I love how weak sauce is in her vernacular.

Not that shit again.

mooncabbage ,

You should see the latest video I just saw. Republicans running things like an auctioneer speaking so fast and slamming the hammer before anyone can say anything or do anything then saying “whoops too late.”

Did they ever punish Speaker Sexton for illegally funneling taxpayer dollars into his lavish estate and mistress or is it still more of a crime to be black in Tennessee?

I live in Tennessee. They are just fucking racist pieces of shit. And no that whole Sexton shit went nowhere, which sounds about white.

I mean DesJarlias keeps being sent back to Congress along with John McGroomemYoung Rose. Governor HVAC literally had the whole blowing millions on fake ass COVID tests swept under the rug.

So, yeah just more of the same privileged ass white men finding new ways to fuck over everyone else who doesn't tiptoe around their fragile ass egos.

The racism is so blatant. Idk how this isn’t a civil rights lawsuit already, the whole situation is utterly ridiculous.

He cannot afford $100 for a 5 terabyte external hard drive? LOL

As things stand, public approval ratings of the court have held steady at historic lows.

The damage from Fascist 45 has been tremendous, but at least the people are taking notice. And hopefully this will inspire positive change.

admiralteal ,

Our parents and teachers grew up under the Warren and Marshall courts.

These were hardly all good, but they were a rare time of stability, sanity, and defense of civil rights out of the courts. Which is a blip in the history.

On the whole, the SCOTUS has always been a force for evil. It has always leaned against civil rights and towards statism and fascism. Towards maintaining and enforcing the police state. The current state is returning to the norm, not an anomaly. But with so many of society's elders being raised on a reasonable court, they forget.

It is a 100% politically-appointed institution with zero oversight and lifetime terms. It's obviously a bad idea. Just another of myriad compromises in the founding of our nation to cater to regressive-thinking, anti-civil rights right wingers that have always been a major part of the American experiment.

Everyone should read Balls and Strikes and listen to the 5-4 Podcast. Especially the fucking law school professors that uncritically and dogmatically teach the mostly very, very bad SCOTUS case law. We need to get serious about fixing this bad institution if we want to have a future.

Bipta ,

Zero people in my life who didn't already notice years ago have noticed since. Not very encouraging.

He’s such a sleeze bag. Wish Anita Hill could’ve kept him off the bench.

SCOTUS is damaged for years & years to come. (⁠ノ⁠´⁠・⁠ω⁠・⁠)⁠ノ⁠ ⁠ミ⁠ ⁠┻⁠━⁠┻

And she was victimized because of this piece of judicial shit. Such a travesty, but unfortunately no surprise.

Well that’s just great. Now how do we walk back all the cases he weighed in on when he should have actually recused himself?

And yet a doctor can’t receive a pen from a pharmaceutical rep because of ethics. Amazing that these other professionals can’t simply do whatever they want.
