Two sitting justices of the Supreme Court are insurrectionists—or, most generously, married to them. Our system can do nothing about them because the people running it have insisted upon their own powerlessness. We’re not operating under a constitution; we’re trapped in a suicide pact.

We *could* do something about it. There's a process for impeachment. We'd just need to elect a Congress with the spine to do it. Other judges have been impeached; presidents have been impeached. There's no reason the justices can't be.

I'm ready for them to dig into Stephen Breyer considering he is the other justice who did not attend the inauguration citing covid safety.

Until there's a majority of justices' spouses calling for a coup it doesn't count

How the corruption is so blatant, the compromised justices so blase' about being caught to the demand that they be taken seriously it's almost surreal that it's all happening with no consequences

Yes. Checks and balances don't work if no one is checking or balancing.

The same folks in power claiming to be powerless also don't seem particularly incensed about any of it. Where is the fucking outrage? Demonstrable corruption and treason at the Supreme Court and it's like eh yeah whaddaya gonna do.

It’s so demoralizing that even if Democrats don’t care about the rule of law or even democracy itself, they should at least be self-interested enough to know that these guys want to ensure they never win another election. But they still won’t do anything
