For those not afraid to read Thom Hartmann -- this is really good.

53. Thom and RT

This is from memory 10 to 20 years ago, but I think RT was one of more than a few outlets he was syndicated on or was available on. Thom repeatedly said he had complete journalistic freedom on RT and could say what ever his journalistic ethics deemed suitable, consistent with his entire record of responsible non-propaganda deep dive investigative JOURNALISM.

Thom did not catapult ruskie propaganda, in other words.

I think if the ENTIRE MSM APPARATUS adhered to Thom's journalistic standards the entire 20th century from Bush v. Gore on would have been completely different. Like no bogus invasions based on Dick Cheney's efforts to find a Saddam-9-11 connection combing through raw intelligence in a CIA basement. And planting false info in the NY Times via reporter Judith Miller, who relished her role as Cheney's propaganda catapulting apparatchik. Ahhh, the good ole' "Curveball" days.....

To the SC, the meaning and lessons of Bush v. Gore was that they could make political rulings instead of legal rulings and now the rule of law at the SC has been replaced with 14th century doctrine from an obscure dark ages catholic cult.

Merger of church and state, something the Founders worked real hard to prevent as they created the Constitution. 1787 to 2022 was a pretty good run for Democracy. It's too bad the majority of Americans now favor Dictatorship over Democracy. And, it's not a majority of Americans. It's a minority of about a third of Americans that truly favor fascism. It's all the MSM propaganda outfits that have engineered permanent fringe conspiracy theory nut job poorly educated minority rule.

I'm not a SC scholar by any means, but back about 2005-2009? when Roberts decided to gut the voting rights act because, paraphrasing, "racial discrimination is a thing of the past which no longer exists", that opened up the floodgates of restrictive voting laws designed to keep Dems and minorities from voting. These restrictive voting laws exploded in the heavily ignorant racist poorly educated southern states, who regularly vote against their own interests and have made major contributions to our current state of fledgling DICTATORSHIP.

So many rulings of the 21st century SC seem to verify that the current SC hates Democracy and they have utter contempt for the principles the Founders engineered in to our brilliant Constitution.
