It’s rarely put so plainly, but Peter is exactly correct on this episode: law enforcement, as a whole, constitutes a right wing political group that has been funded and elevated with enthusiastic bipartisan consensus. Any Democrat who fails to understand this will fail to fix anything.

You know when you learn about something and you’re like OH. That explains…everything? That’s how I feel about the Powell Memo. The roadmap for the pro-corporate, anti-people takeover of the courts, the consequences of which are devastating. Genuinely stoked for this
