Retired engineer living the good life in rural Connecticut. Interested in too many things to make real progress in any of them. Newly minted US Citizen so I believe in the Constitution, apple pie and anything else with sugar.

I ended that piece with a warning: "What we are witnessing, once again, is the alignment of white power against racial justice and redress. As history has shown, maintaining racial inequality requires constant repression and is therefore antithetical to democracy..."

The White House called the revocation of Executive Order 11246 “the most important federal civil rights measure in decades." I wrote about this tactic of co-opting the language of racial equality to cement racial INequality in my NYT Mag cover story last year called "The Colorblindness Trap."

With knobs on. Lots of rage against Garland but in my book Mitch bears most responsibility for the cluster we're about to be fuc*Ed with. He put the judges in place and it's the judges not the prosecuters who really matter. He also failed to impeach when he had Trump on his knees.

The first rule in resisting tyranny according to Prof Snyder : "Do not comply or submit in advance". With Wray falling on his sword, it doesn't bode well for the rest of the establishment in resisting Trumps corruption.
