PROUD Dem! If you are a MAGAT douchebag or some other righty-aligned POS, don't bother talking to me, just assume that I hate your fucking guts.

This is true and Harlan Crow and Charles Koch are smart enough to know they don’t really need more justices on SCOTUS. They have what they need. What they now aim for is a full authoritarian coup. That’s why billionaires put $100M into Project 2025. We are already in the crisis.

My favorite line about war applies here: "The aggressor is always peace-loving... he would prefer to take over our country unopposed." No man, if you're trying a revolution against the Constitution of the United States, pro-Constitution Americans aren't going to simply get out of your way. Hard no.

When Democrats fantasize about unopposed power, they talk about giving everyone healthcare, education, childcare, civil rights, and a clean environment. When Republicans fantasize about unopposed power, they talk about killing literally everyone on earth. They are not the same.

The fact we are even discussing this tells me Trump is going to win. The magats don't do this. Trump could murder a bus load of nuns, and they will circle the wagons and support him even MORE. Democrats continue to act like this is just another election. It will cost us dearly.

"The six far-right radicals are part of Project 2025. In fact, they were installed by the same man who's been instrumental to that blueprint for authoritarianism."

Two viable options: Biden preempts these motherfuckers by using the immunity the asshats just granted to go scorched earth. Win back the house, maintain the senate and presidency, then go HARD at court reform. Climb up their asses with a fucking MICROSCOPE if you have to.

Gorsuch is sitting in Merrick Garland’s seat. Barrett’s confirmation was rushed through two weeks before an election. Kavanaugh is a credibly accused rapist with magically disappearing debts. Alito signals he’s not impartial. Thomas takes bribes. This Supreme Court is illegitimate.

I have put together a sizable "tip" (not "bribe" mind you, I will make sure to only pay out when the deed is done) for Biden if he, right now, declares the Republican party a terrorist organization and declares them ineligible for the election. Per the Supreme Court this week, this is acceptable!

Just a casual reminder that Germans who “didn’t bother to vote” in 1932 didn’t get a chance again until 1946, after Hitler’s death. — There’s a lesson there.

The 14th Amendment says if you were involved in an insurrection you can't be president. SCOTUS said they won't allow anyone to enforce that because of reasons they made up. The Constitution doesn't say the president is immune from criminal law. SCOTUS decided he is because of reasons they made up.

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?

The masks are off, not even hiding it anymore. The Supreme Court is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Republican party.

SCOTUS last week: Chevron is overruled because it’s our job to interpret law! Not the executive branch! SCOTUS today: who’s to say if the president behaved lawfully! 🤷‍♀️

Legal pundits over time Dec 1, 2023: SCOTUS will reject Trump's appeal on an expedited basis Dec 22, 2023: They are letting the DC Circuit handle it to not even dignify it. Feb 28, 2024: The are taking the case on appeal but will completely reject the claim. June: SCOTUS says Trump is your God/King

This one kept me up nights. I knew it was coming, but I still thought (foolishly) sanity would prevail. But, nope. They have the ancillary pieces in place for authoritarian rule. All they need now is "their guy" in the presidency and we will no longer recognize the USA as a democracy.

Just one more step in the right wing lurch towards authoritarian rule. Who needs the EPA, Clarence Thomas and Sam Alito will now tell you how much lead in your drinking water should be considered "safe"

The NYT is just a bunch of absolute fucking clowns at this point. One guy wants to absolutely destroy democracy and our country as we know it, and you want the OTHER guy to bow out??? I hope that paper goes under, they are fucking useless.

The biggest revelation of the past 8 years for me is how many truly horrible people we are expected to share a country with. And I don't really know how this works going forward after they've shown us what absolute fucking garbage they really are.

Exactly. And because it's a bit esoteric in nature, I don't think the average person realizes what a huge deal this is!

The idea they want to move away from experts making these decisions so they can instead make their own decisions in these cases is...well, not good!
