While we were all watching the Republican violent coup attempt to overthrow our republic, the SCOTUS executed a radical right wing bloodless coup, effective today.
They will determine what safety features planes have, they will determine what medical procedures you are allowed to have, they will determine what clear air is. They will determine how safe medicine is, what medicine you can take, how safe your food is.
They will determine who can vote (it’s ok to eliminate black voters by just saying your gerrymandering was done for political reasons, not racial reasons. Wink, wink.).
Want to murder a political opponent? Just call it an “official” act. Who determines if it’s “official”? The SCOTUS (just say it was for national security reasons, not political reasons. Wink, wink).
America has lost the bragging rights to “no man is above the law.”
The SCOTUS could care less about the Constitution. They’ve given up any pretense of pretending to use it a a guide.
We are becoming an oligarchy where bribing the SCOTUS is not only public and allowed, it is welcome.
Freedom of religion? Kiss that goodbye. You will study the Bible as determined by your school superintendent. The books you read determined by right wing activists. Financial restrictions? Ha!
Unless you are an oligarch, you will rue this day, even right wingers. They no longer need their obsequious base and will hurt them as long as the oligarchs get richer.
As Justice Jackson said, this is a 5-alarm fire.
Ben Franklin was right. Sadly, we couldn’t keep it.

The murderous president would depend on the court agreeing the murder was an official act, an outcome I suggest is doubtful to the point of non existent. Grow up you guys....

They’re having a good old fashioned weepy wallow over all this just like a bunch of teary eyed middle school girls who just found out that Taylor Swift is going to the rival town and not theirs.

Note also that these same guys whining about the Supreme Court's whacking of executive power...
...are also whining about the Roberts court somehow granting excessive power.
libs. Cray-cray to the core.

I didn’t hear the left crying when the Supreme Court struck down KingJoe’s signature student loan forgiveness program, yet KingJoe found ways to cancel more than $48 billion in debt.

Nope. What they're really doing is projecting their inner desires onto a theoretical Trump presidency. You're seeing this up and down the media also (who really want Biden to send out the Army to arrest Republicans).
