The problem with institutionalists is that when the institutions fail, they’re forced to defend failed institutions (or stop being institutionalists, but that’s like a road to Damascus miracle)

what if instead of "packing" the justices were matched to the judicial districts of the usa? ya know, like it used to be? and then legally tie it to that number

The ACLU likes to pride itself on playing the game by the rules for both teams to ensure no one cheats, but we aren’t even in the game anymore, let alone overtime.

The court is packed by republicans. We need to UNPACK it. Maybe if people used that correct terminology it would help.

not these morons, they are beyond help

"Does the ACLU support a Court more favorable to its clients?" "No."

I mean, many of it's clients are Nazis, so...

David Cole thought it was a good idea to accept an invitation to FedSoc's 2022 convention (post Dobbs!). Severely bad judgment when it comes to dealing with the right wing legal movement

feels like that sort of position could cause... issues amongst the rank?

Do these people understand that they will be among the first against the wall?

And they say the far left is unrealistic and doesn't understand how our legal system actually works....

I used to occasionally donate to them, but then they did something I don't even remember what it was & that was it for me. I just got a fundraising email & deleted it without looking. It's a pity bc we need a powerful legal lobby.

I had a recurring donation to them for a while, but I canceled it because they started sending DAILY letters asking for more donations. Classic nonprofit trap where fundraising becomes more important than the actual work.

Can you please explain this to me in fighting games terms?

The ACLU has decided that throws are OP and not fair to use, so of course any opponent that knows how to block is going to beat them every time

How does this solve the problem of when conservatives gain power again? Who says they won't do the same thing in a never-ending tit for tat?

So because republicans could theoretically do something at an undefined future date, everyone else cannot do anything to stop them from instituting fascist bullshit. Great plan bud
This is what happens when one side thinks they’re playing checkers by the rules and the other side is playing No Rules Football!

It's more like the Democrats want to play by the rules of the game, but this is not the game. The game is over. This is the beat down in the parking lot after the game and the ref has joined in.
If court packing is normalized, when a Republican candidate for president wins, they will make Trump and his Supreme Court look like a toddler.

Cool Anyways, Trump and his Supreme Court are instituting fascist bullshit and the current tactic of “not expanding the SC whatsoever” is failing to stop it

More cooked that America somehow.

It just keeps fucking going. Why won't it stop fucking going? Another one, and another one, and another one, it just never fucking stops... I'm just watching the world fall apart and all I can do is stare, because there's just nothing better to do, anymore. ... Yes, I've been touching grass...

All the triangulation from the left is worthless and this demonstrates why. You can't win over the moderates by being absolute wimps.
