Are you really surprised that the US Fascist Court did nothing? They believe in states rights, as long as those rights support good Christian values; not the diabolical left-wing radical agenda.

Are you really surprised that the US Fascist Court did nothing? They believe in states rights, as long as those rights support good Christian values; not the diabolical left-wing radical agenda.
Are you really surprised after learning that, not one, but at least three religious wing-nuts on the court, are bought and paid for by “right-wing billionaires and have been taking bribes for decades?
Is it at all surprising that the same people tasked with interpreting one of the most ambiguous documents ever written in US history, The Constitution, can’t even figure out how to fill out a financial disclosure form properly?
So why would you be surprised, in the age of Trump, that as republicans lose control and power in many swing states, that they would humiliate themselves and stoop to such malevolent extremes, and deny democrats the ability to govern at all?
Wisconsin wasn’t anomaly. In Florida, where I live, DeSatan has removed two Democratically elected democratic DA’s for committing the crime of not prosecuting defendants to “Il Dunces,” I mean DeSatan’s liking. Not to mention, the book bans and taking over the boards of education in counties and at the university level.
In Arizona, republicans are trying to change elections laws to deny hundreds of thousands of people the right to vote.
In Texas, the governor has removed the School Superintendent in Houston, the largest school system in Tx, with a handpicked sycophant.
There are currently seven states with democratic governors but also have heavy gerrymandered Republican legislatures which are taking powers away from the executive.
So are you really surprised that these state GQP’s, who can see the writing on the wall, will try to subvert democracy as its final swan song?
Just like the parable of the frog and the scorpion; it’s in their nature!...:)
This isn't about religion as much as it is about unearned power and the gluttony of some, mostly in the GOP in the USA just now, to get it and keep it at any cost to any others.
Authoritarian states are not born. They are made. Often using the veneer of "democratic actions" or "lawful acts" -- think Turkey/Erdogen or Hungary/Orban. Even Putin's Russia tried and failed to go down a different path at one brief point. So we can look at Turkey, Hungary, most of South America, and some of Asia, and see our future step by step by step under the hands of MAGA and lustful gluttonous Republicans.
It is heart breaking that there are no John McCains or Barry Goldwaters (or even Mitt Romney as he was 20 years ago) anywhere to be found now. Men of principle, integrity, honor, honesty, are more important than men's policies and preferences -- today's GOP lacks all of that -- and much of what they are doing (with the help of Democrats looking the other way, pretending it isn't happening) is LEGAL... technically.... (for instance, NOWHERE in a democratic Republic should ANY politician be able to REMOVE an elected official without damn good cause! But then they shouldn't be able to rig elections either.)
Money and controlling "theology" is power. In the end it's all about power, or call it control. The rest is a way to amplify it. And yes, in the end it's a vicious circle of power for powers sake. There is no definitive goal except more power. It's self energizing. But yes, many fanatics are addicted to the layers of support, in this case theology or as we like to call it "Religion" of the theistic, retributive god type.

It’s not religion that drives them, its money, and making sure that the people that have it get more of it. That’s what they are being paid to do.
Agreed, but some are religious fanatics and rule by their theology.....:)
