Jackson: "At least when the Court went off base in the past, it
left a record so posterity could see how it went wrong. See,
e.g., Korematsu v. United States, 323 U. S. 214 (1944)."

This is disgusting. A stain as big as Korematsu and that was shameful.

Is there not a presumption that officials will know that denying judicial review contradicts established law and precedent? In going ahead with this anyway can they not be charged with kidnapping?

I can't take this any longer. Our government has been bought. It no longer stands for our basic rights. This is a darker than than I imagined. We cannot last another 3.5 years.Our democracy and our economy will be gone.

I honestly do not give a shit what she says. Sitting in those rooms, laughing with her friends and pretending the institution is fine while writing stern dissents is as insulting as it was when Ginsberg did it, and the result is going to be the same. She'll die and be replaced by a 40 year old Nazi.
