In my view, Democracy ended in the USA when Jeb Bush broke his oath to uphold the laws of Florida to count all the votes, instead he went to the U.S. Supreme Court which handed the presidency to his brother.

W ruined Blue Texas and Jeb ruined Blue Florida. 
And that's why this site exists, folks.

Supreme Court Nukes Hunter Biden Laptop Conspiracy in Brutal Ruling





The Supreme Court issued a surprising decision on Wednesday, finding that complaints that the Biden administration had forced censorship on conservative social media users were unfounded.

Aside: Dana Bash's ex-husband was one of those 51. Small world, eh?
