Gun to my head, the worst and best justices

silkscreenfiend.bsky.social•287 days ago

It really does take a dedication to the artform to surpass Thomas at judicial shittiness.

tonyfischer.bsky.social•281 days ago

I agree that the next Supreme Court appointee will also agree with the Court’s jurisprudence in Trump v. Anderson

'Cept there's no prudence to Alito's ways

tom4okstate.bsky.social•287 days ago

Well at least mainstream outlets are doing a great job centering these stakes for Americans.

WaPo management seems to have no clue why their readership is plummeting 🤨

Princeton ftw.

(Sorry, I'll show myself out.)

You were superb tonight on Alex Wagner, both with your arguments and with the appropriate indignation. Thank you.

For any who haven’t seen..

This is THE whole election. Ask the women of America. The most criminal, corrupt president in history of the US (twice impeached, lost the popular vote) will have installed up to 5 justices-undue influence on the SCOTUS. DECADES of MAGA policy and lost freedom.

I’m pretty sure the left one is both options since old Joe has no appetite for court expansion and will just stand by and say Aw Shucks as the 2026 Congress impeaches him for no reason. Then they will install an Ouija board with the ghost of Robert E Lee as the newest Justice.

it won't matter

edwardtdean.org•281 days ago

What won't matter how?

unlabeledelder.bsky.social•281 days ago

7-2 or 6-3 or even 5-4 is a meaningless difference on Robert's activist SCOTUS.

edwardtdean.org•281 days ago

Okay, but these appointments accumulate over time, so each one very much matters in due course.

unlabeledelder.bsky.social•281 days ago

we need 4 new SCOTUS judges now.

The GOP would do it.

jacobcudney.bsky.social•281 days ago

I know I am replying late (blame a repost) but while you’re correct short term we can’t give up on the long game. If the anti-choice team can play the long game so can we. We can do it

unlabeledelder.bsky.social•281 days ago

we need 4 new SCOTUS judges, now.

or impeach em all, D and R. I'll be dead by the time some Dem long game plays out.

jacobcudney.bsky.social•281 days ago

Fair enough. I will be dead too. The answer now is expand the courts and make long term plans to not give 9 unelected people this political power

unlabeledelder.bsky.social•281 days ago

let's have them on the ballot, yes or no, what, every 12 years?

OR we can weight their "judicial opinions" by their confidence level...

maxellxlii.bsky.social•287 days ago

Alito ain’t retiring

frankypelvis.bsky.social•287 days ago

Actuary tables would suggest a fair chance of him and/or Thomas “retiring” for good within the next 4.5 years.

lezurko.bsky.social•281 days ago

Looking at Thomas he isn't looking in the peak of physical condition
