Transition, Transformation and Radical Thinking.
We've covered what transition means for the two Major players in the U.S government. We have also tackled what it means for the presidency (seeming to talk directly to the new leader). Now we will look at another Branch of Government. The Supreme Court.
When Clarence Thomas joined the Elite Group of judges the process by which he was selected was very rough. You could say it was a decade of scandals in Washington. But he was a pivotal conservative African American figure. What he went through had such a numbing effect on him that he often regrets accepting the call to the Court.
The next major hurdle that brought the Highest court to our attention was the Battle for Florida and the questions regarding 'chads'. Little marking on ballot papers that were used in deciding the closeness of the pole results. Visibly shaken members of the court were later seen also looking visibly shaken by the ordeal of having to decide on a very close race.
In my view this was one step that led to the changes (10 years or so later) that we saw in the key state of Florida which incidentally was being run Jeb Bush. Florida was always going to be controversial because of its closeness to Cuba and the presence of so many dissidents. The same group was very vocal in the past government's monumental decisions to restore diplomatic relations with the long time foe.
We are going to see much more tension with other governments and the dissidents that have stood against them now that the one hundred and twenty day freeze on immigration has been enacted. The result is that those that have once opposed their governments and spoken against them will find fewer peaceful options favoring violence as a means of gaining power. This will be played out in Syria, Egypt, Somalia, Iraq, Iran and many more. Many who have in the past spoken against hostile governments have often found solace in American Universities as lecturers and professors of literature and politics. This ban changes this or at least makes it harder to benefit from the gifts that amnesty provides.
There are others who have had to bear the brunt of these massive changes in policy that will speak again or wait for 'I told you so moments'. In addition we will see and have already seen a resurgent Russia which in all fairness we were unable to tame except when it came to the creations of missile Defence systems which we deployed in lands that were partners in NATO. There is a feeling that the Oligarchs that supported the regime are being rewarded or replicated with some of the cabinet positions but bigger changes in the highest court of the land will bring the Nation back to a system that will resemble that of the Patriarch and his successor both of whom created and took over a system that was working to weaken Russia. Remember it was during Ronald Reagan's presidency with his trio of power brokers (Thatcher, Kohl and Gorbachev) when the Iron Curtain began to fall with repercussions in most of Eastern Europe.
