#Elections? What elections? The storyline could look like this. They will prove some fraud, you know that. How so, #MissKitty? They picked up the boxes, didn't they? So some rule that the #originalists will invent forward will give the Feds #state #election #oversight and total #recount #control.

A quotation from Molly Ivins

What’s really astounding about these brickheads who claim to be in touch with the original intent of the founders is (1) none of them seem to have read what the founders wrote, from Thomas Jefferson’s essays to Jamie Madison’s notes, and (2) you know damn well if they had been alive at the time of the American Revolution, they all would have been Tories.

While making light of his age, #President #JoeBiden should have said, "If any of the #originalists on #SCOTUS have any questions, they should come ask me.".

@DrJackBrown
NOT EVEN THE FOUNDERS WERE #ORIGINALISTS.

The term was coined in the late 20th century.

It’s a shibboleth for a complete lack of #FirstPrinciples.

@GottaLaff A clique of billionaires have shattered the legitimacy of American government at all levels. The next step is dictatorship and endless war and corruption.

Note to #originalists: this is not what Madison and Washington had mind.

“we wouldn’t be talking about corpus linguistics if there weren’t serious problems with judges cosplaying as linguists.”

@JeffDanielswpg

Drafters of the #2ndamendment, signatories of the #constitution were firing muskets, not AK's

one can shoot three projectiles in one minute
the other removes human limbs and can fire HUNDREDS of #bullets in 60 seconds

the #originalists interpretation is #shite
