And the American Judicial System Be Damned!!

Has the American Judicial System always been just? Has justice always been applied equally to all Americans regardless of social, political, or financial status? Definitely not. The system may have often been impartial, but not always and the same could be said about any other country’s judicial system.

In America, however, there has often been at least an attempt to present the resemblance that everyone is equal under the law, but those days are now waning away rather fast. Just think about the House of Representatives’ Judiciary Committee, who keeps fabricating false cases against some of the Biden Administration’s functionaries, all of it as mere revenge for the criminal cases brought against Donald Trump.

Or think about Aileen Cannon, the shameless judge doing everything in her judicial power to stall the case against Donald Trump’s indictment for criminally taking with him national security documents when he left the Presidency. Or think about Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, whose wife actively advocated to illegally, unlawfully invalidate the results of the 2020 presidential elections. And these are only a few examples of a larger number of similar cases.

But things are not getting any better. Things are only getting worse, particularly because the stakes are getting much higher too. Now, there is clear evidence showing that rightwing Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito displayed an inverted Star-Spangled Banner in the front yard of his home in Alexandria, Virginia, during the days immediately following the J6 Republican insurrection.

In case you didn’t know, an upside-down American flag is a sign of distress warning that the country has been taken by hostile forces and needs to be rescued. This is a sign that has been used a few times in the history of the country, most recently during the “Stop the Steal” insurrectionist movement.

And now picture this: Samuel Alito, a Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States openly taking sides on the crucial, existential case pertaining to whether ex-Presidents of the United States have total immunity from prosecution. Just picture one or more ultra-prejudiced, rightwing anti-American-Democracy Justices deciding what the future of the American Democratic System will be and ask yourself, what kind of justice can be expected from the Supreme legal authority of the nation?

Does anybody still have any doubts as to the crucial, serious, existential threat American Democracy is under? Is anybody still as blind as not to see that the November elections could end up being the last democratic elections ever held in the United States?

Justices Alito, Thomas, Cannon and perhaps all the other rightwing Justices of the Supreme Court, already have decided that the American sociopolitical system should NOT be based on any Democratic values. They have already decided that the United States should have an autocratic, dictatorial system of government in place. And the American Judicial System be Damned!!
