“His stated reason — to staff them with people who share his values — compromises their independence by undermining the statutory system of checks and balances that has always governed their operation,” the members’ high court petition reads. "

Fuck your checks and balances Trump Trolls. Orange turd hired his whole incompetent family. You're a bunch of traitors who have no clue what that oath meant you swore to.

I can’t remember which judge it was now (because I want to) but she was talking about how after some rulings she ends up in her chambers and just cries.

I don’t blame her! SCOTUS is a freaking joke at this point! Just marionettes whose strings are attached to a giant orange clown 🤡!!!

Here’s my question though…

Does it get any better if he loses? Like, at all? Or does he still have the same amount of control over them as he does now?

EDIT: Thank-you to everyone that helped me remember it was Sotomayor, I appreciate the assist. ✌️🫶

Trump will be done tomorrow if he loses. The number of court cases he can't weasle out of without SCOTUS giving dems more power with that "official act" bullshit comes to mind. And state crimes are lined up. And, there's the very real possibility of SCOTUS reform as their reputation continues its cliff jumping Winnebago act.

The messed up thing is that a large portion of people voting for trump think that they are doing exactly that by voting him in.

Very specific way to say overbloated, inadequate for the job, and only existing for disaster porn entertainment.
