    Our values are changing. The speaker of the House says that the separation of church and state does not exist. Second in line to the presidency.

    Our history is being rewritten. Just look at the reinterpretation of the 2nd amendment after Reagan.

        2nd in line. Biden is literally the president. He is not “first in line to be president”. Harris is 1st in line and Johnson is 2nd in line.

        Not Americans. Republicans in congress. Americans did not pick Mike Johnson to preside over the House. Only a small percentage of Americans even voted for him because they had to be in his district. Americans are powerless to stop this.

      And? All that has happened before.

      Actual President William McKinley felt America had a duty to spread Christianity to the rest of the world.

      And in my opinion Dred Scott is a much greater travesty of constitutional law.

      Again, just because the country has failed to uphold its values does not mean that the values are worthless
