Andrew Jackson, the presidential model of the Musk/Trump regime, defied the Supreme Court by refusing to enforce its decision in the case of "Worcester v. Georgia." This bit of history includes the famous statement by Jackson regarding the Supreme Court Chief Justice: "John Marshall has made his decision, now let him enforce it."
Similarly, Joseph Stalin dismissed the power of religion when he asked,
“How many divisions does the Pope have?”
We have assumed that an heroic stand by a few brave attorneys,
and the adherence to the Rule of Law by the lower courts, may be the only
effective protection has against the onslaught being waged against America.
It is a vaguely comforting thought.
Until …
Until we consider that we may be erroneously assuming that Elon Musk and Donald Trump have any intention of abiding by any set of laws.
To wit:
The police lobby has registered its support of the regime.
The former TV pundit running the Defense Department has demonstrated the future of an officer who doesn’t subscribe to the party’s
dictates.
A snap of the finger will produce from the U.S. House of
Representatives and the U.S. Senate a slate of supporting litigation mimicking
the Nuremburg Laws.
Any case that should reach the United States Supreme Court is pre-adjudicated to support the current administration.
There may, in fact, be enough power over enough states to dismantle
the United States Constitution.
A slight majority of American voters support this.
A slight minority of American voters don’t, but face the
obstacle outline above.
A significant segment of American voters don’t care
one way or another.
A deplorable segment of American youth will believe whatever their cell phones tell them in lieu of braving the elements and the forces of darkness to protest.
Is political overreach the only possible salvation for our country?
