The entire thing is corrupted. It’s a transnational oligarchy

If I were feeling long term optimistic, I would envision impeachments beginning in January 2029. Roberts for ruling on issues involving companies that paid his wife. Thomas and Alito for the reasons you mentioned. And....a Democratic president signing legislation to expand the Court to at least 13 justices.

Historians will debate which of the three pillars of American government were more corrupt. SCOTUS might win the prize for lasting damage...

What should worry people is that the overturning of civil rights (so long predicted by SCOTUS watchers and announced repeatedly by the Heritage Foundation and the Federalist Society) is just getting started.

Ultimately, a combination of bad-faith decisions emanating from the bench, coupled with the ongoing movement to rewrite the Constitution, uninformed citizens, and the absence of an opposition party will leave the country immiserated.

The White Supremacists are targeting women, minorities, refugees, LGBTQ, then they'll focus on restricting religious freedoms.

I truly don't know how to wake people up when they're so determined to avoid reality and cling to hopium dished out by grifting influencers and 7-figure Democrstic strategists.
