The Six Rings That Rule Us All [1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.'] Date: 2024-07-15 Judge Cannon has ruled that Jack Smith does not have legal right to file the documents case in federal court. It is thought that Smith can now take an appeal to the appellate court. But herein lies a problem, one that points out that, as of this moment, we are ruled by the Six Rings That Rule Us All. Those Six Rings, the six Supreme Court justices that have shredded our Constitution, are now the final arbiters of what is “justice” and “law” in this land. If Trump and his minions lose in a lower court, then they appeal to an appellate court, lose there and they appeal to the Supreme Court. We know how that has turned out so far, and it most definitely has not been in our favor. We haven’t even gotten to the election and we are fighting with one hand behind our backs. The crossroads we are at now, in my belief, are as dire as when we fought for our Union during the Civil War. In fact, I believe, this is much more dire than those horrible years, as it means the death of democracy throughout our country. I can only hope that our Democratic leadership, and the masses of citizens who still see democracy as worth saving, can come together as one and forcefully rise up to meet the challenge.
