  6. Graham Platner said: “If we held Supreme Court justices to the exact same standards we hold federal judges, there is a compelling case for the impeachment and removal of at least two. But to make that happen, we need to elect people to the Senate that want to wield power like that, who understand that it’s real and you can use it”:

  10. In the #Trump era, #JohnRoberts & the other conservative justices have repeatedly empowered the president through their #ShadowDocket rulings. By contrast, the papers reveal a court wielding those same powers to block #Obama. Justice Samuel A. #Alito Jr. warned that if the court failed to stop the president, its own “institutional legitimacy” would be threatened.

  15. Check this guy's credits, he's the real deal. "We’re not just in a constitutional crisis. We’re in a corruption crisis. And the Supreme Court isn’t the solution. It’s the heart of the problem."
    Gives steps, how to fight: 1) Stop calling SCOTUS neutral, or thinking they'll save us. 2) Stop calling Tr^mp judges conservative. 3) Tell #Congress to fight.

  20. The #JohnRoberts court has repeatedly gutted the #VRA & if it were to rule that it is unconstitutional for states to draw districts that allow voters of color to elect their candidates of choice that would essentially spell the death of the country’s most important #CivilRights #law. Based on his opinions in other major voting rights cases & his concurrence in the NY case, #Alito seems certain to kill the VRA outright or narrow it to the point of irrelevancy.

  21. Court watchers speculate that #Alito, because he has not authored an opinion from the court’s term last October, is writing the majority opinion in a hugely important case the court has yet to rule on concerning the constitutionality of the last remaining section of the #VotingRightsAct. If that’s the case, the #VRA — and by extension, the fate of American #democracy — will be in very, very bad shape.

  22. #Alito is essentially saying that districts drawn under the #VotingRightsAct or other federal & state laws to remedy centuries of racial #discrimination are as #racist as the #racism (including the legacy of #slavery & #JimCrow) they were meant to rectify.

  23. The majority did not explain its reasoning, but most concerning was the concurring opinion by Justice Samuel #Alito, in which he wrote that districts drawn “for the express purpose of ensuring that ‘minority voters’ are able to elect the candidate of their choice” represented “unadorned racial discrimination, an inherently ‘odious’ activity that violates the Fourteenth Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause except in the ‘most extraordinary case.’”
