The Supreme Court Is a Joke. It’s Not Funnywww.rollingstone.com The justices accidentally, repeatedly referenced laughing gas in a disastrous ruling before declaring that judges know better than agency regulators.

And that’s the “tooth”

Timely meme👍

Big Judiciary power grab. Now which judge hips are elected and which are appointed. Plus we are basically the Soviet Union (60's-70's?) when they exchanged science for political power.

The US government has also become a Gerontocracy so also tracks with the 80s Soviet union.

Support the gerontocracy argument, please.

Consider that they may have decided to stay because of the orange ass clown and the attempted Russian takeover. bsky.app/profile/jbon...

Over a third of US senators are ages 70 & over. 56% are 65 & over. 69% are 60 & over. Average age of senators in the 118th Congress is 64.

(and for historical comparison, between 1919 and 1999 at least 50% of the senate was under 60)

And then there's the fact that most of them are rich...

Have you looked at Congress ever

@zigzagwanderer.bsky.social already put the stat out on Congress. Also that we have the two oldest candidates in American history running for president, the Supreme Court swings happened due to folks dying in office, etc

I'm sorry?

I was asking about Congress. I think others were too. For Whitehouse and Cabinet, you know Biden and Harris want next generation baton holders. But I do appreciate the added info. It shifts the perspective here. I think Congress stayed to fight trump and Russia.

Yes, the Congress stayed pretty much the same with a slight shift in both directions. And yes, I love how Crockett, Moskowitz,Frost and @robertgarcia.bsky.social are fighting. I LOVE it!

I love the picture and everyone in it. Caring, positive vibes.

Thanks for the Google. I'm livid that Moscow has a fucking confab with Trump.

Wait! I remember Frost. It's been a month since I heard his name.

I know Moskowitz. But don't know Frost or Crockett. Cool.

As is most of the world.

Nowhere to go but up.

“Judges are not experts in the field, and are not part of either political branch of government,” Justice John Paul Stevens wrote in 1984, explaining why they should play a limited role.

The Supreme Court weakens federal regulators, overturning decades-old Chevron decisionapnews.com The Supreme Court has upended a 40-year-old decision that made it easier for the federal government to regulate the environment, public health, workplace safety and consumer protections.

Court using a stupid wrong unexpert argument to justify giving courts decision power over experts is some dark irony shit.

The US is in serious trouble and I for one not laughing...😣😡

I concur

Nitrous oxide *is* *one* of the nitrogen oxides requiring control as a pollutant. Yes, the Court had it partially wrong, but so did Rolling Stone. Of course, only one of the two is trying to place itself in control of the USA's environmental policy.

No it is not. Nitrogen dioxide shown as NO2. Two oxygens. Makes air pollution. Nitrous oxide known as laughing gas, has the formula N2O. Two nitrogen This does not cause air pollution because it is a stable gas NO2 bonds breakwhich means it can combine with ozone to make smog.

Oh, you're right. I really should at least have checked before posting; it would have been easy enough to do. I was just so sure of my grasp of chemistry from those long-ago classes. Sorry, everyone.

Chevron was originally decided because justices can’t tell their gas from a hole in the ground.

These articles need to never stop. This court is a joke, forever and ever. These are barbarians coming to wreck our government; de-governwnce is their goal. Just on and on.

Big corporations calling in their RVs and luxury vacations. That’s all it is. The court was bought and paid for.

They need to be humiliated and mocked - make them a punch line.

I'm so glad I don't live in the States. We certainly have our warts & bumps here (biggest wart currently, being PP), but honestly! There's lots to love about the U.S., for sure, but man, the wrong folks seem to have the mics, these past years. If it wasn't so disgusting, it would be funny.

Abolish the Supreme Court.

Irony died with Stare Decisis. The case that resulted in “Chevron” was brought before SCOTUS during the RayGun reign by Neil Gorsuch’s mommy when she headed EPA cuz she thought her “experts” could stifle environmentalists. Neil voted to overturn one of mommy’s crowning achievements. R.I.P. mommy G.

One thing that is no laughing matter is that this court's softball pitches are being delivered to them over the plate by teams of hard right hurlers representing the work of think tanks bent on dismantling the U.S. Government bolt by bolt.

Righties fucking love activist judges, as long as they’re right-wing activist judges.

The irony in this will not be lost.😒

I am not laughing tho

Fixed the picture for ya!!

TFG doesn't have to win an election, his 6 SCJ r doing the work 4 him & Bannon & Proj '25. U have 6 pple controlling all pple, mkng decisions they know nothing about. They will take contraception & Mifepristone, will allow more air & water pollution . This court is the best thing 2 happen 2 repubs.

BOOTH J,., concurring

Yeaaaahhhh... They're sooooo much smarter than the departments that DO that thing! What a perfect self own!

We are going to laugh ourselves to death. 🥴 They've been watching too many Batman movies.
