In a shocking but not surprising new event, the Supreme Court essentially destroyed the very tenets of freedom upon which this country was built. Well, allegedly because the same men fighting for independence were still slave owners, but without further digression, the Revolutionary War was essentially fought to eliminate monarchical rule, specifically under King George III.
Still, less than one year out from the 250th anniversary of when the first shots were fired from that war, the social experiment called the United States (sponsored by democracy) is now on the brink of being a totalitarian institution.
Today, July 1., 2024, The Supreme Court essentially ruled that a president is immune of a crime as long as he is operating in an official presidential capacity. Whenever our lawmakers, our upholders, are allowed to break laws, then we are officially in trouble. One where old white men can play f*ckball with the entire world’s population instead of going to therapy or being better people is nothing new, but the technology to destroy has never been more readily available than ever before.
The Supreme Court has become consumed by a corruption crisis beyond its control.

Today’s ruling represents an assault on American democracy. It is up to Congress to defend our nation from this authoritarian capture.
I intend on filing articles of impeachment upon our return.
If elected, Trump will not only be immune from his current crimes but also from future ones, barring those executed in an official presidential capacity.
Yeah, okay.
At this rate, what is to keep him from killing his political opponents with impunity? What is keeping him from killing us with impunity?
As we saw on Jan. 6.. 2021, this same person’s fanbase attempted to overthrow the country completely; what is stopping him from forming his own militia and allowing new laws to be written and codified with his kingship in mind? The entire purpose of the three branches of government is accountability, not necessarily alliance. If there is no governing without checks and balances, then there is no governing; there is only ruling. For those unfamiliar with Project 2025, it is a 900-plus-page document that wants to undermine many American liberties and establish rule by white nationalists. Its goals are to essentially eradicate government agencies, like the DOJ and the EPA, as well as give Trump more power.
Thanks to the Supreme Court, the next president will have the powers of a king. That’s not what the founders intended. Quite the opposite.

Overturning Roe took power from women.
Today’s decision takes power from all of us.
From the looks of the most recent ruling, The Supreme Court is already starting early and is looking to hand Trump the Führership whether he wins fair and square or not.
America, you in danger, girl.
