Peter Dingus is a physicist. He received his Ph.D. from UC Berkeley in 1988. He writes and lives with his wife in Mission Viejo, California. Currently, he is the CTO of a solar PV R&D company in Southern California.
SCOTUS, since 2004, has completely perverted the regulation of firearms in the US by making up something the constitution doesn't say. Any sane person reading the second amendment knows that it applies to state militias, not individuals.

America is no longer a country that believes in science; we seem to only believe in greed. The climate crisis will be the determining factor in human well-being in the not-too-distant future. We can only blame ourselves, not the aberrant leaders we put in power.

WSJ: T voters. "Linda Anderson believes an ICE agent was acting in self-defense. To Lori Lutz, the killing was the consequence of presidential overreach."

Televised murder is not presidential over-reach, it's SCOTUS-sanctioned murder...If he has immunity as to whatever he does, he's above the law.

SCOTUS is the problem: "On this week’s episode of Amicus, co-hosts Dahlia Lithwick and Mark Joseph Stern discuss how Good’s killing was not an aberration, but the logical end point of the administration’s theory of power—one fortified by the Supreme Court’s presidential immunity decision" --Slate

Just another day at SCOTUS. If we want this country to be recognizable in a few years, we must fix this court and bring it in line with the results of most federal courts. The design of the court is fatally flawed and must be corrected.

The Supreme Court could erase decades of progress for Black voters
If upheld by the Supreme Court, as seems likely, the challenge to Section 2 would turn the Voting Rights Act on its head.

Teresa’s final plea echoes through Liam’s mind. Grief claws at him as he crawls through darkness, but what he finds is something no human should ever see. This is a story of loss, collapse, and the strange flicker of light that still dares to fight back.

No matter your politics, the US is no longer a functional Democracy. And this condition is clear when you consider 40% of voters in the US think what's happening is ok. The system is only as good as the public that supports it.

When your core economic program is a disaster, what do you do? Fudge the numbers, of course. And, by the way, something can only decrease by 100%---this country is in serious trouble...

Thursday saw the release of a much lighter-than-expected inflation report for November, and economists are already questioning its significance.
