You should be angry at how easy it is to buy a Supreme Court Justice

You should be angrier at how cheap it is:

@flexghost am I the only one considering options for crowdfunding buying a few senators. I am, of course, hoping that buying a few Republicans to enact voting rights and removing dark money from politics will cause even more of them to have heart attacks. After all, this is how they want the system to work, yet not for those causes.
Show threadflexghost.Aug 5, 2023
@DavidNielsen I’ve thought about that for a while. But the act would alienate the people regularly funding them since it’s not in line with a history of bad votes. They’d deny it because it would cost them in the long run

Despite Anthony Welters attempts to torpedo the ACA from within, he failed. The ACA is even more popular now.

Democrats need to be better spotting self-dealing & faithless donors.

They were at least close friends and he was the godfather of Welter's son etc. long before he was on SCOTUS.

The other billionaires who own him now bought him after he became a justice.
