Turns out all you need is a Supreme Court majority on your side and you can wipe your ass with the Constitution.

    I 100% agree voting is the way forward but what if things have changed and it takes a couple election cycles to truly recognize the scope of the damage? I think the curt plan for righting the ship isn’t working. I worry that it’s already too late to vote our way out of this. Russia, North Korea, Syria, Romania vote too. How do we get back what we have lost?

    I wish I had the balls to stop work to protest. I’m not allowed to talk too much about my job but I am basically the only person who makes a thing that the majority of the naval fleet pilots use to do their missile jobs. I’m deeply anti establishment but I’m personally knckle deep in the machine.

      Right now I’m not sure if you’ll get a fair vote while this mobs in power.

      It’s going to take shutdown.

      As for what you do…yeah, you’re knuckle deep and perhaps one of the rare exceptions. Even civilians in those roles are kinda trapped. I’ve been close enough to people in those kinds of positions to understand that your hands are tied. Your chance to do something positive will come, though you already are.

      The same will apply to a few crucial people; they won’t be able to move.
