"This week’s ruling was not a one-off. It’s the logical endpoint of a decades-long effort to disenfranchise minority voters and keep minority representation to an absolute minimum.

The three longest-serving conservative justices on the court right now have a combined 75 years on the bench. This is their pet project. They own it."

"A multiracial democracy cannot be defended by a narrow constituency. It requires a broader, deeper coalition that spans race, gender, class, geography, religion, and identity."

"Whatever we call it—Jim Crow 2.0, the John Roberts Jim Crow Era, or the John Crow Era—no person in America is more responsible for the return to the Jim Crow Era than John Roberts. The resurrection of the post-Civil War Jim Crow brand of racism is the crowning achievement of John Roberts’ life work" (continued in /9)

"This court has been a shameful court ... I used to argue before the Supreme Court and I read the opinion. It's shit. I mean, it's just bullshit. The whole thing is bullshit. …It is all politics and it is all — this notion of neutral justice is now,
for everybody to see, absolute bullshit."

"Much of this court’s corruption involves judges accepting favors and gifts from wealthy benefactors with matters that did — or might — come before them. This is a court that, it would seem, can be bought."
