Everyone in DC knows that if you want to hide something, announce it on a Friday in August. Better yet, make it nearly impossible to track down.
That's exactly what SCOTUS did last week. But the news is too staggering to hide for long: SCOTUS has decided it's time to destroy the Voting Rights Act.

The Supreme Court prepares to end voting rights as we know it
And they don't want you to notice.

trump cancels 20 semi-truck loads of food deliveries en route to Ohio food banks. This is inhumane.
Cruelty is the point of this.
Each truck holds 100,000 lbs — so $2M worth of food left to sit and spoil, while the kids waiting on it went hungry.

How many signs of democratic collapse do we need?
A push to impeach judges not for misconduct but defying Trump? Refusal to honor a court order to turn around planes? Trump invoking the Alien Enemies Act outside wartime? A budget clearing him to ignore Congress? Jailing students?
The list goes on.

Vought (Proj 25) specifically said he wanted the federal workforce to be traumatised. Those were his words prior to the election.
The admin is not only fascist but evil. They want people they see as disloyal to the cause to suffer and struggle.
They want at least half of America to be traumatised.
