5. Justice is dead and so is the free press.

From the Signal Press

But what I do know, is that not only have we seen the death of justice in America, we have also seen the death of the free press. It's happened right in front of us. They've been reporting all of this collapse and outrage as if it were just routine, no more sensational than the liquor store down the street getting robbed for the fifth time. And today's news programs were sickening drivel, inconsequential babble and driven by the ignorance of people who call themselves "journalists."

The New York Times puts its motto on its pages, "Democracy dies in darkness." Well, people, the sun has gone down fast, and we are in the last moments of twilight for our Democracy. It's been left up to us.
