No Scrutability.

No Accountability.

No Telling Who Benefits.

The neocon nutjobs appointed by Pruneface, Poppy and Smirko have enabled the national security state to destroy the Constitution, in particular We the People's parts.



Anyone who wonders should remember that the Florida stealing John Roberts personally appoints the FISA court which allows the unitary executive to hijack new powers un-Constitutionally.

It seems the same players keep popping up.
