A “rule for the ages“ is called "legislation." That’s not something courts can do. #BogusScotus #PresidentialImmunity #TrumpImmunity #NoKings

Enough with this Supreme corruption. It's time for the Attorney General to appoint a special counsel to look into these conflicts of interest, and for Senate Democrats to use their majority to subpoena Thomas. Even if he refuses to comply, they need to say enough is enough.

@QasimRashid The #BogusSCOTUS had to use a fabricated case to give white “Christians” the legal right to discriminate against gay and trans people. This corrupt Supreme Court doesn’t even care if a case is real. It is the Fox of jurisprudence.

It is bad enough that the Supreme Court’s far-right majority takes undisclosed gifts, has conflicts of interest, and operates without a code of ethics, and was appointed by Presidents who lost the popular vote — but now it even uses fabricated cases to take away civil rights and social justice in order to legalize discrimination. #SupremeCourt #BogusSCOTUS
