Republicans: "no one owes you a house"
Also Republicans: "you can't live on the street either"
What they really mean is "Just stop existing."
@@i-love-comountains3850Well they do give you the right to a gun so that might be a suggestion of what they want you to do about it.
@@i-love-comountains3850Yes, that was my thought. So will "self deletion" becoming legal because that's the next step. I can't believe America is this far gone?
@@annmarieknappI wasn't thinking self deletion. Maybe think a lil deeper into that thought. Barrel always points away from yourself...
If it were up to Republicans, America would be the least free country on Earth for regular people, and decisions like these are concrete evidence of that.
We all died in 2012 as the Mayans have predicted and we live in hell since. Change my mind.
😂😂 My God that’s it, you cleared it !
I do recall seeing a few flaming jaguars falling from the skies back then!
So I really am seeing dead people
Ill allow it at this point!
Notice how gamergate happened right after 2012? Coincidence? I THINK NOT
I really wish I wasn't living during a historical event all the time
*unprecedented times
To be fair it's always the case.
Literally all moments in time are history the moment after they happen.
@@ASDeckard That is if they indeed happened, much of history is a myth
You just have more access to all the bad news in the world. It's a golden era for fear mongering propagandists.
The homeless ruling will also allow states to criminalize protesters that set up encampments to protest over multiple days.
Oh man i didn't think of that...
This is likely the reason it was ruled that way
I mean, they tecnnically already were breaking loitering laws. Thats often the whole point, breaking a law in a non-violent way, to get attention to your cause.
@@Asunder09um yeah, everything they do has ulterior motives. It’s all moving towards suppression and control. It’s a major step towards quieting the people’s voice.
That was the plan all along! A first amendment right to peacefully assemble should be sacrosanct. But, you watch how they make legislative changes to dictate what a protest can look and be like. This is all about eroding our First Amendment rights.
I love how they are willing to pay to house and feed them in jail but not in an apartment.
If they're in prison they're pretty much slave labor though. Can put them to work in a privatized prison and increase profits for whatever evil corporation.
Oh yes. Because you can own someone in prison. You can't own a homeless person otherwise.
It even costs more! You have to feed, guard, and house them.
Prison labor is cheap.
@@wakewakey it cost taxpayers more. Not the people benefiting from the labor.
That homeless ruling is incredibly anti-freedom and statist. “The government owns outside, citizens are not allowed to sleep there”
You can't criminalize being homeless, but rich people have been trying since the Dark Ages. That's where our "Vagrancy" laws originate. Wealthy land owners after the collapse of Rome started luring "wild people", or people who lived freely in the countryside, to come and live and work on their estates. When the wealthy land owners got a taste of how good this deal was FOR THEM, they wanted ALL of the wild people working on their properties. They worked with the lawmakers at the time to write laws that made it illegal to live "wild" so that they could force more wild people into serfdom... we've been fighting this battle for centuries. When will we remember? When will we reject rule by the rich?
@@muqeoso is it now illegal to pitch a tent in the wilderness for a weekend break? Because technically it’s the same thing.
@@damedusa5107 Yes it is. If you want to do that, the law requires you to go to a camping facility or conservation area, and pay for the use of a campsite on their property.
@@damedusa5107 spending a weekend in the woods is not the same thing as living in the woods. "Living wild" in the Dark Ages is the same as "living off grid" today if you somehow didn't pay for your property and you accept no help from the state. Most off gridders today pay for their land and have far more luxury and comfort than those in the Middle Ages due to our advances in technology!
@@muqeoReminder that cops won't give a shit about the differences
It's weird that not having a home is illegal but one person owning many homes is perfectly OK. Not to mention home price gouging.
It's not weird with where American headspace seems to be at. Morally bankrupt but not weird.
sounds typical usa
Mericaaaa
If your logic is a simplistic "the amount of property you own is directly proportional to your moral worth" it makes sense
Why is it weird? They're literally opposites.
It's beyond fucked that homelessness is now illegal but parking your car on the sidewalk is only a $115 fine. Cars have more rights to loiter on the sidewalk than humans
Cities are not for people, they’re for commerce
No… they’re getting them too. This ban INCLUDES people living in their cars
It's no lonnger the US Supreme Court; ITS THE MAGA/TALIBAN COURT. Therefore, we Americans must abolish this MAGA/TALIBAN court.
@@xXRickTrolledXx I see some one doesnt understand cities
@@sirpieman300 Thank you for raising your hand
Homeless? No profit.
Homeless in prison? Profit.
Capitalism is cruel and unusual punishment.
Also profit from prison slave labor.
I wonder how many supreme court justices were suddenly given gifts and donations for this. From the looks of all their rulings in such a short time frame, their donuts are open to all.

Punishing the Homeless for being Homeless....How "Christian" of them. 🤦🏿♂️
Isn't it ridiculous how cruel republican Christians are?
@@absynthe9820Not really Republicans have always been Cruel, & Evil people they just use the word Christian to hide it.
My first thoughts when I heard of this “ruling”.
@@absynthe9820Not really Republicans have always been cruel. They just use the word Christian to hide it.
@@absynthe9820Not really they've always been cruel.
This seems to be following the guidelines of Project 2025.
The opening salvo
Yea it is in written the mandate, dismantle the administrative state as the first steps.
Just wait. They gutted the Chevron Act too
No duh after the debate they feel confident trump can win
@@gersomgonzalez8200 it's almost gaurenteed at this point. Shame on the Dems. They abuse their base and ate complicit with the right. They'll never learn
Amazing how the good life we enjoyed was based entirely on the honor system.
Like in red dead redemption 2?
Help, how do I cure America from tuberculosis? I think i screwed up my gameplay
@@CodyPeaselike when youre in first grade and the teacher asks you to be good while they leave the room for a minute or two. The only thing keeping you from being a meneace is your honor
Yep...I was diagnosed with cancer (renal cell carcinoma) 2 years ago. Had the kidney that was the source of it removed. I can still get around on my own but I'm much more limited when it comes to physical activity than I used to be. My time remaining is unknown but likely a couple years most. Given the state of the world I'm not sad about it. I'm 51, the best years of my life are behind me. I can honestly say...I'm at peace and ready to go. (Not due to any religious reasons, I'm an atheist.)
Weird how all it took was a couple of scumbags who couldn't think of a way to justify or even obscure their petty corruption
This just in, the people who own all the money have decided its illegal to be poor.
Conservative logic:
Spending millions of dollars jailing homeless people 👍
Using that same money or much less helping homeless just live 👎
You forgot the part about how conservatives don't care about human lives so it isn't the goal tbh
Just wait until so many people leave that the country collapses. And then other countries start seizing US assets that are in places like Europe/etc to pay for the refugee crisis.
They aren't interested in your survival nor freedom. They are interested in cheap workers, desperate to keep jobs that exploit them, than become prisoners.
They don't want you to have choice, thats against their interest. They want you accept your lot as a modern work slave, without them having to admit that.
They want to rule not represent.
They want you to chant "USA, land of the freedom home of the brave" while you shakle yourself with their invisible shakles of their doing.
Those imprisoned for homelessness will be send to private prisons for slave labor-, I mean prison labor. The State/taxpayers pay for these outsourced prisoners. The prison corporation makes money that is paid out to the investors. Of which many Republicans have shares.
Also the corporations pay into super PAC's that then finance the politicians that favor such rulings.
You don't have choices, you have owners. The problem is the Republicans have catered to the simple/symbol-minded and insecure ones. They have used "God's will" and Christianity, Gun ownership and obsolete and naive conservative talking points to instrumentalize people to vote against their interest!
They want to extract more wealth. They don't give a shiat about the cost. And since the buying power isn't great of those at the bottom, they want more of your workforce exploited.
Also they hope that the socially disregarded will leave and move to Democratic lead sanctuary cities, to then blame Dems for producing homelessness through bad policy.
Same reason for Texas and Florida sending busses of immigrants to NYC area. Push away, shift the blame.
US policy is so far from any social reason or interest in sustainability.
It's closer to a de facto loose neo-liberal economic oligarchy with democratic elements to legitimize corporate picks than an actual democracy.
Land of the free, home of the brave?
More like land of the fee, home of the slave.
Yea at least they’re not bothering everyday people if they’re in jail. Sucks to suck
And it would eventually create less homeless people in the long run. But police and prisons want more money I guess
Have we tried putting america in rice?
Looks at "made in China" tags on everything.
Think we did that already.
@@Zeppathythe idiots put it in soaked wet rice.
My family lineage has been trying forever. Rice will not save us this time.
Hard reset incoming?
Rice isn't gonna help. Time to throw it away and get a new one.
We did it, we're living in the section of the history book that's entitled "Factors Leading to the Rise of Fascism in the Early 21st Century".
Saying the 8th Amendment doesn't apply to policy concerning homeless people was horrifying to hear because its essentially a naked admission that homeless people are legally acceptable targets for cruel and unusual punishment. The American Justice system should spontaneously generate a system of Votes of No Confidence to remove Justices in response to that legal opinion
Basically ruled that they’re not legally people
@@Gloomdrakea grand American tradition dating back to the founding.
@@russellharrell2747 Significantly more American than apple pie!
3/5ths confidence
It sounds like they moreso just declared the 8th amendment void. Like, at least from the summary, the idea is that the amendment forbids cruel and unusual punishment... unless a local government wants to do it. Local law supersedes federal law, when convenient, in the conservative worldview, which means the amendment functionally does not exist, because there's always going to be a local law.
What's crazy is the original precedent was a 9-0 unanimous decision, and it was overturned by a 6-3 decision on partisan lines. Unanimous decisions shouldn't be overturned so simply
People should have voted for Hillary
@@TheEvolver311people did, she won the popular vote
@@TheEvolver311Hilary won the popular vote. She should have campaigned better along the rust belt and just been a better candidate in general. Also the dnc maybe shouldn’t have screwed over Bernie……twice
@@mookiestewart3776but many people in swing states refused to vote to punish the DMC and instead have punished all of us with 3 christian nationalists on the supreme court. When Trump wins in November Thomas and Alito will retire and be replaced with similar nut jobs securing a 6-3 majority for the next 30 years. Paving the way for more of this crap.
Unanimous decisions automatically becoming Constitutional Amendments? Might be an idea to consider. Ofc this would be a very bad rule if something happened to certain Supreme Court justices and suddenly Trump or some other R president got to appoint brand new justices.
Young homeless people will try their best to keep moving all night long. The old and the infirm will end up arrested or dead. This is not a bug, this is the feature! Welcome to the new United States of America!
🤦🏾♂️
Should probably change our country name to the Divided States of America
I used to think that the USA from the purge movies was impossible and would never happen. Starting to doubt that now
new? lol. sleeper.
I can attest, not through my own experience (yet, thank god) but a friend’s. They have to take drugs to stay up all night just to not have their stuff stolen. They constantly have to be on the move. The only reason they relapsed was because they became homeless and has to survive. Now this just gives homeless people another reason to get on drugs that keep their energy up and keep them moving.
So, does this mean we should start carrying testing strips because nobody else is going to test for hazardous materials in our food?
It'll take some time for things to shift, but yeah.
Honestly there should be a citizens' initiative to do something like this already. Not so much for the banned stuff, but more to determine levels of the questionable stuff.
@@danielbriggs991 If such a thing formed they would be brided like crazy and 50 more secretly sponsored by certain corporations would pop up.
And the corporations can sell us the tests, which themselves may be faulty...
I know. That's an important detail to figure out in the setup of it. It happened to Yelp, for instance.
Overturning Chevron broke me. Every part of the government, from military command to the tiniest regulator, has to make decisions about what the law means. What do you mean they can't do that?
They still can, but challenged in court, the judge will no longer defer to the administrative agencies. Now the courts will take the cases, hear summoned witness experts and make a ruling. Due to most regulation laws being written vaguely, the judge can basically rule whatever they want.
Their corperate masters are pulling their strings. It's class warfare.
YES. I am broken, too. First Roe v Wade, then the debates, now this. I almost didn’t click on this because I knew it must have happened. This has such far-reaching implications and congress can’t get anything done. Late stage capitalism is just…hopeless dysphoria. Fascism. Biden should have stacked the fkn court.
@@mus1quenonst0p Stacking the court would've been hard even when dems had majority in both congress and senate. It probably didn't happen for a reason. Though, you can never trust liberals. It wouldn't surprise me a single bit that, after winning, dems thought history is over again and status quo can continue.
@@mus1quenonst0pbro, Biden couldn't stack Lego blocks at this point. Its Joever
I can't wait to go to jail and confidently tell my fellow inmates that I'm just in there because I am homeless

As a trans woman I'm losing hope
Honestly...the US will probably cease to exist as a nation early next year. I'm expecting to be living in a refugee camp in another country next year.
Imagine thinking punishing a homeless person is a solution to anything.
Yea we should incentivize more homelessness..
They're getting a headstart on project 2025, dismantling whatever parts of the administrative state's power they can right away.
This has always been their agenda
But Biden is president right now. Even if he wins all this is in effect
So are they dismantling the state, or is it going to be an autocracy? You people just cant seem to decide
@user-sc3or7ys9z it's always been clear. They dismantle regulatories like the EPA or FTC and put everything in the hands of 1-2 handpicked cronies that agree with your every word
They’re all in on it. This is bigger than we’ve ever imagined.
Just another reminder on why it is important to vote Dem rather than to not vote at all. 2016 doomers and both siders have created hell on earth.
(It always can get worse).is the saying these people forget
Well I wouldn't go as far as to say they created it, more so they were just OK with it to begin with and passively allowed conservatives to ruin the country. The conservatives ruined the country, accelerationists simply cheered them on.
How have they created hell on earth? You’re the ones that have been in charge for four years lmao. You should have to take an IQ test to vote
Ya accelerationism my ass a trump presidency didn’t eventually create some progressive revolution it just made everything worse and harder to correct
Not just vote but actually write your senators and congress. Because right now the only people that talk to them are the rich and out of touch lobbyists
How many "gifts" were given for this decision?
None, this is their ideology and was predictable as an outcome
Elections matter if Hillary had won none of this would be happening
Can we feed the supreme court some poisoned food due to lack of regulations?
This is one of the worst supreme courts of all time
And we just had Roe V Wade overturned!
Sooooooo when do we all just collectively decide we want a better reality? Like, i understand, get involved with local goverment and blah blah blah, but like, cant we just pretend this stuff isnt happening. If we all stop looking at the supreme court will they just vanish from reality? We need magical intervention.
Edit: Ahhhh I understand now, it's better to build prisons than shelters because profit
We need someone with a terminal cancer diagnosis and a desire to be a very controversial historical figure IMO....
This is priceless lmao
Revolution.
Why with cancer? Can it be something else?
Ah yes Project 2025 is happening.
They’re quite literally lubing us up for it.
Doesn't this transfer authority to the legislative and judicial from the executive? I thought the point of 2025 was to strengthen the presidency?
@@luckylanno Nah, the insistence on the Presidency was just the bait. All focus was on the election and y'all just totally forgot they already had this power and could just bulldoze the attosecond the election started going against them.
You all were sold out years ago. Welcome to the endgame where the bad guys lost patience.
V: This one is worse than Roe v Wade, boys.
Me: Surely not that bad. What happened?
V: So anyway, the "Chevron deference"...
Me: Oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck.
So....any idiots sticking to "protest vote" to teach dems a lesson? So they can replace alito and thomas with zealots in their 50s ?
"Support Biden to prevent the stuff Biden is absolutely helpless to stop right now!"
You are going to go down in flames still defending a failure. As demonstrated, Biden clearly Can't stop this. Or doesn't care to.
I don't understand how a 6-3 decision can override a 9-0 decision????
Because the Supreme Court is riddled with glaring design flaws.
Agreed, unanimous decisions should only be overturned by unanimous decisions.
Thats because youre about as sharp as a marble.

Buddy, legislation can criminalize anything they want as long as no one refutes it, and given america's culture most of the common people will do nothing; they just want to relax in the best way they can, so they'll gladly sit after being told to like dogs if it means no trouble. This has to be refuted by force, it's been needed for too long at this point.
Government: It is no concern of mine whether your family has... what was it again?
Homeless people: Um... housing.
Government: HA! You really should've thought of that before you became homeless!
Government: Now pay a fine
Homeless people: ...
With how expensive it is to own a home, rent and live, they need to give the homeless somewhere to live or leave them the fuck alone!

¡Viva la Revolución!
Jailing people for not having shelter is just so Orwellian and stupid. Likewise fining people who have no money.
I was homeless in Vancouver, Wa a handfull of years before the pandemic and I found out any form of sleeping outside is punishable by a 250$ fine and a night in jail. Because you know most homeless people can afford multiple times the cost of a hotel a day. I found out because I was sleeping in some woods that were unused because it was between a freeway and a bike trail but if you knew where you could turn into the trees and find a fairly flat level clearing and I got harassed by work crew boss who would have reported me if it were not for my stuff already being packed up and me saying I was just hanging out and had to have all my stuff with me at all times.
I'm so sorry you went through that, seems like gratuitous cruelty
Bush v Gore in 2000 then in 2010 the Citizens United ruling both led us to this horrific point in US history.

The example I've seen is drug use. You can't criminalize being high. You can criminalize possession of a controlled substance. Sleeping is a biological function that happens regardless of your property ownership or rental status.
"The law, in its majestic equality, forbids rich and poor alike to sleep under bridges, to beg in the streets, and to steal their bread." - Anatole France. The times haven't changed all that much since then.
You know they are doing this just because they all think that they are smart enough to capitalize on the inevitable fall out and make a bunch of money at the expense of everyone else.
Free speech online is officially dead as if we all didn't already know that. The Supreme Court ruled that the states and other parties did not have the legal right (standing) to sue the federal government over its interactions with social media companies.The government can now legally tell social media companies what reality is, what is true, who is allowed to speak, etc.
The Republicans hinged themselves on pretending to be for free speech

My doomerism is at an all time man why the fuck is everything getting so bad
At this rate, federal laws will have to explicitly state every single thing that is ever done by a federal agency. I guess courts can overturn anything done within a federal agency unless that exact thing is made clear by statute.
I work for the VA as a healthcare provider. I guess unless a law specifically states that I prescribe amoxicillin to patient Jonathan Doe then I have no basis for doing that. The idea that my job says I need to provide "medical care" is too vague and raises "major questions." A law has to explicitly state what I do for each and every patient or else I'm just wielding government power without a necessary legal mandate.

One of the biggest issues is the turn over rate, almost no one sticks through an entire contract, much less 2 or more. We wanted an observer on every boat once per year. We only had enough observers to cover about 38% of the fishing fleet leaving the door open for poaching and overfishing which was a constant issue.
They fight this by raising pay and keeping it competitive.
With that pay in the hands of higher government it won't be able to keep up and create the demand needed to fill those positions.
I fear for the observer program as a whole. The north Pacific fleet is the only sustainable wild fishery in America, and we've just opened the door for more poaching and overfishing. Over a third of global fisheries have collapsed in the last 50 years due to these issues.
Sucks for America, sucks for the oceans, sucks for mankind in general.
You probably wouldn't have thought technocracy would be the issue of our age. But instinctually, I knew.
Anyone who's paid attention to conservatives over the last 20 years should have seen this coming. They've been anti-intellectual, anti-competence and fascistically obstructionist for a while now.
I'm all for a technocratic republican democracy. There needs to be more requirements to hold office than just age and residency. Like if your want to be a lawmaker, you should be required to have a law degree, political science degree, administrative law background or civil service background, or some kind of proof that you have a modicum of intelligence in what kind of things you will be doing in congress. When you let every Tom karen and Kevin run for office you get what we currently have. Also, we need to add some liberal justices to the court and expand the court OR impeach Thomas and Alito. Also Barrett, I like beer, and gorsich all lied to congress when they denied having any plans to overturn roe v wade
@@TeamValkyrie2023 Only once access to good educational opportunities and economic security is made universal. Otherwise it would just be another plutocracy since only the wealthy would be able to afford those credentials.
@@TeamValkyrie2023 While I agree with some of that, such requirements will be used to keep working class individuals out of government, especially with higher education getting more and more out of reach for average Americans. I feel it'll just keep rich oligarchs in power, and further entrench them into the system.
I know people joke that homeless people would be better off in prison because then they'll have a roof.
But no. Prison isn't a hotel. They'll also have a criminal record, increasing the chance that they'll remain homeless once they get out.
Let’s do what Cuba did, Cuba outlawed landlords!
also cuba has a cultural tradition of multifamily homes where many members of the extended and nuclear family all share one residency which helps in solving homelessness.20 people living in a 2 bed one bathroom home.
Why dont you just move there!
@@Redmanticore it can also be done in a less drastic way. E.g., in many cultures it's considered OK to live with your parents for longer. I've lived with my parents till 21. I've met my gf at my uni when we both were 17, and since she came to study from another part of the country, my parents invited her to move out of the student dorm and live with us. This meant that someone else who needs it gets to live in the dorm; that we get to spend more time together; and that we as a young couple get to see how a successful marriage works. Stuff like how to not get into silly arguments, how to give each other space, how to acknowledge when you were wrong- we learned so much back then.
We moved out a couple years later, once we finished uni. We have been together for 14 years now - moved countries twice, survived 2 years of a long-distance relationship, overcame really big fights and breakups, etc. My parents absolutely adore her (as do I).
Multi-generational living works, even when done on a small scale. Not sure I could share a living space with 10 people (I'm heavily introverted), but even an urban, westernized nuclear family can find ways to share a living space for longer and invite more family members to join in.
Do you really want the government to build and run apartment buildings? What a nightmare...
@@EdwardCostigan why don't you huff ammonia?
It is getting so very hard to retain any sort of positivity. Normally I'm pretty good at keeping away from doom and gloom, but it really feels like everything is falling to pieces at once and there's little anyone can do about it. I'm honestly crushed right now.
Beau's got an interesting twist on this one. It makes it more difficult for Republicans to slip stuff past people and then interpret it in horrible ways. He says 'Republicans have caught the car again, and don't know how that will play out'. I've also seen people mentioning how administrative state has ways to fight back against this, which is unsurprising that bureaucrats would have defenses and not be completely helpless. It's a power grab, but America is entirely based on centers of power fighting against each others' power grabs. Wait and see. The monkey's paw curls, with this one.
We can only hope
It's a glimmer of hope, but I'll take it.
@@matthewsanchez7953 we have to. The very instant that we give up hope is the very instant they win
Yeah, he said it might be the long term picture. In short term republicans will benefit.
He's right. It's a short-term victory that will lead to long-term consequences for the Republican party. Because those idiots didn't learn their lesson after Roe v. Wade.
Have we tried unplugging America and plugging it back in?
That's gonna take a whoooole lot of u-haul trucks and fertilizer😅
Have you ever considered that homelessness is actually one of the key weapons in the fight for worker’s rights?
It's not 1910
All history hitherto is the history of class struggle @@TheEvolver311
@@TheEvolver311if only that were true.
@@TheEvolver311 It is wonderful that your situation is not precarious and you have a good support network. For many, homelessness is a very real consideration with respect to collective action, striking, or simply leaving a toxic workplace. Yeah, it’s not 1910, but housing isn’t exactly a universal right in our societies.
@drkenata5807 no my point was that in 1910 it was feasible for large gathering of homeless people to meaningfully come together. You can't just look at 1880's labor and assume anything about how it applies to today

This court would probably be fine with bringing back the Dred Scott decision.
stop giving them ideas
It's in Project 2025. It claims the collapse of the nuclear family is due to a rise in interracial mariage and calls for an end to protecting people based on race (among other things) and forbids the government from acknowledging races and sexual orientations exist.
Seriously!
Oh, so we're *fucked* fucked huh

No if the "left" had shown up for Hillary none of this would be happening
Yes, I was thinking that too. Corruption leading to more corruption. Amazing.
Well, this is the nail in the coffin!
I want to add that some shelters are innately religious and can even force the people staying there to work for no wages. These same shelters often reject non-able bodied individuals because they can't work. The work can vary from construction work to working in a bakery. Often prayer related activities are mandatory. You can't be LGBT and if you aren't married then you'll be separated from your SO. Sometimes these shelters are the only ones that exist in cities.
The speed & ease that this court is overturning precedent should be a wake up call for liberals wavering in voting for Biden
I feel like in the last 2 days, i feel like I’m witnessing the moment America’s fate was sealed.
Like obviously a lot can still happen and our game plan remains unchanged for us, but god I can’t help but think the only way out now is just hope that dems can filibuster all the legislation and the worst executive orders can just be undone by the next president. That’s all I can see happening unless Biden actually gets his shit together and does some good legislation because even him stepping down is something I don’t see happening or working even working.
futurama nixon head did say, “ill take you a place where the constitution doesn’t mean diddly squat” *pans over the SC* hilariously true and scary
It's time to pack the court.13 Justices, 1 for each Federal Circuit.
There it is, again. that funny feeling.
As to "What happens now?" Don't despair. When the Supreme Court massively overreaches its power and breaks the country in stupid ways like this, that builds support even among moderates and liberals to create a long term solution to the supreme court whether that be packing the court, or impeaching justices, frankly, a lot of us realize already that we need to make our way to that eventually, and we get closer to that being a real possibility whenever the council o' six decrees another turd we all have to live with.
We Americans have a history of fighting this isn't the first time fascism has tried to take our country
This means that citizens can’t lean on the EPA or any other administrative agencies in lawsuits. They’re basically leaving us to fend for ourselves.
This america is now broken beyond repair...
6 people should not have this kind of power
If it makes you feel any better, only 5 of them have to agree.
The Supreme Court has decided that the law, in its majestic equalty, forbids rich and poor alike from sleeping in any public spaces whatsoever.
I'll have to bring a proof of residency just so I can go out on a picnic and nap on public land.
What happens if people storm the supreme court?
Oh cool my job is on the chopping block. That or I don't have to listen to the [federal agency that oversees my job]

Yeah but that only works in your favor if you are rich and pasty white. Or Clarence Thomas.
