SCOTUS: If you paid us with more money and showered us with gifts, we would have likely ruled in your favour instead.
Somehow I feel this headline could be much shorter, more concise. Let’s see…
SCOTUS SUCKS DON’S DICK AGAIN
Nice double alliteration.
SCOTUS GOBBLES DON’S SCROTUS.
Lawsuit against California should now be immediately thrown out.
“California must not be allowed to gerrymander their districts in favor of Democrats that close to the election.”
That one they’ll take up so they can rule against California.
If they rule against California, time to literally burn things down.
The time to burn things down has long passed.
I agree.
Let’s start with Governor Hot Wheels’ mansion. Preferably with him and all his cohorts inside.
As long as one of those cohorts is Ken “Piece of Shit” Paxton, I’m okay with that
The best Americans can do is an organized protest on a weekend that doesn’t affect the economy, ensuring that it can be safely ignored.
Exactly this. Excuses excuses “I have to work” or “I have family” or “I have medical debt” and their country is literally a fascist kakistocracy.

I’m not convinced USers are capable of standing up for themselves.
But won’t.
When do poor people get to stop following the rules? I don’t wanna pay taxes this year.
To the surprise of absolutely nobody.
Depressing but not surprising. Their corruption aside, the argument is that it’s not race based because it’s partisan gerrymandering… which is the official (and fucked up) reason for the maps. Partisan gerrymandering is legal, for some reason.
That said, race and politics are clearly intertwined so a bunch of black and brown folk are about to be disenfranchised. So long as the GOP remains the party of White Christian Nationalism, any partisan moves will continue to be racial ones inherently.
They said that, while the suit in question contained tons of direct evidence that it was, in fact, racially based.
True, that was one unique part about this one was the Texans said the quiet part out loud. Was obvious enough to the lower courts, anyway.
Illegitimate judges judge illegitimately.
I’d really only call one of them illegitimate (Goursch), unless you want to get in on other things like Clarence Thomas being a corrupt motherfucker who should be impeached and removed.
Founding fathers really had faith that bad actors would get impeached. Too many wolves in sheep’s clothing for that to happen though.
It’s way past time to get the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact to 270.
honest query: conservatives hate popular vote / ranked choice / anything that cleans up the absurdities of the electoral college. how the fuck do we pass something like that with half the states fighting everything?
So it doesn’t take half the states to pass it. It only takes enough states to make up half of the electoral votes. It could actually be done with as few as 12 states if those with the most electoral votes all agreed (though that requires Texas and Florida to join the compact). But even now, there are only 17 states and DC officially joined in the compact, yet that already makes up almost 39% of electoral votes. They will need some red or purple states to join too, to reach the number of course. There’s not enough electoral votes in all the solid blue states alone. Purple state Pennsylvania, and red states Kansas and South Carolina all have bills in committee to join. Were they all to pass, they’d have 45% of the electoral college in the compact.
It’s to the benefit of hard red states too though. It will make their needs more of a priority for campaigning presidents instead of only Swing States being pandered to. The Swing states are the only ones that have a vested interest in preserving the status quo. And it’s not like Trump wouldnt be president now if the compact was triggered now (unfortunately) so it’s silly to pretend that it would prevent conservative presidencies.
It doesn’t take half the states, just half the states worth of electoral votes - and yeah, getting texas and florida… not likely. it’s an awesome idea, but the hurdles are real.
It’s to the benefit of hard red states too though.
they’ve never really voted to their own benefits if they conflict with the gop’s mission. see: everything
2025 is WAY too Close to 2026!
-The Justice appointed AFTER people ALREADY Voted!
No way.
The best and worst thing about Texas is that it’s consistent, I’ll concede that. Consistently shitty.
No way.
