Trust in Government and the Justice System

The State of the Union is that meme of the dumpster, on fire, floating through a completely flooded out town. But in real life. To be blunt that is the optimistic outlook.

As of this very moment we have a president that is heavily compromised by serious and significant evidence, real evidence, of him being involved or having direct knowledge of the kidnapping, trafficking, torturing, beating, raping and eating of children.
Not to mention they are, in violation of the law, refusing to release over 3 million additional documents. That, by the DOJ's own admission, "contain incredibly disturbing stuff".

Their own rethoric alone destroys their own argument that if there was anything in documents that required investigation they would.

There is, very plainly, enough in the full 6+ million files to establish a standalone international organization that does nothing but investigate and arrest people in those files.

My point is our DOJ is criminally compromised. The majority of Americans have little to no faith in DOJ or the courts.

I'll admit, my faith is completely broken. Irrevocably. Gone.
I mean Billionaires can kidnap, rape murder and eat children and absolutely nothing happens to them, hell Congress and the president will do everything in their power to protect you.
I, apparently, can be beaten and shot dead in the street by police just for filming them.
Arrested, beaten, raped and murdered by police because my turn signal didn't work.
My point is that the wealthy and well connected are truly above the law in America.

These crimes have been going on well before Mango Mussolini and I fully blame everyone involved. If we say we really care about justice for the victims then we have to put on our adult pants and be willing to admit that the cover up and protection of these criminals is the fault of everyone in government, local, state and federal, regardless of politics.

Fuck ICE

Fuck the DOJ

FUCK BILLIONAIRES

Late Lament

Breathe deep the gathering gloom,
Watch lights fade from every room.
Bedsitter people look back and lament,
Another day’s useless energy spent.
Impassioned lovers wrestle as one,
Lonely man cries for love and has none.
New mother picks up and suckles her son,
Senior citizens wish they were young.
Cold hearted orb that rules the night,
Removes the colours from our sight.
Red is grey and yellow white.
But we decide which is right.
And which is an illusion?
