There is no more rule of law. Plan accordingly.
The cowardice of it being an unsigned letter is almost the most galling part. Sniveling authoritarian cowards
When no one signs, they all signed
Except those who dissented publicly, right? Pretty sure Sotomayor was pretty publicly pissed off at the rest of the court.
So many people here are always pushing this "they're all the same" bullshit and it's starting to get very fucking tired.
It is so goddamn disingenuous.
The voices of reason are becoming outweighed here.
Yeah so let's just ignore that they exist.
You misunderstood me, possibly because you were telling me to go fuck myself on another post. "Assaultpotato" is a voice of reason on this post. People read a news story about the Supreme Court staying an order and now want to impeach the whole Court?
I'm afraid the politics and news communities hosted on Lemmy servers are falling off the deep end.
It was one commenter and the following comments rebuking them are much more highly upvoted. It's maybe a bit early to stick a fork in it.

Well. Yeah?
They're powerless, they might as well not exist. The only purpose they serve is keeping even more fascists off the Court.
What a braindead take.
You say that, but majorities across the board are razor thin. Assuming there's still midterms a lot of this can be flipped.
The courts of course will be harder to fix
... but we were talking about the Courts?
In our system a large enough majority in congress can overrule a lot of what the courts are doing unless they go absolutely bonkers.
The court can say there's nothing the in the constitution that prevents "X", but congress with a large enough majority can pass a bill without the president's signature to expressly allow "X".
Our courts have not yet shown a willingness to go totally rouge and have voted against Trump several times this administration alone, but they always could go rouge I suppose. And of course they make shitty decisions like these.

Nothing will meaningfully improve until the rich fear for their lives
Cool. So if I join ICE, am I allowed to sneak up on random people and toss em in my van?
You don't even have to join. ICE wears plainclothes, drives unmarked vehicles, wears masks, and never shows their badge. Anyone can be ICE.
Their recruiters admire your ambition and will be in touch.
Well, brown people, yeah. I thought that was obvious.
Can we just scrap the Untied States and start over? This franchise needs a reboot
We have a constitution so old as to be a relic, antique. No well run democracy still uses a constitution that old, because they've made huge improvements in the past couple centuries. We should absolutely start from scratch.
Back to Britain
Clearly the peaceful protests are working!
I bet you’re not living up to your screen name at all you simp for assholes

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!
