    “You’ve made your ruling, let’s see you enforce it”

    Where does political power come from?

        As Congress has chosen to allow the President to exert Congressional power, so We the People, with the assistance of decades of fascist propaganda, have allowed the oligarchs to exert… Peoplenal? power. Shaddup, lemme have that one, okay? But seriously, the power of the people is in the hands of the oligarchs.

        Unless we take it back.

        But a third of us actively have chosen to depart from reality, logic, sanity; another third are too poor and tired to care, and the last third have enough energy to vote but that’s about it.

        So basically, we’re fucked.
