Did SCOTUS Rewrite the US Constitution - Thom Hartmann

[Rhiannon12866]

SCOTUS’s latest ruling allowing Trump on the ballot has some progressives asking if the U.S. Constitution is being re-written by a far right court. What do you think? - Aired on 03/05/2024.

1. Yep, they nullified 14A Sec. 3. And the 3 Dems went along without dissenting...

The dissent they did issue was called a "shot across the bow", warning the SCOTUS 6 allegedly...but not about changing the Constitution, about reining themselves in...knife to a gun fight.

Come on Dems, wake up. Don't go along to get along.

2. I heard on news that they modified their dissent to speed up the decision. We all saw exactly what happened

And who was responsible. And I certainly agree with you, this was a huge disappointment, but I acknowledge that the three women are between a rock and a hard place dealing with that majority. The court was not meant to function that way.

3. Sure seems like it.

4. In essence, USSC just declared one of the Constitution's Amendments

unconstitutional. Their "remedy" can't be implemented/executed. Rendering it useless rhetoric.

Pretty sure that will be their MO when they eventually nullify the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment, destroying Separation of Church and State.
