[Scrivener7]

10. I am. I just read about the "state legislatures can decide elections" ruling they

[Just A Box Of Rain]

3. "But there is no difference between Democrats and Republicans."

What dumbfuckery!

8. Who needs Congress when we've got winger SCOTUS legislating from the bench?

Runamuck is an apt description of what the Taliban 6 are doing to the nation.

9. The Bannon Doctrine. Flood the zone with bullshit, they can't block it all.

11. One day the Roberts Court will be viewed with similar derision as the Taney Court.

That needs to be repeated, directly to Roberts' face, frequently.
