@w7voa Johnny, you handed what little power you had left to a dimfuck tyrant because you thought he would be *your* dimfuck tyrant. You arrogant prick, eat all the shit in the universe !
@w7voa Just wait until he hears about the judges arrested by the FBI.
@w7voa I cannot see how the political appointment of Judges lends itself to independence. Appointing them by archaic secret bewigged sorting-hat conclave, as we do in England & Wales, seems on the face of it scarcely much better, but it does seem to work.šŸ§™ā€ā™‚ļø

"Chief Justice John Roberts reaffirms his loyalty is owed to the 6 dynasties of the Heritage Foundation

Bradley, Koch, Coors, Scaife, Seid, Uihlein

They bought him & he's staying bought...unless Trump provides a counter offer

All this statement means is that the auction has begun. Bids will be coordinated by his wife

The law belongs to the highest bidder in a spoils system"

@w7voa A friend said today he thinks Roberts is starting to panic that "the Roberts court" will go down in history as the one who gave away democracy.
@tankgrrl @w7voa it did, but I don't believe he cares.
@w7voa "Roberts indirectly and timidly criticizes terrifying monster he helped create."
@marsroverdriver @w7voa Roberts and the Supreme Court are now 100% irrelevant. Trump tore up the Constitution and the SC has 0 enforcement powers.
