I don't think I've ever posted a Lincoln Project video before.

Maybe they're coming up in my Youtube sidebar because I've been reading a lot of what Lincoln said against the Dred Scott decision, condemning the Supreme Court's dishonest ruling based on lies, the Court majority, including slave-holders,  in favor of extending slavery throughout the country.   Here's Rick Wilson about his experience talking to People in Britain about the common corruption that is trying to establish fascism there as it is succeeding in doing here - not dissimilarly to what the Taney Court tried to establish in favoring the slave-power over equality and even the federalism that is embedded in the Constitution. 

 

And here's my comment on it.  

No one, especially no one in the media will admit that the foundation of all of this fascism is originally media, then social media carried and magnified LIES.   LIES.   And ironically, it started in a Supreme Court ruling that the biggest liars among the fascists want to repeal,  the Sullivan Decision that gave the media, first the New York Times but all of it the Supreme Court invented "right to lie."    The fact is that without that and other rulings of the Courts from Warren to Roberts, especially those knocking down clean elections laws from Buckley v. Valeo to Citizens United and beyond on the basis of their always malignant interpretation of the poorly written First Amendment.  THAT IS WHERE THIS ALL BEGINS, SO IT'S NO WONDER THAT THE TWO COUNTRIES WITH THE BIGGEST MEDIA LIE OPERATIONS WOULD BE VULNERABLE.   

On top of that are many other rulings of the ever more out of control Supreme Court, those lying about and altering the meaning of the 14th and other Amendments to the Constitution (ironically enough, right-wing Supreme Court legislating from the bench, such as conservatives howled against when the Warren Court made a few modest rulings in the direction of doing that in favor of equality, etc.). 

NONE of this will go away until that artificial, supreme court invented "right to lie" is abolished,  none of it will go away unless the Marbury power the Court invented with which they do things like strike down things like the truly bi-partisan clean elections laws passed after Watergate is decisively and permanently ripped away from the nine "justices" or any simple or minority of them have used to corrupt the country.
