The U.S. should revisit if we need a supreme court anymore.
Or at least set term limits and have a lot more of them.
I’ll vote for anyone legally dismantling SCOTUS. Also if we can’t get rid of the supreme court can we at least move it to the northern most tip of alaska? Nowhere in the constitution does it say scotus has to be in DC.
The summit of Denali
Hell yeah now we’re talking. Hope they fucking enjoy their free RVs there.
Seekest thou the SCOTUS?
Now I want to play some skyrim.
Well, Trump has taught us that you can ignore the Supreme Court if your party controls Congress. So if there ever is another Democrat president with Democrat control of Congress, just revert all this and ignore whatever the SC says.
We should only be elevating Democrats who make it clear they are ready to play hardball.
We all know that he is not getting out of the white house peacefully
Fine by me.
He’s never giving up power.
Oh, yes he is. They all do eventually, and it it’s never nice.
Fuck Kim Davis
Good thing so many of us “protested” the election, what could possibly go wrong, right?
Don’t worry bro the files bro. Just release the files. /s
I honestly don’t know why people are still harping on this. what’s even the point? I know he’s on the files, you know he’s on the files, everyone knows. so why? do people honestly, firmly, believe that releasing said files will be an a-ha moment that will lead to his impeachment? no of course not. It’s such a stupid thing to be concerned about. Democrats file motions of impeachment against this asshole on a nearly weekly basis and it goes no where. like what’s the point? oh THIS time it will? no it won’t. Guy ignores the courts on a routine basis.
The point is his blatant hypocrisy. Just because his supporters don’t care means we can’t?
It was silly from the beginning. It was a distraction and either the bots were out in numbers or the crowd swallowed it bait hook and sinker.
Wait until they challenge the equality of man and woman in a marriage…
Stay tuned… interracial marriage will be on the chopping block.
Wait until Clarence Thomas comes home from work to his bulldog wife, and tell her that their marriage is officially null and void.
Then there will be a new opening on the Supreme Court.
I will laugh so fucking hard if America bends over while that happens. To be clear I bet they will but I hope I’m wrong and they finally grow a spine.
Yet another freedom that Yankees are happily throwing away lmao god it’s like watching an entire nation commit self harm hahah
Yeah the Yankees are always focusing on the big name superstars, and not putting enough effort into the fundamentals. They make too many errors, and they have unsuccessful results. It’s all about the money with them, there’s no real heart to them, and that’s why they lose.
Wait, we’re talking about baseball, right?
Ya made me laugh 😅 are they really a shit team tho? I don’t know the sport but it looks like a more exciting game than cricket
You speak as if all Americans are the same like a hive mind.
Ironically using such sweeping generalities makes you more aligned with the administration taking away our freedoms.
Don’t get mad at me yankee, go punch a cop
I thought I never had to hear about Kim Davis again. I never want to hear or think about that toad again. What a shame
Would they hear the case if a court clerk said she would no longer hand out marriages for anyone not religious as that is offensive to them?
Or maybe people who are left handed marrying people who are right handed? The abomination!
Where does this bullshit stop?
Government should NOT be interested in marriage. They simply should not care. The MOST they should do is have ready to made contracts if they want to manage divorce, child support, and death wealth distribution. Those are contracts. Contracts are made between consenting adults. The government either lets their citizens enter into contracts or not.
That’s what I’m talking about. Use their own bullshit against them. Refuse to serve/marry Christians and see how fast they say “not like that!”
This title is all wrong. It’s not “Breaking” news. It’s not being considered. It’s a done deal and nobody will do anything about it. The only thing to decide is when they do it. I guess that is the breaking part, that maybe is mow.
I am so ready to pack my shit and never come back if marriage equality falls.
Who would’ve thought having a partisan executive appoint a partisan judge and by approved by a partisan congress would result in a partisan Supreme Court! My vote is for using a system similar to Tennessee’s State Supreme Court. A commission of judges nominate a short list of candidates -> the governor appoints from the list -> after a year, there is a popular election on whether the judge should retain their seat.
For the Supreme Court, I’d modify it to: every federal judge elects the short list with Single Transferable Voting or Approval Voting -> President appoints one -> after a year, the populous has a retention vote. Also limited and staggered terms so appointments are distributed evenly across presidencies; must pass a background check & audit; criminal & civil convictions have mandatory prison time and fines are based off percentage of wealth.Of course neither party (and definitely not the oligarchs) are going to push for systemic changes that could curb their power, so we all need to be united with a General Strike. In the past these have lasted a few days to about a month; I expect making the constitutional changes needed to save our democracy will take longer and meet greater resistance, so Mutual Aid Networks will be crucial to support the strikers and keep essential services running. You can start by plugging in with the ones in your community, they are already everywhere.
Its crazy to think about what an uncle ruckus Clarence Thomas is.
I mean, his nephews and nieces must for sure call this man Uncle Tom.
What a piece of shit this guy has to be to be married to a white woman, and be striking down marriage equality.
Goddamnit if Kim Davis is going to be the one to undo this.
The GQP is the party of Regressives.
