Cite this when impeaching them, call out the corruption and emphasize that they unequivocally KNOW their decision is corrupt and unacceptable

Ah but you see, *Roberts* didn't change, it was the "original meaning" that changed, wink wink

The next time he’s up for re-election voters are gonna hammer him for this one

I do think the Senate should open up hearings into SCOTUS before the election. They may or may not get anything directly this term, but SCOTUS should be embarrassed and voters should be thinking about who they want appointing future justices.

Can’t SCOTUS just politely decline to attend?

“Writing for the Court, Chief Justice Roberts wrote that… no, Chief Justices are *not* bound by Congressional subpoena. In conclusion, too bad, so sad, indeed.”

Then hold a hearing with them in absentia. Invite them. Tell them they are welcome. Invite legal scholars to speak. Produce videos of them speaking at their confirmation hearings. Admit evidence. If they choose not to speak, then say "Let the record show that the Justice chose not to respond."

It just so happens that the law says he can do anything he wants, oh well

Crazy how people will lie and say literally anything to snag the lifetime appointment for godlike power w/ unlimited perks and zero accountability.

It’s a good thing our culture doesn’t actively reward sociopathy with power and money. [looks at American culture] Oh. Wait. Shit.

We already know they all lied under oath about abortion.

I don't think Roberts did, but for whatever reason later on, he has decided to put his stamp of approval on the right wing crazies' opinions.

what's stopping biden is himself because he simply would never do it. he's not capable of being the president we need right now, and he wasn't in 2016. but it's what we've been priced into

They were two of the most productive sessions of congress and responsible for countless positive reforms. Just read the wikipedia articles on those sessions for a summary.

Voted every election since I turned 18. I'm approaching 50. Voting never got anyone a damn thing.

so, uh, yes. But pay very close attention to what specific policy is being discussed here in that confirmation hearing

How did you dig this up? That’s pretty wild.

Yeah but he had his fingers crossed so it doesn't count

Maybe he's going senile. Maybe he failed his cognitive test. He probably just forgot. 🤷‍♀️ We have at least 5 liars on that court. And they don't care.

So... Perjury? That's impeachable, ya? Him and all the ones that swore up and down the wall that Roe is settled law, impeached for perjury!

He didn't say you couldn't kneecap the law.

Yeah I bet it’s keeping him up at night

that depends on what the definition of "fully" is

In a sick kinda way I have to admire the long con here.

A long con that started in the 80’s if not before.

Technically that statement is not in conflict if you modify the law, as they have done.
