When XKCD gets explicitly political, I'm reaaaaal nervous about the state of the world.

@glutto @marinaepelman @xkcd they are arresting judges now.

@demofox @glutto @marinaepelman @xkcd Sounds like something out of the playbook of some CIA-installed fascist state in Latin America. Next step is house arrest for the SCOTUS for stepping out of line. After that, civil war is easily the LESSER evil.
