SCOTUS dragging its feet on a decision about Trump’s ludicrous immunity claim is a stain on the court that cannot be washed out. It will be written and talked about for centuries to come. Shame on John Roberts and the Right-wing justices.
SCOTUS dragging their feet on a decision about Trump’s ludicrous immunity claim is a stain on the court that cannot be washed out. It will be written and talked about for centuries to come. Shame on John Roberts and the Right-wing justices.
Eric Segall warns that with the current Supreme Court, there's a constitutional apocalypse on the horizon:
"Since Justice Kennedy retired and Justice Ginsburg passed away, the Roberts Court has been on a conservative rampage, overturning Roe, turning the Second Amendment into a super-charged destroyer of reasonable gun reform," (continued in /2)
#SCOTUS is “…far behind in issuing rulings for cases heard since the start of the term in Oct. The #court has announced just 5 decisions, leaving 92% of cases to be resolved b4 the term ends in late Jun or early Jul.
“…the court’s backlog represents the slowest pace of any term in the tenure of CJ #JohnRoberts. By Mar1 of the ‘05 term, the court had issued rulings in >⅓ of its cases. That dropped to 21% by this point in the ‘20 term. This yr, it is at 8%.”
remember when early political bloggers of what y'all now call the #netroots, protested both the appointments of #JohnRoberts and #SamuelAlito to the bench?
i even co-wrote a statement for the #feminist blogger network where we were very clear eyed about Samuel Alito's history of targeting not just women in his decisions but girls and women of color.
this is one of those #ToldyaSo moments i detest saying, but told ya so
