Nope. They need the workers to produce their wealth. They want their lessers to be subservient, undemanding, divided and afraid. But most importantly to be compliant workers.
And they really don’t care about the unproductive dying (old, infirmed, disabled).

He’s just the most obvious turd in a punch bow full of grifters. It’s so obvious why Trump consistently places grossly unqualified people in key positions. They owe him unconditional loyalty. Dictator 101.

Hear you, but this works both ways. Judge shopping allows one friendly judge to halt national legislation. I’m thinking about the hard Right Texas judge ruling to disallow Mifepristone. It got overturned based on standing, but could have seriously curtailed national access.
I can see the problem

On Juneteenth, of course. His racism is obvious as the blonde bird nest on his head.

Here’s an idea; Do away with Presidents Day and make Elections Day a nationwide holiday.

Vaccines bad,
Tanning bed radiation good?

No wonder the B-B Bill has a tax break for tanning beds.

I’m always sort of sad to see this. Cities are not good for wildlife. They are here cause their natural habitat is mostly gone.
Here are coyotes in the wild near my home. One is a Coydog, a mix of coyote and domestic dog. They are a pair and raising just welped pups. Night photo is mom pregnant

Coyotes can mate with dogs to produce Coydogs. Here is a part coyote and Belgian Malinois(neighbor’s BM has roamed around). This hybrid mated with the female, who just gave birth. They’re hunting because they always are hunting. Located Central Texas.

Clearly a violation of the 1A.
But no matter, it's all theater for the worst of us.

And most of those night time a-holes are MAGA provocateurs. Like the BLM protests, the Boogaloo Bots etc, will be the inciting elements. Add in some mental cases….

Walked this trail many thousands of times Today this brand new fella was hiding on it. My Lab, with nose always on the ground, walked by 2’ away. I think it’s 24-48 hours old. Sure mama was watching from the bushes. Gone couple hours later.

Yes! Seen it in other public cases. The Duke lacrosse case, George Zimmerman, Shepard v Maxwell (1966). His attorney can move to move to dismiss. Also basis for disbarment or disciplinary action against AG Bundi.
Such would just pile on to the existing examples which may lead to disciplinary act

The Texas rat snake. Don’t mind them around the house cause they eat mice. But…got to keep them out of the coop because they live to also eat eggs. I remove about 10/yr. Just take them about 1000’ down the road
