The Supreme Court, Presidency, Senate and two party system are all quite anti-democratic institutions as presently constructed.
Our institutions are not only incapable of preventing tyranny—they’re currently enabling it.
When democracy returns, we need to reform our political system.

Ah yes! Thatcher’s famous justification that only privatisation will bring the investment that the utilities need.
UK public has paid £200bn to shareholders of key industries since privatisation.
In public ownership that would have gone into infrastructure, lower bills.
Privatisation delivered low investment, high bills, no tax on dividends to foreign investors.
No end to nightmare without public ownership.

Totally trust them to pursue their own (& perhaps Putin’s) interests & screw everybody else (including their supporters) in the process.
Do you trust #Farage and his new mega donor Christopher Harborne, who holds dual nationality and makes billions dealing in Crypto Currency? In 2024, Harborne, was accused by the U.S. of fraud, money laundering, terrorism financing and operating a shell company for illicit purposes.
