The Conservative Constitutional Coup continues

This is exactly what conservatives said to Slaves.

Read it and weep #AOC!  Theoretically a fan of Ben Shapiro, after watching Ben suck on your toes, gets to rape you, as the Terrorists on Jan6th planned to do.  Afterwards you are obligated to carry Ben Shapiro's fan rape baby to term thanks to the decision by Sammy "Il Douche" Alito.  But, Ben Shapiro's tweet of 8 words contains multitudes.  "The Law" is something conservatives seek to do to Americans.  Obliterating Roe is a big victory for the Authoritarian Right.  But, it's far from the first vicious victory they've celebrated in their 50 year slow moving Coup.

Conservatives decided after Nixon was taken from them that they never let that happen again and would gain control of the US Government by any means necessary.  The Lewis Powell Memo predated Nixon's resignation but, it laid out one of the avenues of attack conservatives planned for the United States.  

Ronnie Raygun's Regime was unmitigated disaster for the media, for Unions, and advanced the economic dominance of the Rich.  Raygun getting away with high crimes and misdemeanors* via Iran-Contra was a foundational brick in the Slow Coup,

Under Bill Clinton, the Republicans gained control of Congress and despicable Newt Gingrich issued the Contract on America.

Then came the first open declaration of Rightwing War on Democracy via the Stolen Election of 2000 and the Republican Injustices Bush v Gore ruling. 

9/11 and the Phony War on Terror which followed for the next 20 years became a yolk around the neck of America which Democratic President's Obama and Biden removed.  Both paid a tremendous political price for ending, which really shouldn't matter except the Corporate Media was furious over losing their War Boners so they set upon ensuring Republicans could gain political power and disingenuously blame Barack and Joe for W(orst President Ever) and Dick Cheney's lies and war crimes. 

And that lead to the Corporate Media slagging HRC and elevating Donald John Trump; a known sleaze, a mobbed-up their, a money launderer for Russian gangsters, a slimy child rapist and absuer of women, to the Presidency because while it wasn't good for America it was good for CBS.  At the Boofer O'Kavanaugh hearings a smirking Lindsey Graham making a woman cry was delicious material for conservatives who had shared the crying HRC camping worker meme a billion times.  

And while in 2020, Trump was called the Last Middle Finger left to say fuck you to American Democracy we've seen every single Republican goose-step into line to #OwntheLibs and his the 3 miscreants he elevated to The Supreme Court are fulfilling the Bureaucratic Violence as the Coup has sped up since the Fascist Inflection Point of January 6th.

These are just the broadest of strokes of the rightwing slow-moving Coup.  There have been thousands of unjust "legal" micro-aggressions against America led by a cavalcade of local, state, and federal Republican villains and buttressed by the millions of hours rightwing propagandists have spent poisoning the Nation.

So since 2021 the slow-moving Coup begun 50 years earlier has morphed into a faster one and as the 2022 elections loom conservatives are steadily planning on ensuring the 2024 Elections don't matter and the United States is forever changed into a full-fledged Fascist White Evangelical Ethno-State
