You know it's a bad day for America when...

...5 Supreme Court justices can lie under oath, allow themselves to be compromised and corrupted, and be part of sedition against our government, without any charges,and calls for resignations, or investigations. Allowing them. To judge any case is an injustice. Follow the money, and these. People will get exposed more. We have a corrupted Supreme Court .

We just don't like having to admit it. That goes against all the 'greatest nation ever created in the multiverse!!' spiel.

I realize that changes are unlikely to happen, but we have a Court that is not accountable to the people. The Republican Party is doing its best to also make themselves unaccountable by rigging election laws.

We have a rogue Court that can essentially do anything it wants. Even if Congress passed a law making abortion legal throughout the country, this Court would throw it out.

of the Federalist Society. Since the Supreme Court passed Citizens United the donors to the Federalist Society can remain a secret.

Want the FBI to investigate? Christopher Wray belongs to the federalist Society, Justice beer pong was one of his law school acquaintances.

,... American oligarch class has captured the judicial system so it can better work in their favors. The US Supreme Court is their personal domain and the court will now rule accordingly to exclusively serve their best interests and intents

The iron fist of the ruling class is about to come down upon us with a vengence.

The damage done our democracy by the reign of Donald J. Trump is about to become more apparent as they proceed to construct their Fascist Christian utopia.

These jokers believe they are taking orders from a higher authority. It’s typical of Christians to believe that lying to non-Christians is perfectly fine. Well, it’s not. I’m old, but I will gladly use the rest of my life to do my part to detangle religion from politics.
