Why don't we just face the truth. Conservative Anglo-Americans are so terrified [View all]

of the power-shift in this country because of the changing demographics. They fear fair elections, because the math is not on their side. So they're now cheating and double-downing, forcing their agendas down our throats, because they don't plan on letting up on their crooked methods.

For example, we sit here knowing that it's just a matter of time to reverse Alito's weak case, but that is only going to happen if we can stop them from stealing our elections. And that's the point. Everything about what they do will be an effort to hold onto power, illegitimately.

So, assume they're all complicit in running an illegitimate process in the Court, the courts, the Congress, their churches and their governorships. Wherever you see Republicans, expect the worst.

We must never assume they have the integrity to perform any government job without supervision. So we never let up demanding an honest process, but always check their work. Do not take their word for anything. Their word means nothing. Conservative anglo-Americans are in a free-fall and they're going down in the ugliest manner.
