This is frightening to watch. This is not some rando spewing racist lies, this is the Republicans choice to run the nation.

they can call it what they want, but the effect is it’s putting a torch to dry kindling.

The Bible says it's a sin to "Bear false witness", the propaganda newspaper for the wannabe American Nazi Party (Republican), this utter and complete nonsense: www.nytimes.com/2024/08/25/u.... Vance lies about people who are legally in his home state.

In his 30s, the Republican vice-presidential nominee read works on theology, mysticism, and political and moral philosophy. And he discovered his faith.

The history Bowie recounts dovetails with Joshua Douglas’ recent book “The Court v. The Voters: The Troubling Story of How the Supreme Court Has Undermined Voting Rights” Salon interview here: www.salon.com/2024/05/11/c... 13/28

Seeing SCOTUS as anti-democratic isn't some new radical POV, Bowie shows. It was expressed by Alexis de Tocqueville in his classic “Democracy in America,” writing “American aristocracy is at the lawyers’ bar and on the judges’ bench”: 10/28

Bowie makes clear that seeing the Supreme Court as a threat to democracy isn’t some wild new radical perspective. It can be found in Alexis de Tocqueville’s “Democracy in America,” where he declares that the “American aristocracy is at the lawyers’ bar and on the judges’ bench,” as reflected in the legal establishment's attitudes and its tension with American society as a whole. Bowie continues:
“The more you think about what happens in the United States,” Tocqueville continued, “the more you feel persuaded that in this country the body of jurists forms the most powerful and, so to speak, the sole counterweight of democracy.” Even though all literate Americans could read and understand their Constitution, American judges treated the document as inscrutable to all but themselves. Like “the priests of Egypt,” they considered themselves “the sole interpreter of an occult science.”
