Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Thomas and Alito would vote to uphold it.
Idk Thomas has been saying some shit recently that makes it seem like he might be getting tired of Trump's shit.
Would be hilarious if Trump and Co try to defang the Supreme Court and they just decide to strike down Executive Orders as broadly unconstitutional for anything beyond directing basic executive branch actions, because they are not laws.
Truly interested. Can you give me a little flavor of what was said by “justice” Thomas
Oh my bad, meant to say Roberts. Get the fuckers confused nowadays. Defending the fact that the Judiciary is an equal branch of government and the concept of basic checks and balances.

It’s safe to assume that Thomas and Alito will just go along with any unconstitutional, fascist BS that Trump’s incels will dream up
Thomas and Robert’s names are easy to confuse. Just remember to ask your self “Which one is the Tom?” and you’ll get it.
ROTFL
Just keeps proving that you should never trust anyone with two first names.
Not even Adam Scott?
That's the guy who does those funny little cubicle comics, right? I don't see what he could possibly do wrong.
Nope, that's Scott "Far right lunatic asshole" Adams.
Adam Scott is the guy from Severance, The Good Place and Parks & Rec
Well now I really don't see what he could have possibly done wrong
