What worries me the most: This Rogue Court is so headstrong in their agenda

that I now believe that they're intentionally loosening gun carry restrictions because they are intent on shifting this country to the right. They know it's going to be a chaotic political process and it serves their purpose to keep throwing us into confusion. Because of the Ginni-Clarence connection, I don't think they are unaware of where this is going.

They are RW and this is the way they think things should be.

Any chaos created is a bonus for them.

As I explained back in 2018, gifts from family don’t have to be reported on federal judicial disclosure forms, and Kavanaugh’s family had deep pockets. He’s the only child of a “swamp creature,” Ed Kavanaugh, a longtime lobbyist for the cosmetics industry who spent his career schmoozing with Beltway insiders to fend off health and safety regulations and dueling with activists who wanted to ban cosmetic testing on animals. When the elder Kavanaugh retired in 2005, his compensation package that year from the Cosmetic, Toiletry and Fragrance Association totaled $13 million, according to the nonprofit group’s IRS filing.

Kavanaugh’s parents ensured he had a privileged upbringing—high school at Georgetown Prep in suburban Washington and an Ivy League education that seems to have left him without a whiff of student loan debt. Their largesse seems to have followed him into adulthood. As Kavanaugh explained in his written answers to Whitehouse: “We have not received financial gifts other than from our family, which are excluded from disclosure in judicial financial disclosure reports.”

they see time running out before whites become a minority and can't maintain power in anything resembling a democracy.

So rather than secure rights for minorities, to protect themselves for that eventuality, they are trying to hold on to power as long as they can.

Which of course means that when white people do eventually lose power, inevitably, it will be really ugly for white people.

But remember, they're not merely evil. They're also incredibly stupid.

I was just gonna mention that they are going to burn it all down instead. They believe they “made” it all, and they can’t leave it to a new free thinking generation.

Like our American path was hijacked, and I was no longer living the life that I was expecting to find. There would have been less fear in the streets, and more diverse individuals to connect with.

That never happened.

some movement toward expansion of involuntary servitude beyond prison labor. Of course it won't be called slavery. I sort of expected it when Flabby McGrabby was defiling the WH considering his record of not paying employees; no doubt he would absolutely love to legally own some slaves he could lord over and not pay. In 2011 Michele Bachmann suggested doing away with the minimum wage and that was later echoed by at least one other RW lunatic. This Rogue Court of Short-Term Profits Über Alles just might do it.

MAGA like 1860!!!!

Forcing a woman to endure childbearing against her will is nothing less than involuntary servitude.
