Today I learned that, since April, the Supreme Court of the United States has sided with Trump in all 15 rulings it has issued on the President’s emergency requests. Of those 15 rulings, the court has only written 3 majority opinions. 7 have come with no explanation at all.

I don’t have to convince anyone here of what’s going on in America, obvs. I just wanted to share because this fact surprised me. I didn’t realize that they weren’t even justifying their decisions, which normally they do.

      Turtle man was going to stack the court one way or another, but she didn’t help.

        That’s the spirit.

        Don’t fight back because you’ve already accepted defeat.

        You’re why republicans keep winning and the working class keeps losing.

      Even if she had retired on the first day of his second term, turtleboi would have found a way to burn the clock down somehow. I will never underestimate the amount of sketchy back room bullshit he will pull to fuck things up.
