I have no idea the best path re Biden but I do know a solid week straight of βBiden Oldβ and βRich Dems Worriedβ above-the-fold stories are *obscene* in the face of SCOTUS using the Constitution to wipe their asses purely in the service of reinstating a felon rapist as president. Crazy-making shit.

Three days ahead of the 248th anniversary of the American colonists shucking off monarchial rule in Philadelphia, SCOTUS gilded the presidency with monarchial powers the likes of which weβve never had, never sought, and thought we had rid ourselves of two and half centuries ago.

It's hard to even imagine the limits of the power that SCOTUS has just handed the president. If you can keep 34 senators and the military on your side, you can do anything.

The thing I can't stop thinking about is this: I'm 48, and in my adult lifetime there has been one Republican who won the popular vote. But I will probably spend the rest of my life under the authority of a Supreme Court dominated by hard right conservatives. How is that democracy?

Holy shit, the Supreme Court actually wrote that Trump telling Pence to claim the wildly unconstitutional power to single-handedly reject certified Electoral College votes, thereby overthrowing Constitutional democracy, can't be illegal because POTUS and VP talking about it makes it an official act.

"With fear for our democracy, I dissent," is about as bedrock and terrifying and vital a statement as you're going to get. That's a line you spraypaint on walls, that you ink into your skin. And it's chilling that it is necessary to say at all.

I don't want some egghead bureaucrat telling me whether there's poison in the water I drink. Ideally I'd want that decided by a 29yo judge who went to a "biblical law school" and does not believe dinosaurs existed, and then to have that decision reaffirmed six years later by the Supreme Court.

Reminder: 5 of 6 GOP Supreme Court justices were confirmed by GOP-run Senates where the Dem minority had won more votes & represented more people than the GOP.
3 were also appointed by Trump, who lost the popular vote, & 2 more by Bush, who lost it for his 1st term www.dailykos.com/stories/2023...

In April 1944, the Vice President of the United States wrote an article in the New York Times about the threat of Fascism in the United States. He ended by predicting that right wing anti-Communist saber rattlers in the US will inject a fascistic brand of politics into our political culture.
