Wait… pro-Trump SCOTUS voted aggainst POTUS? Weird… weird…
Let’s see how quickly they fold.
He always conflates the US and himself. He’s saying he is in danger if he doesn’t get what he wants.
Or possibly the US is in danger if he doesn’t get what he wants. Because he will make sure of it. Continue… to make sure of it…
hes really saying “putin will get mad at me if i dont this or that”
Well as long as everyone keeps giving him whatever he wants, eventually he’ll decide he’s got enough and it will all be fine and everything will go back to normal.
/s, just in case
Do not tempt Schumer.
Purposely so
Bet he’s going to expand the court and nominate 5 new judges.
Can someone ELI5 ? I thought Trump had the supreme court in his pocket, having appointed a majority of its members?
Trump appointed three out of nine justices. Three more were appointed by Republicans (Bush 1 and Bush 2), so a 2/3 majority of justices are considered conservative.
Judicial conservatism, however does not always align with political conservatism. Judicial conservatism tends to mean staying close to the original meaning of the text of the law. Some of Trump’s actions require creative interpretations of the law; in the case at hand, Trump wants to use a law meant to expel citizens of an enemy country during a war to deport immigrants he accuses of being members of gangs without allowing them to challenge that action in court.
Thomas and Alito dissented, arguing that a creative interpretation of the law should be allowed here; neither is a Trump appointee.
Thanks a lot for all the nuance, that’s great !
Its for the press, they’re trying to show a sense of control but they’ll fold shortly
Bet you a buffalo nickel that before the end of his tenure, he’s going to expand the court with ultra-loyalists, all but completely open about how they will ignore the law or always interpret it in the way that gives Trump what he wants.
I wonder if the chief justice will keep hanging his flag upside down and blaming his wife…
I think that was Alito, not Roberts.
It was
As always, Thomas and Alito have to demonstrate what pieces of crap they are.
I wonder how many more unfavorable rullings the court has to make before trump starts demanding they be arrested.
Will no one rid me of this turbulent priest?

he doesn’t even have to go that far. he could just tweet their home address and say they’re the “enemy of the people”
That’s the crazy thing. So many Republicans in congress have said they are afraid for their safety if they go against Trump. He’s got the government in a vice grip. They clearly don’t agree with how far he’s gone, they’ve said as much privately, but refuse to vote against him in bills bcz Trump followers at this point are crazy.

they should have thought of that before they signed on to supporting a rabid full-blown cult and their con man leader just to oWn TeH LiBs. again, fuck them. i’m not saying i hope they die, but i’m not not saying that either
That’s ok I’ll say it. I hope they all die
As expected. The attacks against the courts will only increase.
Hey so if they do send a bunch of white supremacists to the houses of SCOTUS we’re good to show up and start _____ing the bigots right?
Duck yes
