What little I've heard of the recent court decisions seems good but I'm still worried that the left has taken the entire system.  I've heard Trump making a statement today about some medical shot for the virus and he didn't sound good.  And virtually none of us have any options.  I've heard that there are few attempts for Trump supporters to publicly demonstrate in DC, sounds good but how many of us can get there.  I would if it were nearby but obviously I couldn't get there in less than a few days.  What else is there?

Quite typically, they're showing that the rules they want on everybody else won't apply to them.  This is why Hillary got to send and receive top-secret information in a personal internet server, an act that would have sent any of us with a security clearance to jail for a long time.

One thing I've been thinking about recently was Woodrow Wilson, the first outright socialist to be in the Presidency.  I've never studied his work deeply, I did use to know the basic details but it's been a long time and obviously I've got my memory problems.  As much as anything, I'm writing this as a note to look into it.  Because I do know he truly believed in ignoring the Constitution and creating a non-elected elite who would make all the decisions for their subjects and have to wonder how much of the Democratic Party for the last century has been following his example.  It would explain a lot.

Which they entirely supported all along, but now they feel the need to pretend they actually care about their victims.  I don't really get how this newspaper has kept going for so long with stuff like this.  Historical reputation goes a long way but we can see how that eventually falls.  Look at how many Democrats Nancy Pelosi has decide to take pictures off the House walls in the last year, just as Woodrow Wilson and Margaret Sanger get removed even as their goals are still being followed.
