Who Is Above The Law?

Who Is Above The Law?

Who is above the law?

                Nobody?

                                Everybody?

                                                Somebody?

Buy your way.

Have you the money?

                Have you the contacts?

                                Do you possess a lever?

                                                Do you have the luck?

They made the laws for us  – not them!

It’s a charade.

                Buy the lawyers.

                                Drag it out.

                                                Throw it out.

The law is proportional to the cash,

                Not the offence.

Who is above the law?

Opher – 14.12.2024

I wrote this in response to Trump and Guiianni with one eye on the likes of OJ. It is obvious that if you have the money and power you can manipulate the law.

Rape – just pay the fine.

Insurrection, tax avoidance, treason, business corruption – just hire a bunch of lawyers, drag it out in the courts, lie, regain power, pardon yourself. Easy.

The law was made to control us – not them. They are above the law.

The prisons are full of poor blacks. The rich rarely see the inside of a cell unless they want to make an example to create the illusion of fairness.

We are all subject to the law – some more than others!

Trump’s Puppets!!

No longer all equal!

Unlimited power!

Above the law!

He can do what he likes with no accountability!

Is this the constitution?

Isn’t this the definition of FASCISM????

So what is to stop Biden ordering the assassination of Trump now??

Waiting for Sue Gray is like waiting for Godot!!

When the government believes it is above the rule of law we are in trouble.

When they control the media we are in trouble.

When they suppress protest we are in trouble.

We are heading towards Putin – oppression and suppression – and a one-party state.

Is Sue Gray tied up and gagged in a basement in Downing Street?

Poetry – Hypocrisy

Hypocrisy

What sticks in my craw is hypocrisy – as the elite hold their hands up in shock.

One rule for you and one for me – for they never end up in the dock.

When it comes to orgies, drugs and perversion, they’re at the front of the queue.

But when the poor do their own version – that simply will never do.

For Eton boys and establishment figures have always enjoyed free licence.

The authorities cover with rigour, and put a wall of silence.

Two-faced morality with a public face and façade.

Applied hedonistic brutality, hidden by the old guard.

Judges, colonels and police chiefs hypocritically follow a double life.

Hookers, cocaine and expensive briefs, public persona and wife.

Hypocrisy, hypocrisy – it has always been thus!

A veneer of respectability covering a canker of pus!

I wrote this after watching the TV series about Christine Keeler. It exposed the double standards very clearly. The wealthy and powerful hold their parties with hookers, drugs and rampant sex but if ordinary people do the same they hold their hands up in horror.

It’s all a façade. They project an image of propriety and gentility behind which is a world of sordid goings on.

It is the double standards that rankle with me.

The Arrogant, Entitled Erosion of Democracy. Clive Lewis Labour MP.

This is a good summary of the problem.

This government demonstrates exactly what is wrong with the system. The Tories feel so entitled and arrogant that they .really do think they can do anything they want. To hang on to power they are prepared to crush all possibility of opposition. It is a quiet British Trumpism – insidious and far-reaching. With a majority of 80 and a complete disregard for rules and laws, the Tories feel totally empowered.

Here is what Clive Lewis had to say:

Following BoJo’s statement in the commons, Clive Lewis MP (Lab) ran a short thread on twitter suggesting the need for democratic renewal in light of Gray’s findings.

‘In a healthy democracy Boris Johnson would by now be a former PM. The fact he’s still in post – having lied to Parliament and the public last year – tells us we have a problem that goes beyond his personal qualities as a political leader, to the heart of our failing democracy.

The power to hold the Prime Minister to account for his actions is now in the hands of the damaged institution of the Metropolitan Police – which has finally and belatedly started investigating – and Tory MPs who have the cover of the 1922 committee.

Herein lies the problem. Without a written constitution and without strong checks and balances on an increasingly powerful government committed to doing away with the weak checks already there, the institutions of our democracy will continue to be fatally undermined.

Right now, the government is using their power to make sure the public has none – whether that is through attacks on our voting system and the independence of the judiciary, or the hollowing
out of the right to protest, the right to vote, citizenship rights, and our human rights.

Boris Johnson should go. But this issue goes far beyond the integrity of the PM or even his government. Until we undergo a programme of democratic renewal, we’ll be stuck with a system that has proven itself unfit for the challenges we face now and in the coming century.’

Why not email him your thoughts with suggestions for a way forward?

The USA – Trump gets away with staging a coup!! He and his family are above the law!!

Is all that we will find.

Im peach him!

                Im plum him!

Put him in the stocks!

                Rotten fruit him!

Chuck apples!

Put him behind locks!

I don’t really care how we do it but the sooner we rid ourselves of these uncaring populist leaders like Trump, Bolsonaro and Johnson, the better. Then we can start to undo the damage they have done!

The Arrogant Insult that is Trump

One year ago today Trump tried everything in his power, legal and illegal, to steal an election. Over the course of a week he, as his family, encouraged armed resistance and instructed his followers to use force. He called a mass demonstration and orchestrated a march on the Capitol.

Safe within his bunker he watched the result, an insurrection, an attempted coup. He hoped that they would take the Capitol and sweep aside a lawful election result to crown him President so that he could continue to pillage the country. Not satisfied with the $1.6 billion he had already made out of his disastrous Presidency he wanted more. He loved the power.

Spreading lies and conspiracy was his stock in trade. Jumping on populist policies was his strategy. Allying himself to every extreme right-wing cause was his modus operandi. He backed walls against immigrants, guns for everyone, vilified Muslims, was anti-abortion, pro-evangelical and even supported the extreme white power movements. It was farcical. Here was an atheistic philandering lecher claiming the support of fanatical Christians.

His rise to power was on the back of division and hate the like of which will probably take generations to heal. He used race, religion and the constitution to sow fear and he reaped the rewards. Somehow this multi-billionaire playboy with what appeared to be links to the Russian Mafia was able to make working Americans believe he was on their side. He supported their jobs. He wanted to make America great again.

It’s totally beyond me as to why they believed him.

He undermined experts, undermined science, undermined the media and promoted fake news and conspiracy. It was to his advantage if Americans believed that Clinton was a baby-eating paedophile, if they believed Washington was a swamp run by alien lizards and that only he, Donal Trump, could expose the satanic paedophiles, oust the alien lizards and restore America.

He cosied up to Putin and Kim Jong-Un and yet vilified socialism.

Q-Anon was his biggest friend.

This devious, cynical sociopath made a fortune and despite the ridiculousness of his assertions, the stupidity of his schemes, the incompetence of his administration and the blatant immorality of him as a person, his followers could not get enough.

Somehow he appears to have got away with inciting a coup and making a series of blunders, lies and illegalities.

The man is an evil crook. He should be locked up along with the rest of his evil family.

What is wrong with America???
