Down with the Kingmakers!

 

 

 

It is Independence Day 2024 as I write. It's rather ironic to be celebrating our independence from the old British monarchy, from the whims of King George when the majority of our own Supreme Court have just turned the United States of America into a kingdom.  Our President has been granted full immunity from any official acts he might perform in office (can you believe it?). The "gift" is little short of The Enabling Act (Ermächtigungsgesetz) of 1933 in pre-war Germany. But wait, this is the USA. We don't do kings, right?? Correct.......BUT since we have one now perhaps there's someway we can turn the clock back.

How about demanding "King Joe" pack SCOTUS with justices who don't have fascist tendencies? FDR threatened to do that back in the day. Did he really have the power to do such a thing? If so, and those clear thinking justices become the majority, might they revisit the immunity decision and reverse it? I'm no lawyer or student of the Court but if that is doable what's to keep us from acting on it? Presumably there is not enough time to do that, if it's possible, before the election in November. In that case, could our new King delay the election? It all sounds a bit crazy, yes?  

Of course it's crazy. We have gone down the proverbial rabbit hole in this country since His Malignancy took office in 2017. The MAGA death cult has transformed the once "Party of Law & Order" into a sham, an evil clown show your grandparents would never have conceived of as they put out Old Glory in front of their homes on the 4th of July.
