You can’t play politics with people’s lives.
America’s federal courts have an enormous impact on the daily lives of Americans. They also make up the last relatively independent branch of government. But, there is a committed and well-organized confederation of ultra-conservative politicians, reactionary interest groups, and fundamentalist religious sects working to change that once and for all. And they are succeeding.
How?
They have a plan. They have money. And they have millions of “believers.”
A majority of Americans strongly oppose the dogmatic agenda of this extreme right-wing onslaught, but that majority has remained silent.
Someday, you and your family may wake up in a very different country, a country re-made in their intolerant image, a nation governed by their inflexible laws. |
