It’s time we give the Grifting for Oligarchs Party a break. Since it’s clear that they never intend to fulfill their Constitutional Purpose (i.e., promote our general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty for us and our posterity), they need a special strategy to put them over the top.

In addition to voter suppression and election fraud activities, perhaps the most important thing is that they need to build and maintain a critical mass of poorly educated authoritarian followers that will vote in a block for the oligarch’s candidates of choice. And that’s where their wedge tactics provide an elegant solution to serve the wealthy.
All it takes is a way to make the MAGA cultists feel in control, feel safe and feel superior. And that just takes the incessant repetition of wedge issues to separate the cult members from the rest of society.
First, we have the “Pro-life” (or anti-Womens’ reproductive rights) wedge, so the menfolk can be told by those who grift in the name of the Lord to feel in control of their womenfolk (as is so excellently described in Thom’s Daily Take today).
Second, make them feel safe about their sanctimonious attachment to guns with non-stop propaganda (and sales opportunities) regarding the subject of the 2nd Amendment.
Third, make them feel superior to everyone who is not part of the cult by flooding social media (and the MSM) with all the bigot-related wedge issues like racism, misogyny, xenophobia, etc.
Although the 1st Amendment tells us that “Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion” Texas District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk opined that ‘the use of contraception (just like abortion) violates traditional tenets of many faiths, including the Christian faith plaintiff practices.’”
The question I have is, since we now have a democracy that has laws that support the beliefs and interpretations of the grifter Christians in power, how can we go back to the Post-Roe/Pre-Reagan Era when women’s reproductive rights were finally acknowledged and sanctioned?
Old Dave, We have talked. Your turn of phrase of Constitutional Purpose didn't sink in until now.
Constitutional purpose vs originalism.
What was the purpose of the Constitution, you quoted it from the document itself, promote our general welfare and secure the blessings of liberty for us and our posterity
The SCOTUS six make pretense, to further their religious ideological agenda, that they have the capability to read the minds of the men who wrote the Constitution, (seances anyone). But they are no different than the Pastors, Priests, Rabbi's, who use god as their sock puppet.
That is all the Supreme Six are, ventriloquists using the founders as sock puppets.
Let us remember that the Catholic Supreme 6 are being run by the Catholic Bishops of America and Rich Millionaires and billionaires. Oh let's not forget the non- Christian vangelicals. They are no longer a Supreme Court they are the inferior Court and the fascist Court of America. They are in fact nothing more than the right arm of the American fascist party- formerly the Republican Party. For those of you who don't like the idea of my calling them the American fascist party let me just say I call a spade a spade and so should everyone else. How are we going to face the people that are coming for our country if we don't at least call them by their real name- fascists, the American fascist party, and the fascist Supreme Court.
I had the same epiphany about Constitutional Purpose some time ago and after that I have wondered why it took me so long for it to sink in, (and why you are the first person I know that has actually acknowledged its fundamental importance). The human brain continues to amaze.
I love your sock puppet analogy, and whether it's a SCOTUS religious grifter's hand in the socks or the strings that the plutocrats pull to get their SCOTUS whores to do their bidding, they are definitely not promoting our general welfare or securing the blessings of liberty for us and future Americans.
But the puppet masters are doing great, whether from America, Moscow, or Saudi Arabia.
I also wondered why it took so long for the phrase constitutional purpose to "set in".
And it is because it is a new phrase, or one that is not often used, but just words until placed in its context justaposed to the concept of originalism. Then again one has to understand the word originalism, and how it is used in the context of SCOTUS, using it as an excuse to make law.
