They have become a destroyer of nations.. well, ours mostly.
This has become standard procedure for progressive-left government to get what it wants, even though Congress, Legislatures, and the people do not want it. Create an issue, have outside pressure group sue, find court to enforce it, government agency then says "sorry, I have no choice" and policy is implemented. At same time, government funds go to said outside pressure group for "education" or other nonsense excuses to keep them in business.
No, you were originally right.
Destroy our nation, and many others are doomed.
