THE NEWS SAYING that Renee Good was still alive, breathing with an irregular pulse, by the time that the ambulance arrived, dying later proves one thing, the ICE killers at the scene who kept a doctor from treating her wanted her to die. Just as the entire group of robbers is responsible for a murder committed by one of them during the robbery, all of the ICE and/or other federal goons on the scene are her murderers. As are those who sent them there and allowed them to be there.
I see no judge or, especially, "justice" on the criminal Roberts Court who did anything to prevent the many crimes of the ICEstapo, the other federal goons who have been attacking American cities and other localities. I see no evidence that they or the joke of a Constitution are doing a single thing to stop Trump and the rest of his criminal gang for a reign of criminal terror that makes Al Capone's crime spree in prohibition era Chicago look like civil order.
What they did to Renee Good and Keith Porter are crimes that Trump's reportedly insurrectionist and white-boy gang member riddled terror police will almost certainly go unpunished, any state or local investigations into those crimes are already being hampered by the federal government, the federal government are going to put the victims and their survivors on trial.
This is what the Roberts Court's six Republican members have given us, this is what Mitch McConnell and his fellow Republicans who voted not to convict Trump of both the proven crimes he committed in shaking down a foreign leader in his attempt to get him to lie about Trump's rival and, most seriously, for calling and fomenting the January 6 insurrection when he tried to overturn the Constitution have done to the United States. They weren't alone. The corporate media from the cabloid swill to the networks to the Sulzberger shit rag brought back Trump so their owners and highly paid on-air talking heads could get more tax breaks. The billionaires who planned on raiding and sacking the national treasury, and most obviously such criminal organizations as the Heritage Foundation all played a major role in this war against the American People. I see no reason to not suspect that if a Democratic Congress and president are elected that they would not, ANY OF THEM, do any better.
This is the American People pitted against the American billioniare-millionaire class and their servants on the one hand and the seemingly permanent third of the country who, largely on the basis of their white supremacy, hate equality, democracy and, as that kind ultimately always end up, hate a republic instead of a strongman despot. Our Constitutional system, set up by wealthy financiers and slave-holders, is rigged to give them the upper hand a significant majority of the times, our national mythology ignores those majority of times and pretends that the best of our history, the various civil rights movements, the Northern side of the Civil War have effectively countered the white supremacists and oligarchs when our history actually proves that the Constitution means THEY WILL ALWAYS WIN IN THE END UNDER IT.
I believe the majority of Americans - when counted by individuals and not by the fiction of blocking them into Electoral College style "states" - are People of good will. I believe that maybe as many as a third are consistently so and that another third may be most of but not consistently. The Constitution as designed by the aristocrats who made up the form of government guaranteed that the worst third of our population would always get the upper hand and so that has happened. Too many of the rest of us have been gulled by the hagiographic history constructed of lies, the popular patriotic clap-trap of Hollywood and pop-history writers, popular bio hagiographers, semi-idiot Broadway toonsters, dancers and scribblers, etc. to not see what even our lived experience of America shows us clearly.
Those who are expecting the Constitutional order to save us need to be forced to face the fact THAT THIS IS THE GODDAMNED CONSTITUTIONAL ORDER. You don't see any stopping Trump by the Congress. You certainly don't and won't see him stopped of his goons punished by the Roberts Court - which is the worst Supreme Court in American history - and the entire history of that court gives them stiff competition for that title. And under our idiot system they get to say what the goddamned Constitution IS at the time when they are in the majority on that court.
It's not protecting us, it's not protecting our rights, it's not protecting our freedom. It's not protecting us from ICE goons who attack, injure, terrorize, kidnap, disappear without charge or trial AND MURDER US. An the goddamned lawyers are saying that they can effectively keep her murderer Jonathan Ross from ever standing trial by merely fiddling with the physical evidence. If the law is an ass, it's one because the lawyers, judges and justices want it to be one.
I doubt we're going to get out of this under the goddamned Constitution, if we manage that miracle BUT DON'T CHANGE THE GODDAMNED THING THE FASCISTS WILL REGROUP WITH THE BILLIONAIRE-MILLIONAIRE MONEY BEHIND THEM AND DO IT MORE EFFECTIVELY THE NEXT TIME.
