@dave yeah. That, plus impeaching him literally every week.

I absolutely do not buy the argument he has full authority, or at least their definition of what that means. We’ve always limited a president’s ability to fire people at will, and also limited his ability to hire. The Supreme Court has gutted both of those long standing norms (plus the voting rights act, congress’s power of the purse, their ability to pass laws like the one that creates the epa, etc).

These people are partisan hacks who are no better than the people who did the dred Scott decision, and they deserve not one iota of respect or benefit of the doubt.

@lkanies my extremely optimistic take is that even if they're bulldozing decades of precedent at least they have a consistent legal theory and won't suddenly change their minds when the next president boots all the maga creeps, and just maybe congress will find a way to stabilize things so we're not reshuffling the entire government every administration.

Let me have this, it's all I got 😭
