John Roberts’s Dream Is Finally Coming True The chief justice has been working to neuter the Voting Rights Act since the beginning of his career.

#JohnRoberts has been wanting to gut the #VotingRightsAct since the #Reaganera.

John Roberts does NOT want Black Americans to be able to vote.

John Roberts should be #impeached, along with Alito and especially Thomas.
This #SCOTUS is fucked up.

Thrillers R Us's review of Citizen Vince 5/5: In the bilge of mediocre product in the latter years of the 1990s, it took an unproven director and a precocious child actor to pique America's interest and take note of Bruce Willis once again...

Dark, hilarious & fresh, CITIZEN VINCE by @jesswalter.bsky.social is a walk on the wild side of 1980 politics. Gritty, genius & glorious crime noir should always be on the ballot. Read--Vote! #BookReview #amReading #ReaganEra #Thrillers #BookSky #Readsky

Its great that we are finally moving past the #ReaganEra myth of the #WelfareMom. The response to that statement seems to NOW be "Why do you want them to starve?"

The story of Cartel de los Soles is a complex mix of geopolitics, covert operations, and corruption. Its alleged CIA ties remind us that the war on drugs has many hidden chapters. #CartelDeLosSoles #CIA #DarkAlliance #DrugWar #Venezuela #ReaganEra

On Sept 1, 1983, the U.S. faced a Cold War crisis as the USSR shot down Korean Air Flight 007, killing 269—including Americans. 🇺🇸✈️ Tensions soared, and diplomacy was tested.

The Berlin Wall by Frederick Taylor The Berlin Wall is a book that provides a history of the Berlin Wall, from its sudden construction in 1961 to its eventual fall in 1989.

Reagan said, "Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!" But walls fall when their makers grow weak, not when others grow bold. The Soviet empire was rotting from within.

Bombs, Backlash, and the American Smokescreen A bombing in Iran has reignited questions that echo across American history. Why do military escalations so often follow domestic scandals, economic strain, or political collapse, especially under Rep...

How past administrations used foreign conflict to distract from trouble at home, from Nixon and Johnson till now. Is this national defense or history repeating itself?

Politically speaking, the current situation makes the #ReaganEra seem like a day at the beach 🤽‍♂️
Could #America be in store for a sequel to the same machinations that put Mango Mussolini in the #WhiteHouse in the first place? 🪤

**Understanding the Current Economic Crisis** According to anthropologist Peter Turchin, the current economic crisis in the United States is a result of several long-term dynamics: * **Growing inequality**: The wealth of the top 1% has increased significantly, while the working class has become increasingly impoverished. * **Overproduction of elites**: The emergence of a surplus elite, competing for power and resources, contributes to social unrest. * **Accumulation of discontent**: These factors have been building up for decades, leading to widespread discontent among the working classes. Turchin's research, based on 10,000 years of historical data, suggests that these dynamics are common precursors to major crises in societies. **The Wealth Pump and the US Crisis** ===================================== The United States is experiencing a crisis with deep historical roots, tied to the "wealth pump." This phenomenon began in the 1920s, when the country was in crisis, but was resolved by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's New Deal, which established a social contract balancing business and labor interests.

**Key Factors Contributing to the Crisis** ----------------------------------------- 1. **Deterioration of the social contract**: The implicit agreement between business and labor began to deteriorate in the late 1970s, when a new generation of elites came to power with the Reagan administration. 2. **Repression of labor movements**: The Reagan administration repressed labor movements and reduced taxes on the wealthiest, leading to a decline in wages and an increase in income inequality. 3. **Growth of the super-rich**: The number of super-rich individuals holding at least $10 million increased from 66,000 in 1983 to 693,000 in 2019, exacerbating income inequality and discontent. * #IncomeInequality * #WealthGap * #SocialContract * #NewDeal * #ReaganEra * #EconomicDisparity * #USPolitics * #EconomicInequality https://www.lemonde.fr/economie/article/2024/11/25/peter-turchin-anthropologue-aux-etats-unis-le-mecontentement-des-classes-populaires-s-accumule-depuis-trente-ans_6412660_3234.html
