The only thing we can do is impose term limits. Democrats must take the house and senate and then the White House to restore integrity and accountability. Things that were accepted standards now must be laws because of the ugly truth about what Trump is doing and republicans are allowing.
The Supreme Court under John Roberts, Alito, Kavanaugh, Thomas, are so filthy and corrupt in destroying democracy it can not be overlooked any more. The system is not broken it is these people who have turned away from the constitution and have let the system down. They have committed crimes.
This Supreme Court will NEVER be accused of protecting and standing up for the Constitution. They’ve made up their own laws (Which is a violation of the Separation of Powers) for years. When the pendulum swings back the other way… They must be removed.
Seriously. I was thinking about this earlier…Why do we still have a Constitution? The rich are never held accountable, Congress refuses to defend the Constitution, the president violates it, and the Supreme Court never refers to it anymore when deciding a case. It’s only for us little people
Yes. Absolutely. It needs to have many more members.. 9 judges are in no way representative of the people. Especially when 5 of them are corrupt political hacks.
I know that sucks and it's neither right nor fair but if it's a delay it can be corrected still and some helps better than none otherwise we're going to have to take care of this ourselves not an easy or fun proposition but a reality that we might have to do
In a family court case, a retired judge advised me to write a certified letter to the judge in my case holding them responsible for my child's well being, which was being threatened. Apparently this removed a layer of immunity. Does this hold true for the justices on the Supreme Court?
We need leverage. If we the people write a formal, registered letter holding each justice personally responsible for the fallout of decisions, past and present, would this remove their immunity from prosecution?

I honestly don't understand why this hasn't happened already. What the fuck do Americans think is gonna happen, they'll magically start acting like a legitimate court out of the blue? Americans have SAT ON THEIR ASSES for YEARS while this court runs roughshod over the constitution and DONE NOTHING.
The right got it in their heads that they could turn the country into a white christian nationalist state. They started with the school boards. Talk about indoctrination!
They went local and took over entire states. Wanna live in Arkansas? Kansas? The fix is to start with taking back the schools.
Good point. 🇺🇸's have also sat on their butts while an authoritarian regime systematically overtook state govts 1 by 1 & have simply pretended it was all normal.
It's literally what Orbán & others have done in authoritarian states, but Americans (white mostly) just can't believe it'll happen to them.
But, I agree that it begins w/ education & that's precisely why the GOP has attacked it so furiously. They saw the writing on the wall that their ideology was dying from education & rather than ACCEPT a tolerant and compassionate world, they've sought to keep people ignorant and easily controllable.
Term limits for Supreme Court Justices.
Accountability for Supreme Court Justices who lie during confirmation, like on Roe v. Wade.
Hold them up against the Constitution, which would grant no one immunity.
Who advised tRump on the obscure 1789 Alien Enemies act? Roberts?

Horrifying - we can’t count on anyone in power or in the courts to stop this madness & descent into autocracy. It’s up to the people now who will have to be brave in our resistance.
I expected 4 of those 5 votes but was hoping Roberts would draw the line at using a fake emergency declaration, resurrecting the last remaining of the notorious "Alien and Sedition Laws", and falsely equating immigration with the hostile acts of an enemy nation to suspend our constitutional rights.
Not so “Supreme” after all. Imho, a “lowly” sort of court and not the SCOTUS the country and the Constitution need.
Our thanks to the 4 Justices in the minority. 😔
Another heinous & flagrantly unconstitutional decision by this #CorruptSCOTUS moves US one giant step closer to Fascism
America is facing the most real threat to our democracy since WWII
All I can think of is- The Pelican Brief
#VoteBlueToSaveDemocracy
I need to adjust my thinking for this new golden age of fascism because I truly thought the Supreme Court would do the unprejudiced thing.
We the certain people are f’ed.
Why do we even bother with lower courts anymore ? Everything seems to end up at SCOTUS anyway, which made up as it is, almost always makes the wrong decisions.
The weakest link in our institutional democracy is the Supreme Court. Not only should there b age/term limits, there should b a strict code of ethics & a process that allows 4 removal of members who violate that code. And the number of justices should match the number of circuit court judges - 13.
I've been saying this and trying to say it but nobody gives a care if I say it but that's exactly what I believe it is. Do you think that the scump Admin would actually pay millions of dollars to imprison people they hate? Didn't that airplane that took them down there fly over the ocean?...
this ruling allows the courts to deny habeas relief because the government can now argue the detainees do not have standing as they are not in u.s. jurisdiction.
This was their plan all along. Once someone is deported that's it, they can't get any process in the US. These men were kidnapped and sold to a foreign country.
This is them "winning". Whatever that means. They not only want to strip immigrants of any rights or due process they will do that to all of us. Oppression of your fellow countrymen doesn't seem Patriotic to me as MAGA would gaslight you about. No. It is Despotic. #France1789
Exactly. The disparity in Roberts’ responses to the two cases is telling in the extreme. A “ruling for the ages” vs. ever-so-carefully parsing and punting this back to lower courts.
Is he self-aware? Or is he self-deluded?

We already did that too I thought. If Congress won’t do anything, I don’t know what is left for me to do in Oregon other than make Oregon as independent from the feds and protected as possible.
We have never done a general strike. Idk what you are talking about. https://generalstrikeus.com read up and sign up. This will work. Because we workers of the world hold the keys to their money farm.
National strike and or boycott is the way to go. They can not arrest you for not working or not buying something. Nor can they even figure out who you are...
Americans one and all need to plan a trip on April 19th right to the steps of the Supreme Court. The march needs to surpass 1/2 million to protest the snuffing out of our own democracy’s precious right of Habeas Corpus or due process. If we don’t show unity in numbers, we will die as a dictatorship.
If there ever is another government again I hope the first thing that they do is fire all those corrupt SCOTUS judges!
Just do it, cite whatever you have to cite to make it happen, use their own tools of the President can whatever tf they want!
1) What is the difference between Trump deporting people to a foreign country and Hitler deporting people to Poland?
2) How many, if any, judges were tried at Nuremberg?
177 high ranking judges, industrialists, SS commanders and police commanders, military personnel, civil servants, and diplomats were tried at Nuremberg.
They ruled that the ACLU's lawsuit "was raised improperly in a Washington DC court and not in Texas." and
"The notice must be afforded within a reasonable time and in such a manner as will allow them to actually seek habeas relief...before such removal occurs,"
Sad that the scourt is also going the way of support for nationalis socialism or any other name you want to use for taking away the rights of the people in favor of supporting a dictatorial type of government. Our fore fathers must be rolling over in their graves in outrage and sadness
Funny (not ha ha) that chief Justice can come out and comment against impeaching justices without a robe on, but can deny a IS legal resident of a trial before deporting them!
Trump might have absolute immunity thanks to the corrupt court, but the rest of his cult doesn't. The family of the innocent man sent to El Salvador should be suing America and those responsible for 1 billion dollars. Let's see how a jury in civil court reacts
Those GOP judges must be getting some kind of kickback… can they go to jail with Trump for treason too…. Where are the laws for corrupt judges? Sweep the courts murica
He’s got SCOTUS in his pocket, a fan club that’ll defend him like he’s the last donut on Earth, and a militia ready to rumble at his beck and call. Congress? Just a ghost of its former self. Looks like it’s up to the citizens to step in and play referee in this wild clown shit storm administration.
SCOTUS along with POTUS along with the GOP Feckless Congress has turned our Beautiful America into a Banana Republic.
We are probably one of the most corrupt Countries now... oh how I miss OUR America and despise all the MAGAites, GOP Feckless Congress, the MOB Boss and his incompetent cabinent!
Honestly, I have to wonder how the Latinos for Trump feel, now that he's deported a Latino by accident and is refusing to bring him home even though theyve admitted it was an accident?

Unfortunately a lot of the times immigrants are really psychopathic assholes that are drawn by America's reputation as being a libertarian shit hole where they can live out their own Nazi fantasy.. As Trump said they aren't sending their best. Unfortunately, thats his support lol
I’m disgusted in America right now. Disgusted that our executive branch is corrupted, our congress is corrupted, and now our judicial system. We are being robbed of our democracy each and every day by evil, twisted, greedy folks who should be thrown out of power and incarcerated. A real tragedy.
America isn’t slipping into authoritarianism—it’s sleepwalking into it, while black robes, tyrants, and televangelist thugs turn democracy into a demolition derby.
They work for you. So why the hell are you still letting them burn it all down?
Been asking this for YEARS... been waiting on the American people to grow some balls and STAND UP, but I guess those yoga pants aren't gonna buy themselves and who will they gossip about White Lotus with if they're standing up to authoritarianism instead of watching every week?
My imagination didn't stretch far enough to see how one person one, with help of course, could do so much damage to so many people in such a short period of time.
This is my fear. Too many seem to be overly trusting in our institutions. Was accused of being rude here on BS last night because I disagreed with trusting in SCROTUS. We settled in polite exchange, but she still thinks they’re “following the Constitution.”
These so called republican "judges" are absolutely disgusting! We need more comprehensive rules for the supreme court 😤.! Most of them take bribes anyway!
The amount time I’ve spent while learning such things in the past months, while in the midst of a WTF panic or while seeking a hint of hope, has been a near full time job
As a kid, I always thought to hold certain positions you had to be moral and fair. I hadn't realized how dark and criminal higher ed people can be. There's nothing supreme about it.
We can protest in massive numbers. We can work tirelessly to control congress and elect only officials who will: 1) impeach the administration, 2) impeach the corrupt scotus, 3) amend the constitution to reform scotus so it can’t enable this again. If we survive this, we must prevent a repeat.
Surviving is the hard part. Their goal is to deport people who would vote against them because their ideas are dying ones. If they succeed we may never win (or maybe even have) another election again.
did you read about the many ways the Republicans are already canceling out peoples votes? Reputable journalist did an investigation into it finding huge numbers of legitimate voters had their votes canceled, including military personal, some high ranking non whites; GOP been doing this for years
Dems were out admiring their bellybuttons and chasing butterflies in their quest for diversion during the years gop worked STRATEGICALLY to overtake SC.
You can find more foresight in Walmart.
FULL CONTROL of *23 states* since 2010. Once in control, they immediately set out to rig the sys & GUARANTEE their *permanent* control.
Americans have pretended the GOP isn't an authoritarian REGIME for a LONG time & now they're paying the price and maybe worse, so are the immigrants they let down.
I think it's much easier for them to try to disenfranchise people in other ways, in larger numbers. Deportation, in addition to kicking out ppl whose skin color they dislike, is a threat to anyone they declare an enemy. They don't have to use it much, just enough to terrify people into compliance.
All of the above. They don't care what they do..they attack from all directions. Fixing maps, voter suppression, non certification of valid votes, Republican majorities taking over election counting instead of independent election officers, scaring people, with gun toting creeps at drop boxes, etc
Yep, that is another structural issue (money -> politics) with our democracy that needs fixing and which contributed significantly to the current democalypse.
That has made it so much worse than it was because so much dark money has been enabled. People like Musk are quietly stealing the power from the people by 'buying' votes. People luckily were alerted to it in Wisconsin, thank goodness
If we all survive...things have to change. A lot of us could see this coming, but the majority were asleep. It seems to them that it was a shock...but many of us have been warning them since 2016, and especially in 2020. But the 'checks and balances' were not used!!!
Yep. Ever since he and McConnell blocked Obama's rightful pick, then put in 2 Trump picks. The corrupt majority has destroyed People's rights ever since. It's disgusting!!!
Unfortunately American people are too cowardly but SCOTUS cannot be allowed to stand if they rule in favor of such thuggery... It will be our timidity not their thuggery that will destroy us.
This is exactly why when I see headlines like "Roberts rebukes trump" or some such nonsense like last week, I get angry about our media all over again. The Supreme Court is working actively to bring about Cristo fascism and any reporting suggesting the contrary is helping the process.
Roberts rebuked trump because trump started going after judges and it made roberts nervous. Scotus only cares about themselves. Then scotus went quiet. Pieces of garbage.
This is a route to deporting and imprisoning political opponents. They just have to line up a few MAGA judges in Texas and anyone can end up incarcerated in El Salvador. Watch your step Nancy Pelosi.
They won’t get there, they will make sure it’s this guy then some Internet, influencer commentator, then some former lowly politician that makes no fuss, then some controversial guy that worked for the government, that would be enough to put a cold shower on anyone else criticizing
Getting rid of food stamps and medicaid is bad enough, but now their food bill is also going to go up. There are going to be millions of starving children in the world’s richest country. It can’t be good.
I'm not a lawyer so explain it to me if I'm wrong. I thought the whole purpose for the alien enemies act was to just get them out of here, no due process. But that's not the case here.
I also thought the alien enemies act was more so to deport people from a country we are at war with...
.... which made sense at that time. I don't agree with it, but I see what the govt was thinking at the time. Trump is using it to deport to a prison. And I do not like the idea of sending anyone to that prison of no return. It's a death sentence. No one walks out alive.
Stand up fight back! The National Immigration Law Center states that even undocumented immigrants have certain basic rights under the U.S. Constitution.The Constitution also guarantees that no state shall deprive any person of "life, liberty, or property, without due process of law". https://www.nilc.org
I doubt the Supreme Court, or rather the republicans, took 6 minutes to decide whether they were going to help Donald. The rest of that six months was a direct effort to help Donald. You know it is true, because when hurrying helped him, they hurried.
I always had a great deal of respect for the Supreme Court. Ever since they gave the Presidency to George Bush instead of Al Gore, plus there obvious favoring Donald Trump on every single issue, including their most recent one, it’s completely impossible for me to have any respect for them!
all of these fuckers deserve impeachment, removal, disgrace, and imprisonmnet. they deserve to suffer tenfold the suffering they have inflicted on humanity. they all believe in hell, and if only it were real they could all burn in it.
The women objected. That men who consider themselves serious jurists are indulging a clearly lawless sadist is a stain that always be attached to their names.
As we try to arrest our.descent into autocracy, we err to expect SCOTUS to help. Insofar as it is in a position to, in fact, it will hasten the descent.
Just wondering who the current administration would replace them with. Probably wouldn't be the best at interpreting the law but would be great at doing as directed. Kind of like what's already there. 🤦
A bought and paid for Supreme Court is worse than a president in my opinion. They have actual importance, their word is litteraly law. A president is a bus driver he sits behind the wheel follows the route and runs everything by smarter people, this motherfucker has hijacked the bus.
This just makes me so angry, I’m sick and tired of every day seeing more right stripped away with nothing being done to stop them. Why does the Supreme Court want to create a dictatorship? Most of the R justices are gonna die in the next 10 years so why do they want to destroy our country now?
The first order of business after Democrats or Democratic Socialist (the latter being somewhat far fetched considering the lack of knowledge people have on Democratic Socialism)gain a super majority in Congress and the presidency is to pack the Supreme Court,which has been done before.Google.
Joe Manchin, Kyrsten Senema were two obstacles,but other than that he needed a Super Majority in Congress.He simply didn't have the votes in Congress . Biden was not a king.We are a Republic,with three branches of government, which is the Executive, Legislators(Senate and House of representatives),
You know they lied about set law and they would not be messing with set law. They are liars who just lie all bought and paid for by the rich. I often think we should show all and that means all these law breakers no mercy like they show the poor. New attitude America fight fire with fire.
This has become the face of our nation. It's official. We're so corrupt now that anyone and everyone can be disappeared off the streets, never to be seen again. The highest court in our nation stands behind our so-called president in these actions.
We just got kneecapped by the highest court in the land so we need a new plan. That's just as difficult as getting rid of our corrupt president. Going to be an uphill fight all the way and we need more numbers to truly get change to happen.
Um excuse me. White woman here. I've been shouting about all of this for YEARS. Trying to get stupid straight white Americans to wake up. I've been told repeatedly it's not that bad. Hope for the best. Please for the love of god don't claim "y'all caused this" because this white person DID NOT.
This whole psyop has been in play for over 40 years. Rethuglicons played the long game and won. So try looking a little more deeply into this mess than just blaming everyone who isn’t a black woman who spoke out about this since 2016.
Excuse me ? I myself have been screaming since 2015, Bernie, Sheldon Whitehouse, Warren, & many other historians, military pros, Constitutional & civil rights lawyers have been screaming for decades. Millions of us have listened, if blame you must, then look to Heritage Foundation & Citizens United
What we Americans are experiencing daily from political atrocities our Republican White House is inflicting on us daily is stressful, but, what the men who were kidnapped and sent to a Gulag prison without due process who are not, in fact, violent gang members must be going through is unimaginable.
I've cried every day over it. Everyone should be as upset as they would be if one of those men was their FRIEND. Because they very well could have been. Dehumanizing them as "violent gang members" is an effort to make you not care. Most of them were not gang members. And ALL of them were *human*.
