Trump adds five conservatives to list of possible Supreme Court picks
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - In a move certain to please conservatives, President Donald Trump on Friday added five names to his list of candidates for a prospective U.S. Supreme Court vacancy as he presses ahead with a campaign to move the federal judiciary to the right.

Of course, these things do not last forever. So the question is how to bring about an end to this insanity, and instead move in a direction that is at least more appealing than where we are headed at present.
Voting is a good first step.
But that's not nearly enough. Have to get involved at the local level (and beyond), make your voice heard, else gonna continue being run over roughshod by the opposition.
More than that, time to get fucking creative about how to better organize and project messages that resonate with the voters.
Who are the voters? And perhaps more importantly, why are there still (in this day-and-age of instantaneous global communication) so many obstacles to people being able to cast their votes? Seriously, gonna make me stand in line all day to vote for the lesser of two evils, with no monetary compensation, and possibly actual loss of money for that work day, due to time missed from work? Fuck you and whatever horse you rode in on.
Change this shit or be ready for a more vengeful civil war.
My hunch is that the rich are getting ready for that civil war. Hence, the ability to purchase a small-scale nuclear-powered generator sufficient to provide power to folks in a typical gated community in America.
The rich don't give a shit, because they are not only afraid of us, but also of each other. And by default of their position in our social constructs of hierarchy, they believe that they are entitled to be where they are, no matter how miserable life is for the rest of us, or the circumstances that created such misery.
