Ay yo fuck John Roberts for real. If you haven’t read that opinion yet, wow, it’s fall of the republic shit.

I expected it to be bad, and it fell significantly below even my very cynical expectations

It annoys me more than it should that it's pretending to be law

Like, if you want to say "fuck you Biden, Trump is allowed to do crimes and when he is elected he gets to be dictator, lolol, fuck you libs", just fucking write that. I don't need you to pretend it's rooted in any higher principle.

Yeah - it's conceptually corrupt, rather than just venal; it proves that law itself is meaningless as a real concept, rather than just Roberts himself

It proves that law is meaningless *to* Roberts, anyway.

Maybe none of them will care, but I sure would love to see them get as much shit in letters to editors in every major news outlet getting at least as many headlines as Biden's received for a debate performance & fallout (Dems in disarray stuff). And those should include liberal use of "corrupt."

Maybe Biden and the Dems should take advantage of the ruling before Shitler gets his turn.

Roberts is obviously furthering a right-wing Federalist Society project, but it's also reinforced by the widespread centrist pundit belief that Gerald Ford pardoning Nixon was therapeutic for America, as opposed to the beginning of a cycle of elite impunity that still persists today.

Yes. And. Those pretending its law have spent decades spewing sanctimonious, self aggrandizing, holier-than-thou pomposities about principles, original intent, values, and character. It ignites a white rage in me. Hopefully in others as well, because I will come back from death to vote this fall.

Whatever did happen to "text, history, tradition?" Or is that 'only when we want to restore 1789, and otherwise we'll just make it up?'

Though honestly not trying all that hard

I read the syllabus before I read any commentary and just kinda went… “no, I can’t be reading that right”… but I was

Who'da thunk that someone could pass Justice Taney (of Dred Scott infamy) in the competition of worst justice of all time? But John Roberts seems determined to try...
