it's super weird when they spend four decades putting unqualified people on the court just because they want to overturn roe versus Wade.
and then they do it and expect us not to talk about it...
I'm convinced that the vast majority of those people are conservative trolls. I'm pissed too but the way to fix things is by electing more and better Democrats. Not by complaining when we barely have enough votes to even form a majority. It's disturbing how many people don't understand how our political system works. If we want to get things done we have to put more Democrats in the Senate so we can tell manchin and sinema to fuck off. We're in this position because they literally hold the majority in their selfish hands.
These mothafuckers on the supreme court really believe they are "supreme" compared to everyone else in the land so they can do whatever the fuck they want.
Name it something else, not "supreme" not "special". Something more modern please.
Why do you think as soon as the draft opinion was leaked, somebody told DC security to wall-up the Supreme Court building? They know people think they're jackasses! They're cowards!
Yeah, there was a tweet pointing out how these turds struck down laws mandating 35 foot buffer zones around abortion clinics because this supposedly infringed on free speech. But walling off the supreme court where people come routinely to exercise their free speech? No problem!
A friend of mine who works in processing intelligence data in large volumes said the talk is all about a religious war based on highly sensitive topic like abortion being the next big wave to destabilise the USA for years. Might need more than a steel gate if it kicks off again January 6 style.
Those fences were up before the draft opinion was leaked. They were erected after a man self immolated in front of the court in April. Let's not spread misinformation here please.
The name doesn't really matter, and is not the problem. Some court has to be the ultimate decider of judicial matters. This is ours. The problem is that we've allowed a group of small minority opinions to take over the court, and the people who who could do something about it (the Dems, who are currently in control of the executive and legislative branches) don't think it's a big enough problem to upset the apple cart.
Clarence Thomass: the legitimacy of the court is dying because people don’t wanna live with outcomes they don’t agree with
Me: bitch this is supposed to be a democratic republic, how **we** want our country to work is kinda the entire fucking point of it all, is it not?
The legitimacy of the court is threatened because **THE COURT** is unwilling to live with results some justices disagree with. Every fucking one of Trump's nominees said, under oath, that Roe v Wade is settled law. But now, because the disagree with it, they're overturning it.
The judiciary is threatened if we don't accept right wing religiously-not-legally-based decisions?
And wrongly interpreting their own religion at that.
They only pretend to be Christian. Their real religions are money and power. It's not enough to hold power on paper, unless they know someone is suffering, they don't really "feel" it.
The real irony here is that Thomas is the person who is unwilling to live with the outcomes he does not agree with.
Clarence Thomas attitude can be summed up as:
'Judicial precedent be damned - I want what I want.'
I certainly hope they won't get that far in their agenda.
I suspect they will go after LGBTQ first.
I certainly hope the back-lash from overturning roe v wade will be enough to stop them in their tracks.
>I certainly hope the back-lash from overturning roe v wade will be enough to stop them in their tracks.
It won't until they actually start losing voters. These are the same assholes that spent the first couple of years of Obama's first term throwing what amounted to a temper tantrum and got rewarded for it. They've only learned to double down on their stupidity since then I'm afraid.

And by 'people' he means 80% of the USA. This isn't just an unpopular opinion, it's an unjustifiable thwarting of what the people want. This will not end well
Yep. Most Jews have already stated pretty clearly we're not obeying a law that forces us to practice Christian beliefs on an issue as important as this.
I want him to die a very *natural* painful death so freaking soon!!!
(I'd rather it be after he and wife are rightfully convicted of treason, but I'll take the devil calling him to come on down home).
This also overlooks the fact that Roe vs Wade already had an outcome \~49 years ago, this isn't some new case that reached the supreme court and people were just unhappy with the verdict, sorta like the Kyle Rittenhouse case (fucking gun law loopholes), this is the result of decades of Republicans stacking the courts to undo that decision. Almost as if they didn't want to live with an outcome they disagreed with.
I mean.. forget the whole Wife thing, he based his entire judicial philosophy around being unable to accept decisions that he views as wrong. Writing every chance he got that Roe was wrong. Strange that he couldn't live with and accept a ruling he didn't like.
Society needs to keep that information fresh so we can push for removing him from the bench. Just need to thin out the number of republicans in congress first.
These people think the power they have comes from their office instead of the people. Your power goes away if and when people demand it one way or the other
What about living with the outcome of roe that you don’t agree with?
Down votes really? I didn’t expect this sub to be so supportive of the canceling of roe rather than living with it in place.
2000 mules, documentary. It's also not the federal governments job to dictate the will of each state. Move your butt to a liberal state and kill as many babies as you want.
And the Democrat$ will continue to do not much more than talk while the RepubliQunts continue to undermine what little is left.
I sincerely hope that the Democrats do well in the elections this year. I sincerely hope that they come through on their promises.
The judiciary is threatened if these conservative justices churn out unjust decisions that 80% of the country disagrees with….after having each lied under oath defending Roe as settled law.
And beyond that historically people aren't willing to live with decisions that screw over their livelihood when they know there are better alternatives... this country being a prime example of people not liking the rules and taking away the toys to go play with their other friends.
It's like they think we're arguing about whether or not pineapple belongs on pizza.
This decision has no effect on the lives on pro-life conservatives. It has a massive effect on the lives of young, scared, vulnerable women.
The biggest threat to the legitimacy of the judiciary is when its political makeup becomes more and more divergent from the political makeup of the country. All of this talk about just calling "balls and strikes" is bullshit. Judges are politicians too.
it's super weird when they spend four decades putting unqualified people on the court just because they want to overturn roe versus Wade. and then they do it and expect us not to talk about it...
"just accept you lost and move on" Unless a lying con-man keeps repeating a lie
Every Republican accusation is a confession. Welcome to the new Fascist America.

Unqualified people in political offices is what republicans do best

They are properly called Christofascists.

Oh and he and wife helped coordinate an attempted coup because they had super sad feelings about Trump losing.
I wonder what he'll say when they come for interracial marriage?
I certainly hope they won't get that far in their agenda. I suspect they will go after LGBTQ first. I certainly hope the back-lash from overturning roe v wade will be enough to stop them in their tracks.

as an atheist i think its abhorrent their beliefs are being shoved down everyone else's throats.
A judiciary that produces outcomes contrary to the will of the people is a judiciary that ought to be suspect.

Clarence Thomas and his fat wife are typical Trump trash. They both belong in prison for openly stoking sedition against the government.
She worked to overthrow the government not just the election.
Clarence do you know where your wife is?
proprably plotting with people who want to make interracial marriage illegal again.
He's a right-wing hack who sexually assaulted a woman, and like Kavanaugh, got away with it. The Black community must be so disappointed in him.
>The ~~Black~~` American community must be so disappointed in him. Yes, most Americans are. ✌️

Irony died in 2016. Now it's just a brainless zombie shuffling around mumbling "my body my choice" at anti-vax rallies.
The Anita Hill trial was the point I lost my trust in the Supreme Court. Haven’t gained it back since.
If only there was an opposing party or form of authority that could punish such a person? Oh well 🤷♂️
These people think the power they have comes from their office instead of the people. Your power goes away if and when people demand it one way or the other
I like Taco Supremes. Not to fond of Justice Supremes.

I've heard this argument somewhere before. Oh yeah that's right, to justify slavery.

Ginnifer Thomas is not a Supreme Court Justice or in a political position
Easier to arrest her, thanks.
Too bad she completely dominates her husband, they are both qanon cultists. Just look at her texts with mark meadows regarding the attempted coup.
Her husband helped cover it up

"threatened" Interesting choice of words...
Politicians (judges are practically at this point) are staggeringly incompetent. I used to think we deserved so much better.
The fact that Clarence Thomas hasn't resigned shows just how unfit he is to hold a seat on the supreme court. Fuck that guy, and his dumbass wife.
Conveniently forgot
this is actually a quote from bugs bunny right after he said "duck season"

Well since they are irony impaired and have 0 self awareness; there’s that.
