Summary
Trust in the U.S. judicial system has hit a record low, with only 35% of Americans expressing confidence, according to Gallup.
Criticism centers on the Supreme Court’s conservative majority, accused of advancing right-wing agendas, eroding rights like abortion access, and lacking accountability.
This judicial capture, orchestrated by conservative groups like the Federalist Society, ensures Republican dominance in key policies for decades, regardless of future elections.
The guardian are corporate shills. This is a GOOD thing. If Luigi wins, that’s precedence. Time to pop some brass.*
* brass, meaning c-suite
I’ll trust the system a bit more after Luigi is acquitted.
Don’t hold your breath. They’ve thrown terrorism enhancements on his fucking charges.
30% lost faith when we prosecuted Trump.
35% lost faith when Trump walked.
Seems to track to me!
yeah, different parties. But Luigi appeals to both party’s constituents, so during his prosecution the judiciary is at an extra disadvantage. I imagine the government will try to use some sort of secret closed to the public terrorism court for this so they can eliminate the trial of his peers aspect of it. I’d bet real money on it right now, actually
35% is far too high.
I still meet people who trust a police officer to have their best interests in mind.
Won’t trust it until Trump is in a cell.
There’s two justice systems. There’s two classes. Until this bullshit ends, it’s the same as it ever was.
