    #Biden didn't just inherit an economy in tatters, but also:

    - a raging pandemic with no plan to rollout the vaccine
    - a severely understaffed military in Afghanistan with a deadline to pull out and half the country already overrun by the Taliban
    - a #CorruptSCOTUS and hundreds of dodgy Trump judges
    - a decimated Dept of Justice and Dept of State
    - zero handover from the prior admin

    If Dems retake the Senate, you can be sure the GOP will jam through two replacement SCOTUS justices on the way out.

    The top priority of Senate Republicans for decades has been to build the #CorruptSCOTUS

    The US Constitution already lays out the order of succession.

    Whereas SC law allows a temporary appointee until the next election.

    Of course, Trump, MAGA and the #CorruptSCOTUS have shown little respect for the Constitution, so who know what will happen.

    Of course, the Supreme Court only takes cases when they've come up though the federal courts - not when the POTUS asks them.

    Of course, with this #CorruptSCOTUS anything can happen

    "Originalism" is an absurd theory for constitutional law.

    "Intent" is inherently impossible to divine when legal text is the result of a group effort.

    It gives a blank cheque to the judge to cherrypick their data points in explaining their take on "intent". Worse, it quite literally abandons the cause of "justice" in favour of adherence to this selected view of "intent".

    To recap:

    America kept a 150 year old constitutional right and Trump still owes a $5m jury penalty

    ...meanwhile Trump can take direct command of "independent agencies" (exc The Fed), states can discriminate against trans people and corporations/the wealth can openly buy elections now.

    Yeah...democracy is in great shape.

    I full expect Trump wants to force out Thomas and Roberts to put in his own lackeys. If one/both stand down, expect McConnell to jam in replacements in Dec.

    And who would he appoint? Blanche, almost certainly. Ivanka, maybe?

    Who cares if Congress created specific agencies to operate independent of POTUS pressure.

    That's only relevant when a Dem is in power (specifically FDR). Now, we'll let a Republican do whatever he wants and justify it by saying he can be held accountable ... 4 years later at the election.

    Oh, by the way, House seats can now be gerrymandered for partisan outcome and the POTUS has immunity to do what he wants

    You're welcome, democracy 😁

    Of course, Trump doesn't plan to leave. We know this as fact, as he fought to stay once already.

    I was referring to the oligarchy behind the current authoritarianism. They don't plan to ever leave the WH. They've packed the #CorruptSCOTUS with their stooges and they'll keep putting their stooges in the WH - through a combination of dirty money and election manipulation.

    Genuine democracy was good while it lasted, let's say 1965-2010

    They don't ever plan to lose control of the White House.

    That's why they decided Citizens United and gutted VRA before doing this.

  25. #CorruptSCOTUS Hall of Shameful Decisions

    - Citizens United - corporations are people -> unlimited money in politics
    - Heller - gun ownership is an individual right -> bye to gun control
    - All the cases destroying Voting Rights Act -> bye democracy
    - Overturning Roe -> bye women's rights
    - Overturning Chevron -> bye Congressional regulation
    - Slaughter - POTUS can fire indep regulators -> bye independent civil service

    Viewed together, the insanity is obvious.

    The right thing... in a very narrow part of doing a massive wrong thing.

    Except for the Fed, the #CorruptSCOTUS has just destroyed the independence of every other "independent regulator".

    This is a very, very bad ruling. Only slightly less than the 100% worst possible decision they could have made.

  29. The #CorruptSCOTUS failed to rule on birthright citizenship...choosing to delay this no brainer until the last possible minute. Not a good sign.

    And now they gave Trump bad news on E Jean Carroll's $5m verdict. IMO, they would only do that to help deflect criticism when doing something really big that Trump wants.

    I'm very worried for birthright citizenship ...on any of the Civil War amendments.

    Sure, Fed is exempt. A wannabe dictator needs to move a bit more slowly to take over that 😂

    Of course they don't care.

    These are the same #CorruptSCOTUS that cherrypicked facts and fantasies to overturn Roe. They gutted a 100 year old NY gun law because it didn't reflect thinking 200 years ago.

    They are making it what ever crap allows the outcome they want

  37. Everyone hold onto your hats.

    It's almost Friday afternoon, almost time for the #CorruptSCOTUS to end #BirthrightCitizenship

    Big expansion of round ups and mass detention centers right after the World Cup.
