In the USA they have arrested a Judge who was stopping ICE from breaking the law.
Even Nazi Germany simply stripped Judges they didn't like of power, it didn't arrest them.

From tax loopholes to defunding the IRS: how America’s tax system is rigged in favor of the rich (and what we can do about it).

Can We Fix Our Rigged Tax System?
For nearly a half century, trickle-down economic policies have resulted in a tax system rigged in favor of the rich. This is not only bad for our economy, but it’s leading to a billionaire takeover of our democracy as well. Watch.

The Establishment is all the richest people, they don't work and mostly never have, they own all the largest companies and the Media, most of the land, most of the countries.
They work as a group, they will never let another rich person suffer, because they could be next.

They said we had about 400-or-so people at our #TeslaTakedown. This was my first one. Great energy. Lots of honks of approval from passing cars. Peaceful and passionate. So glad I went.

Trump and DOGE have fired 25,000 federal workers so far.
Now Trump and DOGE have to hire them back thanks to court orders.
Most workers have been placed on administrative leave — technically rehired and paid, but still unable to do vital work in our communities.

Genuinely astonishing that TVCA is maintaining this falsehood about the Teesworks deal.
They're depending on councillors who are responsible for scrutiny not knowing the detail.

![In papers published ahead of next week’s TVCA cabinet meeting, TVCA persists with the falsehood that this was in exchange for the developers taking on additional liabilities in relation to the redevelopment of the former site of Redcar steelworks.
In an update to board members on the South Tees Development Corporation, the report by STDC COO John Barnes says the equity was transferred to Corney and Musgrave, who agreed to: “Take on the obligation and risk associated with the remediation of the remainder of the site.”
However, the government-commissioned Tees Valley Review into governance of TVCA and the Teesworks project, published in January 2024, clearly states “the legal documentation doesn’t impose any such obligation on [Teesworks Ltd] to undertake remediation and there is no evidence that [Teesworks Ltd] has yet done so.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hdcgjs6ukypilaz4mo2bgfxs/bafkreibqqtxyqv35ijdoqedljrm42dwkrwt7ppzccskls5woynpxgfcsgi@jpeg)
