Even if Trump loses in November, even if he dies in prison, today's #SCOTUS ruling on presidential immunity is a set-piece for absolute tyranny.

As soon as the GOP returns to power, America will devolve into a pure fascist state. They've laid that out, and now their court has granted them that power.

Far-right extremists broke the highest court in the land -- a fascist's hand-picked judges keep ruling in his favor. They don't care about #trump

The arbiter of the Constitution is illegitimate.

Between the ideologues, the kompromat, and the grift, it was a good plan, well-executed since the 1968.

If you zoom out the lens far enough. Kennedy brothers were the Gracchi of the #American Republic.

• We might speak of the "reform party" or the "popular party" or the "demagogs" or even the "democrats," but none of these names are really accurate, particularly not the last. After the time of the Gracchi, what really existed in Rome were two sets of unscrupulous, conniving and corrupt politicians (with a few exceptions on both sides), both of which were after power and the wealth that came with power, and not caring how they got it. One set of politicians, the senatorial conservatives, was in power, the other set, the anti-senatorial popular party, was out of power, and that was almost the only difference between them. Both sets worked hard to ruin the Roman Republic and, in the end, they succeeded.
