“In every use of official power, the president is now a king above the law,” warned Justice Sonia Sotomayor. “With fear for our democracy, I dissent.”

    Cool, Biden should use those new get out of jail free cards to do a lot of shit to improve the lives of Americans and probibit Project 2025.

    The party about of rule of law just got told it’s rule of law to just do whatever as president, so go nuts. Pack the court. Forcibly remove the supreme Court. Ignore it.

    Hell the constitution never even said the Court has the right to interpret and block laws, that was due to the Court expanding its own power. We just went with it because Jefferson had his own Xanatos Gambit played on him.

    Come on Biden do something really cool with this, make them regret it.

      Have the GoP and the traitors on the supreme court taste the death penalty. Then repeal all this crap they put in place (no way to override the GoP all being dead after the fact. I’d go with banishment or any other number of things if it was guaranteed to work, but the only thing that can’t potentially be lifted after the fact is death)

        Murder and political persecution are the weapon of the enemy. We do not need it, we will not use it.

          Oh man lemme just persuade the fascists that I shouldn’t be killed. Lemme just vote out my neighbors and corrupt cops. Free market place of ideas, where the owners of the marketplace decide what’s neutral, what’s amoral, and what’s being sold.
