I commend Justice Jackson’s dissent to you, particularly her more detailed description of the case.

Man, something screwy with them reversing the conviction rather than vacating and remanding. Makes one think that Snyder has some significant political connections.

What often becomes clear is that Alito et al make rulings based on some BS FOX propaganda about the case, not what actually happened. Make a ruling that justices can’t watch FOX News all day. I’m kidding but yeesh. Right-wing media has rotted the brain of the US, and right to the top.

I, too, need money. That’s how you solicit a bribe - er, gratuity? Just go to a business that you overpaid and tell them you need money? 💰

"I will tailor proposals so that my government will pay you over a million dollars, and oh by the way I need $15,000" is now not a bribe. Sigh.

It’s wild to think about Justice Jackson working her whole life to be on the Supreme Court and arriving to find she has to write stuff like, “Bribery is not okay” (as a dissent!)
