Terrific move my VP Harris…

Kamala Harris’ pres­i­den­tial cam­paign is bring­ing on a new ech­e­lon of senior advis­ers, most promi­nent­ly David Plouffe, the for­mer top polit­i­cal advis­er to Barack Obama. The per­son­nel move fol­lows weeks of spec­u­la­tion — and lob­by­ing from some Harris allies — to inject a fresh set of eyes into the cam­paign appa­ra­tus she inher­it­ed from President Joe Biden after he dropped his reelec­tion bid last month Plouffe was Obama’s 2008 cam­paign man­ag­er and in 2012 served a sim­i­lar role in Obama’s reelec­tion from his perch as a White House senior adviser.

Donald Trump, like any oth­er cheap con­fi­dence hus­tler, knows all too well the pow­er Religion has over vul­ner­a­ble and gullible peo­ple. It is no sur­prise that after a life­time of being a Democrat and sup­port­ing Democratic can­di­dates he switched par­ty and decid­ed to run as a Republican.
Before he ran he said if he ever decid­ed to run he would run as a Republican because they are stu­pid. He also knew that many of them claimed to be Christians while being fun­da­men­tal­ly racist and xeno­pho­bic, in oth­er words they were exact­ly like him.
Former President Barack Obama in a pri­vate set­ting before he was elect­ed, in a rae slip-up said, Republicans cling to guns and Bibles, a tes­ta­ment that he under­stood the cult like ded­i­ca­tion those vot­ers had to reli­gion and whiteness.

All across the world, cheap hus­tlers use reli­gion as a tool to threat­en hell fire to gullible peo­ple who open up their wal­lets to them, leav­ing them­selves with­out. In the mean­time they fly in style in elober­ate gulf­stream jets, live in lav­ish man­sions and pay no taxes.
It is no sur­prise that every con­fi­dence hus­tler wants to wear a col­lar so they may blud­geon the gullible with threats of hell fire and clean out their wal­lets and pocketbooks.
Though not reli­gious Donald Trump is at least smart enough as anoth­er kind of con artiste how to exploit the gulli­bil­i­ty of the wet mind­ed. Right after order­ing General Mark Milley to shoot down peace­ful pro­test­ers in DC and was rebuffed by the General, he had his police goon-squad beat and tear­gas those pro­tes­tors so they could clear space to could stand in front of a church with a Bible held upside down as a prop.

Despite this most Anti-Christ-like action from this most despi­ca­ble con ‑artiste, tens of mil­lions of racist so-called Christians flock to this imbe­cel­lic clown as if he is the sec­ond com­ing of the Messiah.
There was nev­er any rea­son to doubt that those peo­ple would flock to a char­la­tan like Donald John Trump, their par­ents and grand­par­ents would lit­er­al­ly leave church ser­vices and attend­ing the lynch­ing of Black Americans.

The dis­s­a­point­ment today comes from some of the Black religous hus­tlers who are too dumb to rec­og­nize that reli­gion is noth­ing more than a tool of phy­cho­log­i­cal and men­tal con­trol. The fear of God and hell­fire keeps purs­es and pock­et­books open and adher­ents con­trolled and sup­pli­cant. I expect­ed white Christians to fol­low the pied ‑piper but the black ones does alarm me,- then I recall that there were Black cool-aid drinkers with Jim Jones in the South American Jungles too. So it should come as no sur­prise that the great con artiste on Friday told a bunch of ador­ing racist reli­gious zealots dur­ing an event in Florida, “You won’t have to vote in future, we’ll have it fixed.” 
He encour­aged them to vote but assured them that if he is elect­ed they won’t have to vote anymore.
And they cheered!!!”
Christians get out and vote. Just this time,” he urged. “You won’t have to do it any­more. Four more years. You know what? It’ll be fixed. It’ll be fine. You won’t have to vote any­more my beau­ti­ful Christians.”
And the Sheep cheered some more!!!

In this riv­et­ing polit­i­cal analy­sis, explore the per­plex­ing real­i­ty that felons can’t vote but can run for President of the United States. The sad irony is glar­ing, reflect­ing deep-root­ed sys­temic issues with­in the American legal and polit­i­cal frame­work. This video delves into the nuances of the U.S. Constitution, its sparse cri­te­ria for pres­i­den­tial can­di­dates, and the con­trast­ing dis­en­fran­chise­ment of ordi­nary cit­i­zens con­vict­ed of felonies. The war being waged here isn’t just legal but moral and social, ques­tion­ing the very fab­ric of jus­tice and equal­i­ty in America. Through his­tor­i­cal ref­er­ences and present-day par­al­lels, this dis­cus­sion seeks to uncov­er how these laws are solid­i­fy­ing white suprema­cy and mar­gin­al­iz­ing the African-American com­mu­ni­ty. The notion of inte­gra­tion into a burn­ing house, as Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once feared, is exam­ined, high­light­ing the ongo­ing strug­gles for civ­il rights and true jus­tice. The video empha­sizes the impor­tance of self-reliance and eco­nom­ic future for the African-American com­mu­ni­ty, urg­ing view­ers to con­sid­er the broad­er impli­ca­tions of these legal dis­crep­an­cies.

In this com­pelling polit­i­cal analy­sis, the video delves into the recent com­ments made by Donald Trump, exam­in­ing the impact on the African-American com­mu­ni­ty. The dis­cus­sion high­lights Trump’s attempts to solid­i­fy white suprema­cy and the sad irony behind his state­ments. The war being waged against black Americans is dis­sect­ed through the lens of his­tor­i­cal and cur­rent events, reveal­ing a cold war of ide­olo­gies and inte­gra­tion into a burn­ing house. With a focus on self-reliance and the eco­nom­ic future of black Americans, the video under­scores the role of black women in hold­ing Trump accountable.

CHAPTERS:
00:00 — Donald Trump’s “Black Jobs

So much has hap­pened over the last few weeks that it keeps one’s head swivel­ing on the neck like a bob­ble-head­ed doll. Biden was at Camp David prep­ping for a debate against the for­mer pres­i­dent Donald Trump, who served as the 45^th pres­i­dent of the United States. Biden then stunk up the dis­cus­sion, prompt­ing calls to drop out of the race and give some­one else a chance to con­front Donald Trump. Then Trump just con­ve­nient­ly sur­vived what they are call­ing an assas­si­na­tion attempt, emerg­ing with fist-pump­ing, blood streak­ing across his face, whol­ly exposed while held up by secret ser­vice agents.
Donald Trump would raise his head to pump his fist before enter­ing an SUV. I would have thought that the Secret Service would not have allowed him to expose him­self to an exis­ten­tial threat looming.
The media is now in full Trump-wor­ship mode, includ­ing left-wing media, as if it was­n’t Donald J Trump who called for vio­lence against peo­ple who even dared to crit­i­cize him.
Added to the mix is the white nation­al­ist con­ven­tion in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, that will crown Trump King, Trump choos­ing Ohio junior US Senator JD Vance as his ‘Hand,’ hav­ing the likes of Marco Rubio cry­ing in his milk. 

Donald Trump was impeached twice even though the Republican Senate con­trolled by Mitch McConnell refused to con­vict and toss him from the psy­che of America and back to real­i­ty Television.
Trump refused to leave office after he lost and, in the process, con­coct­ed an elab­o­rate scheme that includ­ed plans to have the mil­i­tary con­fis­cate bal­lot box­es com­ing from pre­dom­i­nant­ly Black neigh­bor­hoods, pre­sent­ing false slates of elec­tors to cer­ti­fy the vote for him­self, have Mike Pence refuse to approve the elec­tions, (a pure­ly cer­e­mo­ni­al process, as the Vice President has no Constitutional author­i­ty to decer­ti­fy a pres­i­den­tial election.
Trump also filed motions across the nation alleg­ing fraud, which judges debunked, even those he appoint­ed. When all failed, Donald Trump riled up a mob of cave dwellers, point­ed them at the Capitol on January 6^th, 2021, and told them to fight, or else they would not have a coun­try any­more. We all know the result; it is a day that will live in infamy.

Donald Trump has paid no price for his crimes. As I am writ­ing this arti­cle, Democratic US Senator from New Jersey Robert Menendez was con­vict­ed by the sys­tem on cor­rup­tion charges. Despite hav­ing been adjudged a rapist in New York State Court and hav­ing been con­vict­ed on 34 felony counts of elec­tion inter­fer­ence as well, no ver­dict has been issued against him.
He is like a Duck with water sim­ply run­ning off his back. In any oth­er coun­try, a polit­i­cal leader who insti­gat­ed a vio­lent insur­rec­tion against his own coun­try would have already faced the jus­tice sys­tem for his crimes and would be cool­ing his heels in prison or worse. In America, hav­ing com­mit­ted those crimes, Donald Trump has yet to stand up in a court of law to answer for those crimes.
Why has Trump not faced jus­tice? In less than three years as pres­i­dent, Donald Trump was able to poi­son the judi­cia­ry at every lev­el, result­ing in an inex­pe­ri­enced syco­phant, Aileen Cannon, act­ing as a fed­er­al judge, throw­ing out the fed­er­al doc­u­ments cas­es against Trump. This was a shock­ing dis­play by the neo­phyte judge, who has been twice reversed on rul­ings by the appel­late cir­cuit in the same case.
But it’s not just the Colombian- Carmalita who has sold out to the con­vict­ed felon, now par­ty leader; the Supreme Court all but changed the rules to try and ensure that Donald Trump nev­er faces jus­tice. According to the right-wing rad­i­cals on the court, a pres­i­dent can now com­mit any crime he wants with­out even being ques­tioned about it.
The sad irony is that the judi­cial branch of gov­ern­ment, the insti­tu­tion charged with pro­tect­ing the demo­c­ra­t­ic exper­i­ment, has attacked the very foun­da­tion of that democ­ra­cy with a sledgehammer.
The war being waged in America between the Democrats is not a war for polit­i­cal pow­er. The par­ty that was once the Republican Party is now a white pow­er par­ty that is unable to win at the bal­lot box and has tak­en the deci­sion to end the American sys­tem as we know it to gain and keep white con­trol. The ado­ra­tion for Donald Trump through white America is based total­ly on this and noth­ing else.
Their refusal to accept Joe Biden as the legit­i­mate­ly elect­ed pres­i­dent of the United States harkens back to a time in American History that cul­mi­nat­ed in a Civil War.

Jefferson Davis was the first and only pres­i­dent of the Confederacy. He served in that capac­i­ty from 1861 to 1865. The rea­son Jefferson Davis was the Confederacy’s only pres­i­dent was that the Confederacy, a trea­so­nous insur­gency, did not sur­vive; it was defeat­ed when the South lost the Civil War. Davis was a cot­ton planter in Mississippi who owned as many as 113 Black peo­ple as slaves.
During the Civil War, Davis served as com­man­der in chief of the Confederate armies. The Confederacy was defeat­ed in 1865, and Davis was cap­tured, he was accused of trea­son, and imprisoned.
Jefferson Davis was released with­out tri­al after two years. Davis was often blamed for the Confederacy’s defeat, but after his release from prison, he became a hero of the Confederacy.
Jefferson Davis’ lega­cy as Confederate leader is still cel­e­brat­ed in the South, how­ev­er, he is fre­quent­ly crit­i­cized as a sup­port­er of slav­ery and racism, and many of the memo­ri­als ded­i­cat­ed to him through­out the United States have been removed.
The United States is at a crit­i­cal junc­ture today in many ways, as before the Civil War in 1861.

The South, heav­i­ly invest­ed in the con­tin­u­a­tion of slav­ery, threat­ened to secede from the Union if the new­ly formed Republican Party tried to end the prac­tice. The Republican Party at the time was less favor­able to the prac­tice of slav­ery. On November 6, 1860, vot­ers in the United States went to the polls in an elec­tion that end­ed with Abraham Lincoln as President. The elec­tion of Abraham Lincoln would even­tu­al­ly lead to the Civil War. Lincoln’s vic­to­ry didn’t hap­pen on that day, and his vic­to­ry wasn’t set­tled for months. It was expect­ed that at least sev­en states would take steps to leave the Union if and when Lincoln was elect­ed well before he was inau­gu­rat­ed as President in March 1861.
When Lincoln and his peo­ple final­ly received the news via tele­graph from New York that he had won the elec­tion, Lincoln report­ed­ly walked home and broke the news to his wife, then went to bed. Lincoln was bur­dened by the very present dan­ger of seces­sion that could hap­pen with the news of his acces­sion to the presidency.
Lincoln wor­ried that the Democrats may unite around a sin­gle can­di­date. He wor­ried that his par­ty, the Republican Party, may replace him with an alter­na­tive can­di­date, or worse, that the south­ern states boy­cotted the Electoral College.
Much of Abraham Lincoln’s fears were real­ized; nev­er­the­less, the south­ern states did take part in the Electoral College process, and Lincoln’s elec­tion was cer­ti­fied in Congress in February 1861. But there was a more fab­u­lous than reg­u­lar mil­i­tary pres­ence on Capitol Hill. 
By the time Lincoln became President in March 1861, replac­ing the feck­less James Buchanan, sev­en south­ern states had left the Union — all before Lincoln’s elec­tion was cer­ti­fied in Congress on February 15, 1861.

Joe Biden faces the same head­winds today that Abraham Lincoln faced in 1860 – 1861 and beyond. The Republican Party is not unmind­ful of the events of the ear­ly 1860s. Despite the Civil War’s resul­tant car­nage, the Republican par­ty is walk­ing America right back to the brink as the Democrats did in 1861.
Kevin Roberts, the pres­i­dent of the Heritage Foundation, the group that pop­u­lat­ed the Supreme Court with right-wing reac­tionar­ies and the leader of Trump’s 2025 Manifesto, recent­ly declared, ‘The coun­try is in the midst of a “sec­ond American Revolution” that will be blood­less “if the left allows it to be.”
The nation is in the throes of a cold war, and the Democrats are fast asleep. The align­ment of wealthy cor­po­ra­tions and poor whites who nev­er quite fig­ured out how to cash in their white priv­i­lege is all about one thing and one thing only; it is about solid­i­fy­ing white suprema­cy in the face of the brown­ing of America.

In this video, Mike takes a deep dive into the his­to­ry of black men sup­port­ing Trump, reveal­ing the com­plex­i­ties and ironies involved. He starts by recount­ing a piv­otal moment in recent his­to­ry: when Jim Comey announced an inves­ti­ga­tion into Secretary Hillary Clinton, lead­ing to a cas­cade of events that ulti­mate­ly result­ed in Donald Trump’s elec­tion. Mike points out that the Republicans’ choice to nom­i­nate a 34-count indict­ed felon for pres­i­dent sets a dan­ger­ous prece­dent, espe­cial­ly con­sid­er­ing the pro­found impact of the Criminal Justice System on black men in the United States. 

The irony is stark: while many black men who have felonies are dis­en­fran­chised, the Republican nom­i­nee retains his right to vote. Mike responds to the action tak­en by black men who open­ly sup­port Trump, con­trast­ing it with the lack of sup­port from black women. He argues that edu­ca­tion in American his­to­ry is invalu­able, espe­cial­ly for those wear­ing MAGA caps with­out under­stand­ing the deep­er his­tor­i­cal and social impli­ca­tions.

In this video titled “Trump’s Return: A Threat Worse Than You Think,” Mike points out the grave con­cerns sur­round­ing Donald Trump’s poten­tial return to pow­er. Analyzing President Joe Biden’s per­for­mance and the Democratic par­ty’s strate­gic dilem­mas, Mike dives deep into the press­ing issues fac­ing America today. He responds to the actions tak­en by the Supreme Court, high­light­ing how Trump’s influ­ence has set a dan­ger­ous prece­dent, risk­ing the nation’s demo­c­ra­t­ic fabric.

Mike’s polit­i­cal analy­sis delves into Biden’s achieve­ments and con­tro­ver­sies, includ­ing his stance on for­eign pol­i­cy and patri­o­tism. The dis­cus­sion under­scores the crit­i­cal need for uni­ty with­in the Democratic and inde­pen­dent vot­er bases to avoid a repeat of Trump’s pres­i­den­cy. With ref­er­ences to recent polit­i­cal shifts in Britain and France, Mike empha­sizes the impor­tance of col­lec­tive action in safe­guard­ing democracy.

President Joe Biden’s flubs, inco­her­ence, and loss of his thoughts mid-sen­tence dur­ing the debates against Donald Trump are legit­i­mate things that the Democratic Party should be talk­ing about. The Democratic Party is not a cult like the Republican Party that bows in fear to the dic­tates of its dear leader. Many argue that talk­ing about Biden’s débâ­cle of a debate weak­ens their can­di­date; this is absolute hog­wash. Burying one’s head in the sand and pre­tend­ing that the issue before us will dis­ap­pear is not a good strategy.
They argue that talk­ing about Biden empow­ers Trump. Realistically, every­one talk­ing about Joe Biden wants to defeat Donald Trump in November. They say there is no room for error and want to ensure they put up the best can­di­date to defeat Trump. Those vot­ers will sup­port Joe Biden; they want the best shot at doing so.

Having seen the whole debate, your hum­ble ser­vant has been among those who called for the President to step aside. Biden’s friends talk about his suc­cess­es; no ratio­nal per­son can deny them, but not every­one is hap­py with some oth­er things. For exam­ple, Biden’s full-throat­ed sup­port of the Zionist Criminal who leads the Apartheid state of Israel’s war crimes against the Palestinian people. 
They also dis­cuss Biden’s patri­o­tism for his coun­try. The most patri­ot­ic thing any­one can do is put their ego and self aside and put their coun­try before them­selves. Biden has been a suc­cess­ful pres­i­dent by every met­ric in this first term.
He could have walked away and been seen as a hero by allow­ing some­one younger and more dynam­ic to take the lead. Kamala Harris is up to the task. Having said the fore­gone, if the President decides to stay, the par­ty needs to coa­lesce around him in the face of the exis­ten­tial threat Donald Trump, the Republican Party, and the Supreme Court pos­es, not just to our freedoms but our very lives.
I sat in on a casu­al dis­cus­sion over the week­end with some peo­ple I con­sid­er pret­ty intel­li­gent: Black peo­ple. I was stunned at the lack of recog­ni­tion of the threat the nation faces if Donald Trump were ever to return to the pres­i­den­cy and the seri­ous threat he pos­es to Black peo­ple’s exis­tence in America.
Donald Trump would be a lot more pow­er­ful if he returned to pow­er. He has at his dis­pos­al a cor­rupt Supreme Court he fash­ioned in his image, hav­ing been allowed to place three mem­bers on the nine-mem­ber Court, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett, in addi­tion to the cor­rupt Thomas Alito and the acqui­es­cent Roberts.
Trump’s acolytes have pre­pared a Fascist doc­u­ment, Project 2025, a blue­print for auto­crat­ic rule; the Supreme Court in Trump V US gave Donald Trump a free hand to exter­mi­nate his oppo­nents with­out consequence.
Please read the doc­u­ment; we are not being shrill or hyperbolic.

Joe Biden is still the President of the United States, yet we have seen the pow­er of a court fash­ioned in the image of a Fascist dic­ta­tor. The Court has sin­gle-hand­ed­ly struck down set­tled laws. Every court mem­ber told the Senate they would respect (stare deci­sis, let­ting the prece­dent stand). The six right-wing reac­tionar­ies on the Court all lied as they engaged in dis­man­tling what Steve Bannon calls the Administrative State. John Roberts alone has shown him­self to be a patho­log­i­cal liar.
As Chief Justice, Roberts has presided over 21 prece­dent-over­turn­ing cas­es and vot­ed to over­turn prece­dent in 17 (81%).
The Court dis­man­tled the 1965 Voting Rights Act using the laugh­able log­ic that there was no longer a need to pro­tect Black vot­ers because there was no longer any­one stop­ping them from vot­ing. That ver­dict prompt­ed a bar­rage of vot­er sup­pres­sion laws across the South and oth­er parts of the country.
The Court struck down Roe V Wade in its Dobbs deci­sion. Roe has been the law of the land for forty-nine years. The Red States imme­di­ate­ly began pass­ing laws lim­it­ing and crim­i­nal­iz­ing abor­tions. They are com­ing for con­tra­cep­tion soon. Clarence Thomas all but told them to do it, and the high­est Court will decide in their favor.
In Loper Bright Enterprises v. Raimondo, she over­turned Chevron USA v. National Resources Defense Council² and the fed­er­al judi­cia­ry’s forty-year-old prac­tice of defer­ring to agen­cies’ rea­son­able inter­pre­ta­tions of ambigu­ous fed­er­al laws. In a 6 – 3 deci­sion, Chief Justice Roberts wrote that the judi­cia­ry has the sole pre­rog­a­tive to “say what the law is.
Roberts and his cronies on the Court arro­gat­ed to them­selves the pow­er to decide over qual­i­fied sci­en­tists and experts on crit­i­cal issues of life and death. Agencies like the FDA, CDC, OSHA, EPA, and oth­ers are far weak­er today because the lawyers in the high­est Court know more than the sci­en­tists in these agencies.
Even more fright­en­ing is the deci­sion of Trump ver­sus the US, the Roberts court hold­ing: Under our con­sti­tu­tion­al struc­ture of sep­a­rat­ed pow­ers, the nature of Presidential pow­er enti­tles a for­mer President to absolute immu­ni­ty from crim­i­nal pros­e­cu­tion for actions with­in his con­clu­sive and pre­clude — sive con­sti­tu­tion­al authority.
This means that Trump can now shoot any­one on 5^th Avenue, and he can­not be prosecuted.
Trump’s peo­ple say this is a sec­ond Revolution that will be blood­less if those who dis­agree with them bow down to the MAGA agenda.
It is fright­en­ing to the tenth degree that we could be dither­ing about what we do not like about Joe Biden and Kamala Harris at this time.
Voters in France under­stood what was at stake, and so they band­ed togeth­er, put their dif­fer­ences aside, and ensured that the Fascist right wing did not take pow­er in their country.
Voters in Britain turned their backs on the Conservative Right and returned Labor to pow­er for the first time in four­teen years.
In America, a sin­gle-term, twice-impeached, pussy-grab­bing, thir­ty-four-count con­vict­ed felon is lead­ing in the polls.
Democratic and Independent vot­ers do not have the lux­u­ry of cut­ting off their noses to spite their faces.

In this video, Mike expos­es the Supreme Court’s dan­ger­ous pow­er grab and its poten­tial impli­ca­tions for democ­ra­cy. If the pres­i­den­t’s actions are deemed legal by an out-of-con­trol Supreme Court, what stops President Biden from declar­ing no more elec­tions? Mike points out that this sets a dan­ger­ous prece­dent, turn­ing the pres­i­den­cy into a de fac­to monar­chy. He responds to the action tak­en by the Supreme Court, sug­gest­ing that President Biden could use this unchecked pow­er to declare him­self pres­i­dent for life. This sce­nario, while out­ra­geous, high­lights the Supreme Court’s alarm­ing stance on pres­i­den­tial immunity.

In this crit­i­cal polit­i­cal analy­sis, Mike delves into the alarm­ing impli­ca­tions of the recent Supreme Court rul­ing under the Roberts Court, describ­ing it as a “five-alarm fire for democ­ra­cy.” This deci­sion on pres­i­den­tial immu­ni­ty, involv­ing for­mer pres­i­dent Donald Trump, sets a dan­ger­ous prece­dent that could fun­da­men­tal­ly alter the United States’ demo­c­ra­t­ic prin­ci­ples. Mike points out how the court’s decree poten­tial­ly grants sit­ting pres­i­dents unprece­dent­ed pow­er, effec­tive­ly cre­at­ing an impe­r­i­al pres­i­den­cy. Drawing on his­tor­i­cal con­text from the American Revolutionary War and ref­er­enc­ing the Federalist Papers, Mike responds to the action tak­en by the Supreme Court, high­light­ing the grav­i­ty of Justice Sotomayor and Justice Jackson’s dissents.

This rul­ing, accord­ing to Mike, erodes account­abil­i­ty and restraint, pos­ing a sig­nif­i­cant threat to the repub­lic’s integri­ty.

The Dread Scott Decision: America’s Darkest Hour is an in-depth polit­i­cal analy­sis by Mike dis­cussing the most con­tro­ver­sial Supreme Court deci­sions in US his­to­ry. Mike points out how the Supreme Court, orig­i­nal­ly intend­ed as the final arbiter of jus­tice for all Americans, has some­times set a dan­ger­ous prece­dent with its rul­ings. Starting with the infa­mous Dread Scott v. 

Sanford deci­sion, which denied African-Americans cit­i­zen­ship, Mike delves into how this rul­ing and oth­ers like Plessy v. Ferguson and Korematsu v. United States have shaped America’s dark­est hours. He responds to the action tak­en by the Court over time, high­light­ing the impor­tance of the 13^th and 14^th Amendments in over­turn­ing such deci­sions. Through a seri­ous and ana­lyt­i­cal lens, Mike empha­sizes the need for a fair and just Supreme Court.

In this video, I ana­lyzed the Supreme Court’s rever­sal of Roe v. Wade and its impact on fun­da­men­tal rights, set­ting a dan­ger­ous prece­dent for states’ rights. If this trend con­tin­ues, I point­ed out that this deci­sion under­mines con­sti­tu­tion­al and god-giv­en rights, paint­ing a bleak pic­ture of the future.
The actions tak­en by the court high­lights the his­tor­i­cal mis­use of states’ rights to main­tain oppres­sive sys­tems, from slav­ery to sub­ju­gat­ing women.

This analy­sis delves into the impli­ca­tions for American soci­ety, com­par­ing the cur­rent cli­mate to a regres­sive past.
This per­spec­tive is clear: the Supreme Court’s role should be to expand, not restrict, the peo­ple’s rights.
A wom­an’s right to choose must not be sub­ject­ed to any court’s decision.
There are some who har­bor a false nos­tal­gia for times past, a time they char­ac­ter­ize as a ‘god-fear­ing America.’ Might I remind them of the bru­tal real­i­ties of that era?
A whole race of peo­ple, Blacks, were enslaved; the bar­barism met­ed out to them is not only uncon­scionable but is some­times unmen­tion­able. Pregnant women had their babies cut from their bel­lies and fed to Alligators, severe beat­ings, brand­ing, rapes, and sodomy, the full extent of which we are still try­ing to under­stand. We are try­ing yet to under­stand because it is incom­pre­hen­si­ble to imag­ine that humans could com­mit such atroc­i­ties upon oth­er human beings. It is, there­fore, rea­son­able to con­clude that the aggres­sors are not human or, at the very best, are sub­hu­man. On that basis, most of us would rather pass on that America.

This kind of polit­i­cal maneu­ver­ing risks drag­ging the nation back into the dark ages, with severe con­se­quences for free­dom and human rights. Please share your thoughts below, hit the sub­scribe but­ton for more analy­sis, and don’t for­get to like this video to sup­port our discussions.

Is the Supreme Court still legit­i­mate? In this thought-pro­vok­ing video, Mike points out the crit­i­cal issues sur­round­ing the legit­i­ma­cy of the cur­rent Supreme Court. He delves into how the Court’s pow­er, derived from the peo­ple’s belief in its fair­ness, is now under scrutiny. 
Mike ques­tions whether the recent actions of the Supreme Court, influ­enced by polit­i­cal con­sid­er­a­tions, set a dan­ger­ous prece­dent. He responds to the actions tak­en that have stripped away near­ly 50 years of rights from Americans, high­light­ing instances of alleged cor­rup­tion and bias among justices. 
Mike fur­ther dis­cuss­es the impli­ca­tions of a Supreme Court Justice receiv­ing over $4 mil­lion from wealthy bene­fac­tors and the con­tro­ver­sial dis­play of a white Christian nation­al­ist flag at a jus­tice’s property. 
He ques­tions the integri­ty of a court that, while favor­ing per­son­al ties, under­mines the rights of mil­lions. In this detailed polit­i­cal analy­sis, Mike pro­vides a com­pelling argu­ment on the court’s cur­rent state and its impact on the American public. 

Imagine a coun­try that is sup­posed to be the old­est democracy[sic]; in that coun­try, the high­est court is the Supreme Court. Merriam-Webster defines SUPREME this way: high­est in rank or author­i­ty, espe­cial­ly in a posi­tion of unques­tioned author­i­ty, dom­i­nance, or influ­ence). So, there is no won­der that the right-wing MAGA plants on that court believe the law does not apply to them; they accept mil­lions in lux­u­ry gifts and fly insur­rec­tion­ist flags at their prop­er­ty with­out a care that they should be ques­tioned, take away the con­sti­tu­tion­al and fun­da­men­tal rights of tens of mil­lions of cit­i­zens at their whim and decree.
The chief of those supreme crea­tures even refus­es to meet with US Senators to dis­cuss the burn­ing ethics ques­tions; he claims that in the inter­est of sep­a­ra­tion of pow­ers, the court should not have to answer Congress because it is a co-equal branch of gov­ern­ment. (Hahaha) They were actu­al­ly placed in posi­tions of pow­er by the same US Senators.

The sto­ry goes that George Washington, a slave­hold­er, hero of the War of Independence, and the Republic’s first pres­i­dent, had to push hard against being made King. The sad irony is that the set­tlers who arrived in America and even­tu­al­ly warred against Britain and King George’s tyran­ny and even­tu­al­ly won, result­ing in the repub­lic’s cre­ation, were fight­ing against the idea of a monarch rul­ing over them.
One would think that those sup­posed bril­liant supe­ri­or beings, [sic] hav­ing just defeat­ed the British Monarchy, would not want to cre­ate a monar­chy in the new nation they had just estab­lished. Conventional wis­dom would mil­i­tate against that, and ulti­mate­ly it did.
But did it?
If five indi­vid­u­als on the [Supreme Court] can reverse the rights enjoyed by peo­ple for 49 years, see Roe v Wade. And if they can destroy the val­i­da­tion of basic rights once denied to a seg­ment of the pop­u­la­tion for an even longer peri­od. And if no one has the author­i­ty even to ques­tion them, how is that nation a democ­ra­cy? How is that coun­try, not a monarchy?

So for those peo­ple pay­ing atten­tion, when Donald Trump asked the court to rule that he has the supreme right to break the laws, includ­ing killing his polit­i­cal oppo­nents, and the court takes the case, which it is not oblig­at­ed to do, and when it fails to make a sim­ple rul­ing of, ‘hell fuck­ing no, you are not allowed to break the laws with­out con­se­quence,’ you are con­strained by the laws like every­one else, that court has lost all legit­i­ma­cy. The Supreme Court knows that the longer it takes to say no, you are not allowed to com­mit felonies with­out con­se­quence, the clos­er it gets to the pres­i­den­tial elec­tions hop­ing that Trump wins. The Federal crim­i­nal charges against him go away because Trump would make them disappear.
In delay­ing a deci­sion, the court has placed its fin­gers on the scale in favor of Donald Trump, much like the unqual­i­fied fed­er­al judge Eileen Cannon in Florida, who has used her posi­tion as a fed­er­al judge as a free law firm for Donald Trump. Even if the deci­sion is what it must be, you do not have the right to break the laws; the delay has already been a win for Donald Trump’s strat­e­gy of run­ning out the clock, hop­ing he will be elect­ed president.

The Supreme Court as an insti­tu­tion is so bad­ly dam­aged that it is impos­si­ble to see how this court can be viewed with any legit­i­ma­cy going forward.
In 2016, the Republican Party real­ized its decades-long goal of putting an amoral, immoral, emp­ty suit into the White House.
It had been a dream of the par­ty guid­ed by the burn­ing need to pro­tect white suprema­cy in America. With stag­nant white birthrates and con­tin­ued migra­tion of peo­ple of col­or into the coun­try, the par­ty embarked on a scorched earth pol­i­cy to pro­tect con­trol using every tool at its dis­pos­al, even if it meant ditch­ing the gov­ern­ing prin­ci­ple of democ­ra­cy it feigned cham­pi­oning decades ago.
Reversing the Dobbs deci­sion and demo­niz­ing immi­grants at the state and fed­er­al lev­els has been a bi-fold strat­e­gy to lim­it the brown­ing and increase the whitening.
If those goals can­not be attained with the alacrity and def­i­n­i­tion they desire, then they are will­ing to resort to turn­ing the coun­try into an auto­crat­ic state gov­erned by a mind­less, deranged autocrat.
