JUST SAYING
BY RAUL HERNANDEZ
American Justice has a For Sale sign thanks to Trump, and the feast is going to get much bigger.
Thanks to Justice Roberts and the Robed Rats on the nation’s highest court.
Ask Justice Uncle Thomas whether he’s still enjoying the “gifts”: the RV, the tuition help for a relative, the remodeling of a relative’s “historic” home. Nothing says “impartial guardian of the Constitution” like a rolling luxury thank-you note.
And let’s not pretend he’s the only one with wealthy pals who’ve been very “generous” to the nation’s highest court—private jet rides, luxury vacations, and other hush-hush gratitudes that, according to reports, somehow didn’t always make it onto the official books.
ProPublica reporters did what bulldog journalists are supposed to do: they compiled the receipts and laid out the “gift” trail and the little goody bags that turned a sacred institution into a country club with lifetime appointments.
Now the billionaires don’t just influence the law—they start judge shopping like they’re browsing yachts. The justice system is becoming a luxury marketplace: pay enough, network hard enough, and you might just find your favorite robe in your size.
America is now for sale—thanks to Roberts and his ultra-right-wing robe-wearing rats.
This is also going to attract more billionaires like flies to political races who will be out shopping for stooges looking for posh office, pay checks, long vacations and fat perks
A New and Improved Donald Trump is on the assembly line.
