Roberts see bush v Gore
Alito see bush v Gore & OH 2004
Thomas see Anita Hill
Gorsch see Mitch McConnell and Russia 2016
Kavanaugh see Russia 2016 and the FBI not investigating the 4,000 + tips about his behavior
Amy Coney Island see Russia 2016 see 2020 election was going on at the time ... the same reason McConnell gave for
blocking Merrick Garland

The Heritage Foundation/Judicial Crisis Network have been working on packing the courts for years so the
minority can control the majority.

...there is a reason that the SCOTUS has been stacked by the GOP, and it's for rulings just like this.

The reich-wing knows they can't continually win the hearts and minds with their ideas and policies, so they'll go for the next best thing: they'll fill the judiciary with their foot soldiers.

And make no mistake, GOP Senators like Susan Fucking Collins knew EXACTLY what they were doing all along.

Vote. Every. Republican. Out. Of. Office.
None of them deserves re-election.
All of them are guilty of subverting democracy.
Nothing will ever get better in the U.S. until the GOP* is gone!

The first 2 major things done by 45s administration. Absolutely necessary for the continuing change of a Democracy into an Oligarchy. The rest was icing on the cake and for show.
