The authoritarian oligarchical kleptocracy is flaring before our eyes in full view now. It’s been creeping towards us for decades, since Regan, in a legislative pay-to-play grift between Congress and the 1% in a corrupt theft of power and treasure from the people. In 2010, the John Roberts court put their final seal on the democracy’s death with their horrendous Citizens United “money buys elections” dictum.

The 1%, the monied and powerful, they’re not going to be safe when this whole thing implodes. They think they’ll retreat the madness and hide away in their mountaintop lairs, their first class bunkers, their mega yachts, but they will not be safe.

They caused this. Their greed and dark-hearts to blame for the suffering, for the pending collapse dooming towards us.

This is how I know that prayer doesn't work:

When Elon and The Don were pitching their used car lot venture on the ellipse, not one of the cars burst into flames, in spite of the fact that I invoked every intercessory prayer I could conjure up. Man, I tried.

That bit of theater had much the same aroma as the "Mow down those pesky protestors so I can go hold a bible in front of a church that I just noticed was across from the White House." I'm sure some of his rubes believed him when he said that he was going to buy a Tesla and pay FULL PRICE. Yeah, and your wife bakes cookies in the White House kitchen.

Just when you think they can't sink any lower, they sell cars in the White House driveway and I agree, if God was really up there, one of those cars would have fireballed.
