has the wit to think of it for himself.)<\/p>\n
The court will doubtlessly remand this case to the lower courts, who already made their decision loud and clear. Stripped of the legal niceties, they perceived the claim of absolute right of presidents to be a huge load of utter rubbish and about as unAmerican as it gets. But remanding it means the court gets to pretend to \u2018consider\u2019 it again no sooner than October, and can wait until five months after the election to decide if Trump can be held liable for his many crimes or not.<\/p>\n
Yes, the true purpose of all this is to delay the various trials of Donald Trump until after the election. If the Heritage Foundation can only steal this coming election the way they stole the last five of six elections that produced a Republican president, then they can grandly declare the Republican President has the divine right of kings and end this democracy nonsense once and for all. But they can\u2019t do that right now. After all, that would be giving BIDEN unlimited power and he might use it to order the Supreme Court (well, two thirds of it) taken out and shot, or Trump assassinated. (Assassinating Trump is pretty much redundant at this point; he\u2019s well topped himself with his ongoing antics and clear lack of power in the court and on his silly vanity social media.)<\/p>\n
Trump cannot possibly win a fair election. The primaries show that a full third of Republican voters want anyone other than Trump. He has only 30% support from independents and that\u2019s plummeting in the face of Trump\u2019s weakness and culpability on display in the ongoing trial. But the Heritage Foundation, with the backing of most of America\u2019s 850 billionaires, is working hard to keep Republicans in control of government, or, failing that, to at least have enough votes in the gerrymandered House and corn-and-sagebrush-weighted Senate to keep a second Biden term paralyzed and ineffectual. (Most people still don\u2019t understand how fantastic the accomplishments of the first Biden term\u2014the roaring economy, the explosion of manufacturing jobs, the rise of unions and wages\u2014were, despite the unending efforts of Republicans to subvert and deny such accomplishments.)<\/p>\n
Thanks to the power of propaganda, people still blame Democrats for the economy (always better under Democratic administrations), the debt (90% of which came from Republican policies and misadventures) and the border (a non-crisis that is exacerbated by Republican refusal to consider legislation that they themselves introduced to try and codify American policy toward refugees.)<\/p>\n
Never mind Trump\u2019s lies and bullshit. The far more dangerous ones are the ones promoted endlessly on the propaganda outlets like Faux News and church pulpits.<\/p>\n
How effective is it? The Republicans have taken out the old Reagan chestnut \u201cAre you better off now than you were four years ago?\u201d and are running on it, despite the obvious and clear evidence that virtually everyone, including the people asking that question, are in fact better off now than they were four years ago when hundreds of thousands were dying of COVID, unemployment was more than double what it is now, and the president was a psychotic liar.<\/p>\n
Stolen elections? They\u2019ll have you think it\u2019s Democrats. But if you look at people indicted and convicted of election or voter fraud, nearly all of them are Republicans. Which party has administration officials facing trial for falsifying election certifications?<\/p>\n
Even as Trump disintegrates, expect a blizzard of lies and hate from the National Association of Zealots and Ideologues. To them, the brass ring is nearly in grasp. They only need one final election to seal the deal, and erect the Christian Fascist state they dream of, where workers are powerless and frightened, consumers are captive and utterly at the mercy of merchants, minorities of all kinds dehumanized and cut off from society, and questioning any of this is not only treason, but sacrilege.<\/p>\n
They almost have America. They can taste it.<\/p>\n
And once they have it, they don\u2019t plan to share it with you.<\/p>\n
America won\u2019t be yours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
