Chuck Darwin<p>Biden set to announce support for major Supreme Court changes</p><p>President Biden is finalizing plans to endorse major changes to the Supreme Court in the coming weeks, including proposals for legislation to establish <br>⭐️term limits ⭐️for the justices and an 💥enforceable ethics code💥<br>according to two people briefed on the plans.<br>
He is also weighing whether to call for a ♦️constitutional amendment to eliminate broad immunity for presidents ♦️and other constitutional officeholders, the people said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss private deliberations.<br>
The announcement would mark a major shift for Biden, a former chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, <br>who has long resisted calls to make substantive changes to the high court. </p><p>The potential changes come in response to growing outrage among his supporters about recent ethics scandals surrounding Justice Clarence <a href="https://c.im/tags/Thomas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Thomas</span></a> and decisions by the new court majority that have changed legal precedent on issues including <a href="https://c.im/tags/abortion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>abortion</span></a> and federal <a href="https://c.im/tags/regulatory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>regulatory</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/powers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>powers</span></a>.</p><p>

Chuck Darwin<p>A World of Slaves:<br>Most Americans haven’t seen what’s coming.</p><p>Nancy MacLean notes that when the Kochs’ control of the GOP kicked into high gear after the financial crisis of 2007-08, many were so stunned by the “shock-and-awe” tactics of shutting down government, destroying labor unions, and rolling back services that meet citizens’ basic necessities that few realized that many leading the charge had been trained in economics at Virginia institutions, especially George Mason University. <br>Wasn’t it just a new, particularly vicious wave of partisan politics?<br>It wasn’t. MacLean convincingly illustrates that it was something far more disturbing.<br>MacLean is not the only scholar to sound the alarm that the country is experiencing a hostile takeover that is well on its way to radically, and perhaps permanently, altering the society. <br>Peter <a href="https://c.im/tags/Temin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Temin</span></a>, former head of the MIT economics department, INET grantee, and author of "The Vanishing Middle Class", as well as economist Gordon <a href="https://c.im/tags/Lafer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Lafer</span></a> of the University of Oregon and author of "The One Percent Solution", have provided eye-opening analyses of where America is headed and why. <br>MacLean adds another dimension to this dystopian big picture, acquainting us with what has been overlooked in the capitalist right wing’s playbook.<br>She observes, for example, that many liberals have missed the point of strategies like <a href="https://c.im/tags/privatization" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>privatization</span></a>. <br>Efforts to “reform” public education and Social Security are not just about a preference for the private sector over the public sector, she argues. You can wrap your head around those, even if you don’t agree. <br>Instead, MacLean contends, the goal of these strategies is to radically alter power relations, weakening pro-public forces and enhancing the lobbying power and commitment of the corporations that take over public services and resources, thus advancing the plans to dismantle democracy and make way for a return to oligarchy. <br>The majority will be held captive so that the wealthy can finally be free to do as they please, no matter how destructive.<br>MacLean argues that despite the rhetoric of Virginia school acolytes, shrinking big government is not really the point. <br>The oligarchs require a government with tremendous new powers so that they can bypass the will of the people. <br>This, as MacLean points out, requires greatly <a href="https://c.im/tags/expanding" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>expanding</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/police" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>police</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/powers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>powers</span></a> “to control the resultant popular anger.” The spreading use of pre-emption by GOP-controlled state legislatures to suppress local progressive victories such as living wage ordinances is another example of the right’s aggressive use of <a href="https://c.im/tags/state" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>state</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/power" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>power</span></a>.<br>Could these right-wing capitalists allow private companies to fill prisons with helpless citizens—or, more profitable still, right-less undocumented immigrants? They could, and have. <br>Might they engineer a retirement crisis by moving Americans to inadequate 401(k)s? Done. <br>Take away the rights of consumers and workers to bring grievances to court by making them sign forced arbitration agreements? Check. <br>Gut public education to the point where ordinary people have such bleak prospects that they have no energy to fight back? Getting it done.<br>Would they even refuse children clean water? Actually, yes.<br>MacLean notes that in <a href="https://c.im/tags/Flint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Flint</span></a>, Michigan, Americans got a taste of what the emerging oligarchy will look like — it tastes like poisoned water. There, the Koch-funded Mackinac Center pushed for legislation that would allow the governor to take control of communities facing emergency and put unelected managers in charge. In Flint, one such manager switched the city’s water supply to a polluted river, but the Mackinac Center’s lobbyists ensured that the law was fortified by protections against lawsuits that poisoned inhabitants might bring. Tens of thousands of children were exposed to <a href="https://c.im/tags/lead" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lead</span></a>, a substance known to cause serious health problems including brain damage.<br>Tyler <a href="https://c.im/tags/Cowen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cowen</span></a> has provided an economic justification for this kind of brutality, stating that where it is difficult to get clean water, private companies should take over and make people pay for it. “This includes giving them the right to cut off people who don’t—or can’t—pay their bills,” the economist explains.<br>To many this sounds grotesquely inhumane, but it is a way of thinking that has deep roots in America.
