    Should've asked to overturn the civil rights act too, let States handle slavery also...

    What's much easier and unavoidable in the end, is that they stop being stuck in the 1930's and join the rest of the world in the 21st century, tbh...

    Sheldon Whitehouse:

    Don't believe Justice Alito --

    it's clear this Supreme Court was built by (FASCIST) dark money


    The problem for Justice Alito's sense of grievance is that the evidence supports our concerns. Alito has participated in a pattern of decisions —

    like the court's recent "shadow docket" ruling suspending abortion rights in our second-biggest state —

    that deliver wins for big Republican donors.

    Americans' perception that the court lacks independence,

    and the court's related drop in approval,

    doesn't flow from some left-wing conspiracy.

    It's a recognition that

    the evidence shows a pattern whenever certain interests come before the court.

    During Chief Justice John Roberts' tenure, the Court has issued

    more than 80 partisan decisions, by either a 5-4 or 6-3 vote,

    involving big interests important to Republican Party major donors.

    Republican-appointed justices have handed wins to the donor interests in every single case.

    The decisions

    greenlit rampant voter suppression and

    bulk gerrymandering ;

    closed courthouse doors to workers wronged by their employers;

    unleashed floods of dark money to corrupt our politics and foul our democracy

    and more.

    Eighty to zero

    is a pattern so strong that it could serve as compelling evidence in a trial alleging bias and discrimination.

    All your side had to do was keep RBG on life support till 1.20.21. But, you was too prideful and ed up.

    Solly Cholly!!!

    'Nightmare scenario':

    Substantial majority of Americans don't trust Supreme Court, want reforms

    As the Supreme Court's conservative justices expel noxious fumes about their impartiality and adherence to judicial philosophy,

    Americans continue
    to call bullpucky in poll after poll.

    62% of Americans view politics—not the law—as the main driver of Supreme Court decisions.

    across the political spectrum agree,

    with 60% of Republicans,

    66% of Democrats, and

    63% of independents

    all saying the political views of the justices drive the decision-making of the nation’s highest court.

    “The court faces a public convinced that its decisions are about politics rather than the Cons ution,

    just as it prepares to make important decisions on abortion, guns, and affirmative action.”

    https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2021/10/20/2059227/-The-current-Supreme-Court-has-been-irrevocably-politicized-and-Americans-want-reforms

    Too late. The Capitalist oligarchy has captured SCOTUS as it has captured govt. NO remedy possible

    America is ed and un able.

    This is the conservative/oligarchy attack on the Cons ution's "non-delegation clause"

    "The non-delegation doctrine is a principle in administrative law that

    Congress cannot delegate its legislative powers to other en ies.

    This prohibition typically involves Congress delegating its powers to administrative agencies or to private organizations." (eg the Exec branch agencies)

    https://www.thenation.com/article/en...on-sentencing/

    This part of the oligarchy's strategy to weaken if not destroy govt's "administrative state",

    so the govt would not be able to stop the oligarchy from raping, killing, pillaging, polluting, impoverishing

    The FASCIST Capitalist oligarchy would wield supreme power beyond challenge.

    America is ed and un able

    It's stupid clause, another FF up.

    They are not going to overturn Roe v Wade, and they will allow the idiotic Texas abortion ban to be sued and eventually overturned.

    Roe v Wade is the gift that keeps on giving for the GOP. It will allow them to keep taking money and votes from single-issue Evangelicals and rural whites. No way they turn off that tap.

    Huh, similar to the reason Dems won't pass a law legalizing abortion, it would kill the suspense.

    Sticking it to the libs is becoming a blood sport. GOP keeps raising the bet. They tried to steal a presidential election, they rendered abortion unavailable in Texas, and now they're censoring school curriculums (all over the place) and muzzing professors (FL). I don't share your sense of security about this.

    John Roberts warns against Texas nullification:

    ‘Our cons utional system is at stake’


    Chief Justice John Roberts cited two cases from early cons utional law with a dire warning as the U.S. Supreme Court on Friday delivered a ruling on the near-total ban on abortion passed by Republicans in Texas.

    "The clear purpose and actual effect of S. B. 8 has been to nullify this Court’s rulings," Roberts wrote

    "It is, however, a basic principle that the Cons ution is the 'fundamental and paramount law of the nation,' and '[i]t is emphatically the province and duty of the judicial department to say what the law is,'" Roberts said,

    "Indeed, '[i]f the legislatures of the several states may, at will, annul the judgments of the courts of the United States,

    and destroy the rights acquired under those judgments,

    the cons ution itself becomes a solemn mockery,'" he continued,

    citing
    United States v. Peterson from 1809 that determined state legislatures can't overrule federal courts.

    Sotomayor unloads on the Supreme Court for betraying the Cons ution in scathing response to Texas ‘madness’

    "The Court should have put an end to this madness months ago, before S. B. 8 first went into effect.

    It failed to do so then, and it fails again today," wrote Sotomayor.

    "I concur in the Court’s judgment that the pe ioners’ suit may proceed against certain executive licensing officials who retain enforcement authority under Texas law, and

    I trust the District Court will act expeditiously to enter much-needed relief.

    I dissent, however, from the Court’s dangerous departure from its

    precedents, which establish that federal courts can and should issue relief when a State enacts a law that

    chills the exercise of a cons utional right and aims to evade judicial review."

    "By foreclosing suit against state-court officials and the state attorney general,

    the Court effectively invites other States to refine S. B. 8’s model for nullifying federal rights," Sotomayor continued.

    "The Court thus betrays not only the citizens of Texas, but also our cons utional system of government."

    That sucker doesn't like being on a back burner. He had it all, sittin' up there portending to be swing, when he was never anything but left, hard left. He ain't now. Nope.

    Though I'm still regretful that President Trump didn't have Justice Thomas in there for a Dutch uncle and talk him into retiring so we could get another ringer in there, a youngster.
