The Escalation of Alito’s Failure as a Supreme Court Justice

Op-ed by TheWiseOldFart

Samuel Alito was nominated for an open seat on the Supreme Court by George W. Bush in October of 2005, and confirmed by the Senate in January of 2006.

His nomination forced close scrutiny from the left. Alito’s actions in a lower court were often controversial. However, after he swore to remain impartial, and was confirmed by a vote of 58-42. Like all right-wing politicians, he lied.

ALITO AND THOMAS ARE OBVIOUSLY MEMBERS OF TRUMP’S CULT

Both Alito and Clarence Thomas, who was appointed in 1991 by George H.W. Bush, continue to support issues important to the extremist faction of those who call themselves Republicans.

We know that Thomas’ wife, “Ginny,” was present at the beginning of the January 6 insurrection. She openly supports the worst president in history. Records show that she and her husband received gifts in the form of luxury vacations from billionaire supporters who favor fascism, and the end of democracy in America.

Alito continues his futile efforts to downplay the seriousness of incidents involving the American flag. He continues to change his story about why it was flown upside down for several days. This symbol has become synonymous with Trump’s baseless claim known as “stop the steal.”

Like Thomas, Alito has received numerous gifts from billionaires who support Trump and his plans for our nation’s future.

Thomas and Alito were two of the six biased justices who are responsible for one of the darkest days in America’s history.

On June 24, 2022, America learned that the Court had been bastardized for decades to come. Three of the six justices who revealed that the Court is forever politicized, are young enough to live for 30-40 more years. Lifetime appointments are one of the biggest mistakes made by our Founding Fathers.

The repeal of a 49-year-old decision known as Roe v Wade was a vicious attack on women’s rights and diametrically opposed to the spirit and intent of the Constitution. However, Moscow Mitch McConnell, in collusion with the Federalist Society, achieved a lifetime goal supported by every member of the former Grand Old Party. Right-Wing politicians are desperate to maintain the support of the unconstitutional Christian Religious Right.

ABRAHAM LINCOLN FORESAW 21^ST CENTURY AMERICA

It is clear to anyone paying attention that we are engaged in a Second Civil War. The right-wing politicians in Washington bow to their Fuhrer, Donald John Trump, and his plan to regain power and end democracy forever by shredding the Constitution.

The war is clearly a battle between those who support a plutocracy, controlled by a fascist government, and those of us who are loyal to the United States of America and its guarantees of freedom and equality for every citizen, regardless of race, ethnicity, religious belief, sex, sexual orientation, or the color of their skin.

In this war, Trump and his supporters are the “New Confederacy,” also known as Neo-Nazis, and patriots are the protectors of the dreams of our Founding Fathers.

This is not a conspiracy theory. Just look at the reaction from right-wing politicians after Trump was convicted on all 34 felony charges in a federal court. They are mimicking his words, although his verdict was clearly just and fair according to the evidence.

ALL HOPE IS LOST

With the corruption of six justices of the Supreme Court, all hope is lost. They were our last chance to save our country.

Trust is earned, not freely given. I no longer trust anyone with power or outrageous wealth. It begins with our local police, our military leaders, politicians, religious leaders, and reaches all the way up to the highest Court in the land.

The only weapon you and I possess is our vote. This November’s election is the most important in the history of the world. America will either survive or become nothing but a warm memory when the rights of everyone were valued and protected by our leaders.

Your choice: your future.
