Death
Rattle
We don't need immunity laws if the President is an honorble
man. That's why the Supreme Court HAD to redefine it, and
they totally fucked it up.
-------------
Long, long time ago
I can still remember when this country used to make me smile
And I knew if we voted right
We could make conservatives see the light
And maybe they'd be happy for a while.
But First of July made me shiver
With the sad news it delivered
Strange new rules for POTUS
A new imperial SCOTUS.
That's when I sat down and cried
'Cause I knew that freedom had been crucified
And something broke me deep inside
The day Democracy died.
So bye, bye to American pride
Even Maddow was in shadow of this treacherous tide
Them autocrats were drinking vodka on ice
Singin' this'll be the day that they rise.
This'll be the day that they rise.
------------------
Today the six reptiles of the Insurrectionist Party of the
Supreme Court doomed this fragile democracy to a death sentence
by shredding the safeguards against lunatic presidents like
convicted felon Donald J. Trump.
As of now there is no foreseeablescenario (but one, see
below) of which I can perceive which will prevent the wholesale
destruction
of
this country and what's left of this fragile world.
Even
if President Biden legally, legally I might add, throws
every election denier
and all
six Conservative judges into a dark hole and seals it shut
with concrete and duct tape the backlash against such a
move would result in another Conservative monster in the
White
House.
Even if every alarmed patriot rushes to the polls this November
and puts Mr. Biden back in the Oval Office, along with a
veto-proof Democratic House and Senate, it's only a matter
of time before we lose our caution and another Trump gains
the throne.
The Supreme Court has lodged a cancerous time
bomb in this nation's DNA. It has written the first chapter
of a post-apocalyptic tale that that only a madman could
enjoy.
Here's the one hopeful scenario: The American people understand
the Supreme Court has made a HUGE mistake. Even Republicans
see it. So we all rush to the polls and put that veto-proof
Democratic administration in Washington... and the first
thing President Biden does is expand the Supreme Court with
five
new judges
that rescind this dangerous immunity decision. and then
Congress introduces a Constitutional Amendment to counterdict
the decision and, if we're lucky, it will pass before a
trump-like creature gets his hands on the reins of power.
So, yeah! Let's do that one.
