So let me get this straight: The so-called "originalists" on the Supreme Court have essentially given the U.S. president the power of monarchs. Just days before the 4th of July, mind you. The hypocrisy is staggering.

@rbreich And all the other GOP hypocrisy for the last 35 years was what? “Concerning?”

@rbreich almost seems as though the Biden admin should put those powers he just gained to good use.

But I'm aware it's far too much when asking a Dem authority to wield power. Even if the world is burning down.

@rbreich originalists when it fits their predetermined narrative, revisionists when it doesn’t. Staggering hypocrisy to say the least. Perverse, oligarchical political corruption at the highest levels to say the most.

@rbreich The "Originalists" haven't given everything to the President-they've reserved a little oversight for themselves to keep tabs on any Democratic President. But for Trump--anything goes.

Why does it seem like they always do their despicable acts around the 4th of July?

@rbreich At Robert’s confirmation hearing he clearly stated, “No one is above the law under our system and that includes the president. The president is fully bound by the law.” Almost as if he were lying to get the job…

@rbreich Roberts in 2005:

"I believe that no one is above the law under our system and that includes the president. The president is fully bound by the law.”

@rbreich Hypocrisy is a defining feature of fascism.
