U.S. Supreme Court: Post-Ginsburg Edition

young thug judge just lapping these SCOTUS losers tbf

I can not imagine loving someone so much or needing someone around so much and MYSELF BEING SUCH A SHITHOG that i would willingly stay with that woman

Because they're both shithogs?

I know it’s just like - is there a competition within the household to see who can be more of a shithog?

John Denver's plane crashed why couldn't it have been theirs?

Interesting to read the National Review’s handwaving of the whole flag skirmish. I assume some version of this is what Fox is running with as well.

ah, so we've been misled

Good for a new dn though.

(The Bar Song) Flimsy

I can see the 'BIDEN GUILTY' headlines now

(meant for US politics thread)

looks like a paywall is blocking me from the National Review Baseball Crank guy take. I used to look at his nonsense on twitter.

Alas, Schumer won't pressure Durbin to hold a hearing or to subpoena anyone, and Durbin is waiting for a magical 60 seat Dem majority in the Senate and Dems regaining the House before having a vote on a tougher ethics bill.

Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Dick Durbin (D-Ill.) told reporters that Democrats will attempt to move the ethics bill, which he authored with Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.), via unanimous consent. A Durbin spokesperson said the UC request would happen on Wednesday.

how’s it hanging Pierre

and Durbin is waiting for a magical 60 seat Dem majority in the Senate and Dems regaining the House before having a vote on a tougher ethics bill.

Not to be That Guy but they wouldn't get to that now. I understand the symbolic gesture.

Another Alito tape from same event. He’s complaining about “well funded groups “ out to get the justices and mentions Pro Publica .

Sen. Lindsey Graham says he will block Democrats' effort to unanimously pass Supreme Court ethics bill
The South Carolina Republican’s objection means the bill won't be able to move forward under a unanimous consent request, which any senator can block.

From NBC News

On Tuesday, Dem reps Raskin and AOC held a round table with guest speakers including a law professor and the Rhode Island Dem Senator re Supreme Court corruption

Sheldon Whitehouse has been all over these fucks as well as the federalist society. Conservative Catholics really hate him

It truly stuns most of the world that these fucks don’t have 18-36 month long terms. But, hey, at least Biden and his really strong words will clip their wings a bit

You're right. He should arrest them.

I don’t know why people aren’t camped out on their fucking lawns 24/7.

where's your chair

I’ll pay for seat fillers.

my man

Are you busy blowing up Walmarts beamish

He’s doing secret stuff. Don’t blow up his spot.

Don’t have many Wal-Marts in the Lower Mainland, fortunately. I grew up in Los Angeles, which was VERY successful in preventing them from sprouting up for years

Speaking of Alito’s house I was genuinely surprised he lives in a normal suburban neighborhood and not on an estate or something with a gate

They're normal people.

All they want is to be left alone in their average home.

SCOTUS maintains access to mifepristone, rules that the parties bringing the suit didn't have standing.

“Try again”

As many have pointed out already the plaintiffs had no standing under, there never was any question about that. Kasczmaryk needs to be removed from office.

-under-

His legal malfeasance isn’t even hidden

took them a year and a half for this wasted attempt

xpost Boring otm

I agree with Alito the plaintiffs didn’t have standing. But in general it reads—see Kavanaugh—like they know their legitimacy hangs by a thread.

how could they not know this? they are constantly churning out decisions that ignore precedent and clear constitutional language, they know what they are doing

I think it's pretty clear Alito and Thomas could give a shit about legitimacy

It would be nice if this decision had any restraining effect at all on the Federalist Society kooks in the 5th Circuit. But that is probably hoping for too much.

Alito and Thomas are, like, "Look, don't embarrass us. Come back with a more legit case."

There's plausible deniability, and then there's what Kaczsmaryk, Alito, and Thomas do. In a functional country all three would be in impeachment proceedings.

“Try again when it’s not an election year”

If, and obvs this won't happen and i shouldn't even dare hope, Dems win pres election + senate + congress could they so something about this rampant supreme court?

they could if decorum didn't stop them

They could politely ask them to do better

put bear traps at Alito/Thomas houses

I doubt they're gay
