Shit's real rough in America right now.

Now it's a hard right majority in the court for a minority of views. Incredibly undemocratic.

Apart from the 3 of them that weren't sane enough. (Moore vs. Harper, look it up, I promise I am not exaggerating with the above description) But... yeah, this is rough. Sadly this kind of shit is going to be the legacy of Trump (well, Republicans in general) and it's not going to get any better for a long time.

Really it is post 2016 when things went crazy conservative in Supreme Court...in past there was always some sort of a balance!!! During Trump presidential there were 3 turns in Supreme Court, more than any president since Nixon (not counting Reagan since one of his appointment was to elevate a sitting associate justice to Chief Justice of the United States).

The owls are not what they seem Pronouns: He/him Joined: 11 July 2009 Posts: 37,315 User: 9,232	Disgraceful, apart from being so archaic it hurts, this isn't even a vote winner, it's not exactly increasing the Republican's popularity?! (At least going by how I remember it going for any Republican apart from Trump) if they use this complete non-case (and a fabricated one at that) to back up a rule change, I dread to think what they'll try next... Land of the free, world's greatest democracy etc. in action right? The Dems really missed a trick not packing the courts when Obama was in power.

But in the here and now, for such regressive, authoritarian crap being passed by Supreme Court during a Democrat presidency must be stopped any way how.
