I wouldn't hold my breath. These 6 justices helped create the monster

Does it remain to be seen? Does it really? I think we all know whose pocket SCOTUS is in.

They won't

How to enforce when he's the boss of the Federal Marshals? Lawlessness on display

Sure they can. But will they?

They’ve been really quiet

Imagine thinking a body corrupted by bought-and-paid-for clowns like Harlan Crow’s sugarbaby Coke Can Clarence is a viable check on anything.

The merchant empire selected those justices. We the people have been enslaved by bankers and merchants. We the people are no longer represented by the government. We the people are NOT CORPORATIONS

Or if they'll just gargle his balls like they usually do.

They created this monster, now we can only pray they see the error in what they have done and fix it before it's too late.

He controls the Supreme Court so big deal

artshealinghearts.bsky.social•23 days ago

What difference does it make? They already said he can't be prosecuted for official acts. Do you really think he gives a damn what a court says?

Spoiler alert: they cannot.

We need ranked choice voting (RCV). Ranked choice voting reduces the liklihood of electing radical candidates.

I mean, let's be real, Trump almost certainly has something on each of the Justices he appointed. So they'll 100% rule in his favor. Thomas knows if they don't, he'll go to jail eventually.

It doesn't "remain to be seen." They won't. They'll give him unchecked power to do whatever he wants. The current cases are just delaying the end.
