I'm shocked this didn't happen earlier.
I fully expected Trump would force out 1-2 #SCOTUS judges - even extremists like Alito - to put in his own preferred lackeys.
With midterms looking bad, I would not be surprised by a sudden rush to replace Alito (and probably Thomas)

In yet another autocratic move, Trump plans to attend the #CorruptSCOTUS hearing on birthright citizenship *in person* today.
Like his plan to attend the Electoral Count on Jan 6, 2021 in person, it's intended to apply maximum pressure on his GOP lackeys.
We would never have a Trump second presidency without the #CorruptSCOTUS
- Citizens United
- destroying VRA
- tanking emoluments
- blocking CO from banning him on the ballot
- immunity
Every one a gift to authoritarianism

Of course they are. Restricting voting rights has been CJ Roberts's primary mission for decades.
Another reminder that the #CorruptSCOTUS is totally Team MAGA
Blocking a lower court ruling and screwing voters with another unsigned emergency docket.
But with the three liberal judges dissenting, we all know what happened here

They took the bold judicial decision that a law that never mentioned "tariffs" does not give Trump the unilateral power to set tariffs.
Hardly groundbreaking. But this #CorruptSCOTUS can still surprise.
I'm stunned the #CorruptSCOTUS made a sensible decision.
Sure, they ruled Biden couldn't waive student debt (despite an Act of Congress for that point). But I never thought they'd say no to the #AmericanClownEmperor
But will Trump obey - or will the DOJ gaslight on the decision and keep tariffs in place?

The decision is a major setback for President Trump, who responded by imposing a 10 percent global tariff after lashing out at the justices who ruled against him. Trade deals his administration has struck with countries around the world are now in question.
And what #CorruptSCOTUS decision came down in 2010?
Why Citizens United that fully opened the door to dirty money is US politics. Coincidence?
