The war between his neckgiblet &tie?
The war between his ass& diaper?
The war between his dementia &his inherent racism?
The war between sharpies& maps?
The war between the pentagon &fair, accurate reporting?
The war between greed &nepotism?
The war between the Epstein files &FOIA?
What’d I miss?

The Voting Rights Act helps prevent all-white (racist) communities in the South from controlling local elections. Many Democrat seats will be lost if the SCOTUS destroys the VRA.

'Rule' does the heavy lifting in that sentence.

It's become clear that only that cohort will be free, if they get their wish. How else do you explain the perchant for selling children as torture toys? These people do not have good intentions.

Prof. David Cay Johnston: "The six justices at the Supreme Court are white supremacists." Blacks and hispanics are the targets of the republicans, including those at the Supreme Court (yes, including justice Thomas). Rachel is right.

Republicans have spent decades carefully constructing the 6-Traitor Majority on the Supreme Court to do exactly what Maddow describes. They’re putting the last foundation stones in place for every Republican who comes after Trump.

I no longer feel the current Supreme Court is salvageable. The six Republican appointed justices have so thoroughly dishonored and disgraced what was once a highly held, trusted and respected judicial institution that it's doubtful that level of trust and honor will be restored within a generation

I'm not always brave enough to listen to Rachel Maddow. Sometimes I need my delusions to get through my day, and she just always peels them away with the scalpel or her insight and depth of knowledge. She terrifies me sometimes because she lays bare what's going on, and sometimes I'm just not ready.
