And they’re openly malicious about it. It’s a little different, but the extremists on the court are unashamedly against substantive due process. Thomas and Alito are on record saying that death row inmates deserve to be killed by the state if they misfiled appeal paperwork or want to make a defective counsel defense (an otherwise perfectly legitimate defense), even if it is clear that new evidence would be raised that might prove their innocence.

You deserve to die, innocent person, because the court just doesn’t feel like figuring out the facts. Doesn’t get much more evil than that, but I’m sure they’ll try to outdo themselves.
