although the top court of 6 justices is in shithole's pocket for now.

Reading the history of the USA, seems WE THE PEOPLE constantly have to deal with RWers who hate democracy to the extent of 1st Civil War, Reconstruction, Jim Crow, etc.

I think WE THE PEOPLE although we are in a economic crisis, military present, and the total incompetence and stupidly engulf the federal government, GQP control of both branches of congress who are crazier than the craziest all of which have evil intentions while wrap in the flag and holding a Bible.

My opinion, we will survive this too.
