Thank you so much for sharing! I have restacked you and posted you to LinkedIn. I have been kicked off Facebook and Bluesky now. I have to take my dissent to other venues other than social media - also the FBI is monitoring my social media. I'm flattered because that puts me in the company of Martin Luther King and all Black Panthers who fed children breakfast and scared the white establishment.

✍️ Elbows UP! 🚢👦🗞️🧓

I’ve heard it said that justice is blind. She may be blind, but lately she's acquired a damn nose for anyone's money.

These nine justices of the federal Supreme Court interpret the Constitution like it was written by Trump, for Trump, and nobody else - but Trump.

It amazes me that our founding fathers had the foresight to anticipate the coming immaculation of a self-serving demagogue, and wrote a constitution for him. But how did they know?

These same justices also once said, “We are not politicians.” And then they promptly vote like one.

Apparently, the Vice President too now thinks the law's not about what's right or wrong - but what's in it for him.

That’s what seems to happen when someone thinks they are about to receive the Trump torch.

Vance used to compare Trump to Hitler. Now, he's okay with it. Because, Vance has a real chance at becoming a President. Nobody gave him anything like that before, and he knows nobody in a right mind will ever again.

I remember a judge named Rothaug. He was convicted at Nuremberg for sentencing innocent people under Nazi law. What was his defense? “I was just doing my job.” That’s the kind of excuse you hear coming from the Supreme Court these days.

I’ve seen a lot of things wrapped in different costumes over my years.

I often wondered - how does deciding the fate of millions warrant not having to explain oneself, just because you are dressed like a witch or wizard, and speak in riddles?

These people are like the Riverboat Gamblers of my time, who wore velvet to make themselves LOOK so stupid that their marks could be more easily taken in.

Except, these people wear BLACK robes - so that if you turned out the lights, you can't find them. As I mentioned, they follow the smell of money to leave and avoid any scrutiny. Just like a bloodhound.

This Court today reminds me of a monarchy of dogs - nine kings all in disguise. They don’t wear crowns. Yet they rule by lifetime appointment - which is close enough.

If God is watching, I hope He’s laughing. Otherwise, He’d be crying, and I wouldn’t blame Him.

Yours in judicial disbelief,

Mark Twain

They DO make a difference.

WOW! Best song ever! Thank you, Public Servant, I have shared this with everyone I know! I also recorded it on my phone to take with me on Saturday! What an absolute blessing you are to help everyone in their fight for Democracy! You are now up on my wall of heroes! Thank you!

Nancy Snow's avatar

Public Servant, I worked at the county and state level for just over 30 years. I have an idea how so many of you feel, and am so sorry and angry that you are being used as pawns and your service to "we the people" is being disparaged.

Thanks for taking the time and investing your energy in this song! I've printed the lyrics and will bring it with me this afternoon.

Let us all stay strong!

I love the song. We should be singing it every place we go. Not just at the protest. It should be blasting from car radios like the beat of a drum. It should be played from the speakers at the malls. and the intro to a movie at the movie theaters. It should be everywhere, for all to hear and learn the verses. It should be one of those songs that people can't get out of their heads, that will pop up when they least expect it.

​“In the overthrow of the plutocracy, you should know that when you kick in that final door you will not be confronted by a desperate, raging king with his sword drawn, shield at the ready, unafraid to die. Whoever you encounter on the other side of that door will already be on their knees, trembling, offering you all the money in the world (or close to it) to be spared.” —Novel excerpt from The Billionaire Condemnation Society
