    They’ve made many others that are blatantly rewriting the letter of the law to mean someone completely different just to give power to their despot

      Yeah, they’re definitely corrupt but the legal world is a weird one in which they sometimes do the right thing for legal reasons.

      They’ve ruled against Trump and made so many surprisingly sane decisions many times. It was so weird I started a favorites folder. (That’s all I could capture with a screen shot.)

      After they kicked Roe vs. Wade, yeah, seemed to get worse. But they owe Trump nothing. They have zero fear of him. FFS, Trump can’t fire the Chairman of the Federal Reserve Board, even though it’s well within his rights and he hates the fucker. Think he’ll openly fuck with SCOTUS?

        And yet they’ve gone out of their way to either avoid ruling on things they know they’d have to role against him on, it pull out bafflingly corrupt decisions out of thin air on many other issues. Them picking and choosing which laws they’re choosing to break isn’t that much of a relief
