Is SCOTUS a ‘MAGA’ Court?

Trump repeatedly screams fraud when there is an election outcome he doesn’t like, even in elections he wasn’t running in. And of course, without even close to decent evidence…

2016 Republican Primaries, 2016 US presidential election, 2018 US midterms, 2020 US presidential election, 2022 US midterms…

He even claims it in elections he won to claim “in reality” he won bigger!

Obama’s Top Economist Has a Warning for the Country (w/ Jason Furman) | Receipts

Trump’s: attack on the Fed’s independence, forcing respected economic experts to push a bullshit political line, and generally incompetent economic comments and policies…are bad for the rule of law, the economy, and people in general. But, one factor that will determine how bad this is, is whether, after Trump, we see further degradation of the rule of law and more bad economic policies, or whether it gets better.

Trump said Hitler ‘did some good things’ and wanted generals like the Nazis, former chief of staff Kelly claims

‘I want generals like Hitler had’ ~ Donald J Trump…according to his former chief of staff.

“”He commented more than once that, ‘You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'” Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying “nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good,” but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

In his interview with The Atlantic, Kelly recalled that when Trump raised the idea of needing “German generals,” Kelly would ask if he meant “Bismarck’s generals,” referring to Otto von Bismarck, the former chancellor of the German Reich who oversaw the unification of Germany. “Surely you can’t mean Hitler’s generals,” Kelly recalled asking Trump. To which the former president responded, “Yeah, yeah, Hitler’s generals.””

BREAKING: SCOTUS Lets Trump Move Ahead With Mail Voting Crackdown (w/ Richard Hasen & Steve Vladek)

The Supreme Court keeps seeing blatantly unlawful action by the Trump administration, and then ending injunctions and allowing it to go forward anyways while the case works its way through the process. It looks like the Supreme Court is making up doctrines in order to enable lawlessness. The Supreme Court did not act like this toward Biden.

China’s new ethnic unity law comes into effect | Inside Story

Schools in China can no longer teach primarily in an ethnic language. Mandarin must be the primary language in all schools. China is more generally cracking down on ethnic minorities in its ethnic unity law.

China is a colonial empire that has conquered its land by force, and it is stepping up its forced assimilation of its formerly conquered peoples.
