      @@PaulaMion No.. Once you put on that SCOTUS robe then theres no way back. And there shouldnt be. I know, the reason why is at this point borderline paradoxal, but its still valid, and we shouldnt throw away 200 years tradition away in less than a generation. But we have to make 100 % the SCOTUS cant be tempted or bullied to make decisions. They cant be in a position where where a ruling is affected by them beiing promised a job position after end service, we cant allow a situation where they might rule on something that will affect their own future busines ventures or w/e.
      - SCOTUS have to be untouchble.
      Yes. I know. Theyre not excactly doing good. They are affected by outside "forces", trends and money. They have been groomed and placed by the GOP, and it sucks. Bigtime - And I agree something HAS to be done. But we could start in the low end so to speak.
      Could change the legislation so the parties take turn when it comes to appointing them. Could change the laws so they SCOTUS be punished if they dont keep their words from the vetting, could change the laws so they can be punished or removed if it turns out theyve lied during the vetting..
      Theres a lot we can do before we destroy something that could be good, and have been good for centuries. This time we live in is a fluke. Its not supposed to be like this. But the GOP and their manipulative narrative is by design. Its designed by The Media Research Center and/or all its branches and offshooting, its by design by Rupert Murdoch and the Koch brothers.
      Its a design thats driven by Big Money. And theyre so good at it that people think that free education and universal healthcare are bad things.
      we HAVE to change the narrative. And it starts in the schools, in the religious place of worship, it starts on social medias and books, new papers and even movies.
      We have to advocate for things like free high quality education for all. Its our only chance. only when people are able to think for themself will they be able to see through the BS.
      We need to protect the institutions, but we dont have to tear them down in the process

      It is not a matter of the 1st Amendment. It's that SCOTUS Justices are *supposed* to be impartial and their job is to uphold the law and the Constitution. Can we agree that the peaceful transfer of presidential power falls under both these categories?
      And if a SCOTUS Justice finds he/she cannot uphold their duty, has a conflict of interest, or if there is the appearance of a conflict of interest, that Justice is supposed to recuse themselves from connected cases. That is in the Constitution.
      Alito and Thomas have both flatly refused to recuse themselves despite clear conflict of interest and appearance of conflict of interest. That is a violation of their oath and a dereliction of their duty.

How are you expecting a Supreme Court justice to make sober rulings on issues when they have clear and obvious biases? You apparently don't understand how this is supposed to work, and I am not going to waste any more of my time trying to explain it to you...feel free to make yourself look stupid by trying to argue in favor of this behavior.

      It comes out now because they are digging for dirt on justices that they dont agree with. The only chance they have to jail trump depends on there decision on presidential immunity. Looks like they are trying to paint a picture before the decision. Most people here wont agree with me thou lol😂

      It's true...when significant issues come before the scotus that have political implications. Roe, gun control, election question the media target justices they know that are prone to take positions that are constitutional text based . They do it every time any hot button issue comes before the court.

      @billhuff131 married over 30 years, and yes, over matters I feel are important, she supports me to the last, and vice-versa. Of course, that helps explain why we have been married 30+ years where so many others fail.

      As long as the flag is not permanently attached to the pole, it is not difficult to flip over and fly it upside down.
      This is distinct from some of the flags seen in this video, where printed text made it clear the flags were designed to be flown upside down.

    In the late 50s & 60s to "run it up a flagpole and see who salutes" meant to tentatively present an idea & see whether it receives a favorable reception. The Alito household used political rhetoric to publicly signal their ideas; the gesture is a speech act.
