An immunocompromised person in my family got COVID for the first time, AT THE HOSPITAL because they stopped requiring ANY PRECAUTIONS. No masks, no nothing.

They can't avoid the hospital so that means they'll just have to roll the dice each time they go?

What a cruel world.

Immunocompromised means the vaccine doesn't work as well. So what the current US policy says is equivalent to "you're on your own" good luck! 😡😡😡

The World Health Network is collecting these stories in preparation for outreach to journalists and lawyers. Plese share your story with them.

My partner was infected with Covid by doctor's offices. Twice. I've been pushing on this issue for over a year now. It's systematic medical malpractice.

But remember, the US gets extremely poor military value for money -- much of that money is extracted by thieving military contractor CEOs for their Vail skiing vacations and never delivers any useful military equipment

Of course is spread by and you can stop infection with or respirator masks.

Which also stop . And . And

Are we really not going to hear anyone in media say anything about that? Really? REALLY?

A lot of people claimed that LLMs were making them 10x more productive, right? So I guess we should expect some pretty amazing things pretty soon. Can't wait to see what they all come up with.

I do believe LLMs have made the Russian troll farms which spread incoherent disinformation 10x more productive

Let me get this straight...

Students getting relief from onerous debt is unconstitutional.

But justices secretly getting hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars in gifts, vacations, and free housing and education for their family members is just fine.

Hello?

neroden,

@rbreich The Constitution says

"The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour,"

It does not say "for life". It does not say "until impeached". It does not even say "can be removed for bad behaviour".

It's self-executing.

Alito and Thomas should be arrested for accepting bribes immediately.

As of right now, they ARE NOT JUDGES Constitutionally speaking, so let's stop pretending they are. The pretense is the problem.

    We need a permanent reform. Congress needs to pass implementing legislation for the "good behaviour" clause.

    "Judges, both of the supreme and inferior courts, shall hold their offices during good behaviour..."

    Congress needs to pass a binding ethics code defining good behavior and create a special court solely for ethics complaints.

    Then the special court will find that the bribe-taking Alito and Thomas are not judges.

    No more bribed judges.

    neroden,

    @Teri_Kanefield @jonberger @RadicalRuss Congress absolutely can pass a law limiting the terms of SCOTUS.

    "Serving on the Supreme Court for more than XXX years shall be considered bad behaviour. In accordance with the US Constitution, federal judges shall hold their offices only during good behaviour. The supreme court shall have no jurisdiction to hear lawsuits alleging that this law is unconstitutional."

    Simple. Works. Unstoppable. But CONGRESS has to do it.

    neroden,

    @staidwinnow @Teri_Kanefield

    Congress absolutely can create binding ethics rules for SCOTUS, using the "good behaviour" clause of the Constitution.

    Congress can set up a special court to hear ethics complaints (no appeals to SCOTUS, using the "exceptions" clause).

    They can even set up term limits, using the good behaviour clause.

    This is all very clearly Constitutional -- go read the Constitution.

    But Congress has to WANT to do it. That's the problem.

    neroden,

    @Teri_Kanefield

    Article III section 2

    " In all the other Cases before mentioned, the supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction, both as to Law and Fact, with such Exceptions, and under such Regulations as the Congress shall make."

    Their appellate jurisdiction is entirely subject to Congressional regulation. (original-jurisdiction cases are very rare now)

    neroden,

    @Teri_Kanefield

    "The supreme court shall lack jurisdiction to hear any appeals while any person currently engaged in bad behavior remains on it."

    There's a dozen ways to do this if Congress wants to TRY.

    The problem isn't legal. The problem is the willingness of Congress to act.

    Alito and Thomas confessed to BRIBES (obvious bad behavior), the Constitution says they're not judges, but Congress refuses to act.

    Brilliant system we've got here. A racist game show host flukes his way into the presidency by losing the popular vote by three million and so he gets to install three Supreme Court justices and they get to un-do the last 50 years of legislation and jurisprudence. Wow, such popular mandate, very democracy.

    neroden,

    @memory Has nothing to do with the law or the Constitution, either. The Constitution says:

    "Judges, both of the supreme and inferior courts, shall hold their offices during good behaviour."

    This is written as a self-executing provision.

    Constitutionally, Thomas and Alito are not judges -- they've actually confessed to taking bribes. Why does Biden pretend that they're judges, rather than arresting them for their crimes?

    neroden,

    @memory The people who wrote the Constitution were lawyers. They could have said "Judges shall hold their offices until impeached". They didn't. They could have said "Judges shall hold their offices until found guilty of bad behavior." They didn't.

    They knew what they wrote. "shall hold their offices during good behaviour". It's self-executing.

    Thomas and Alito aren't judges, Constitutionally. People are just pretending that they are for some reason.

    I don't know what to tell you guys. We have to expand the Court. If we don't expand the Court, no liberal policy will be allowed to exist for the rest of our lives. That's why Republicans stole the court, that's why rich people pay for justices.
    Govern yourselves accordingly.

    neroden,

    @GottaLaff

    Well, if we had a sane Congress and President, Congress would simply pass binding ethics rules and the FBI would arrest the fake judges for taking bribes.

    "Judges, both of the supreme and inferior courts, shall hold their offices DURING GOOD BEHAVIOUR" -- U S Constitution

    Constitutionally, Thomas and Alito are not judges. Why do Congressional Democrats and Biden insist on pretending that they are judges? THAT IS THE PROBLEM.

    neroden,

    @GottaLaff @emptywheel

    Legally, this isn't a court ruling and other courts should simply treat it as a nonbinding "advisory opinion". Which other courts CAN DO.

    Why do other courts pretend that fake cases ruled on by fake judges are real? They ignore the Constitution to do so, as well as ignoring justice. It's collective delusion.

    @RL_Dane @geerlingguy Codeberg does not, in fact, have some of the most useful Github features (mostly visualizations and automated testing scripts). I'm sure it'll get there, but not yet.
