The real reason for the Supreme Court’s corruption crisis

The Constitution gives Congress the power to create lower federal courts, Roberts argued, and that empowers Congress to help oversee them. The Supreme Court, by contrast, is created by the Constitution itself, and that suggests that Congress has less power to constrain the justices.
Though Roberts wrote that the justices do voluntarily comply with some rules that apply to lower court judges, such as a federal law imposing “financial reporting requirements” on all federal judges, he rather ominously warned that the Supreme Court “has never addressed whether Congress may impose those requirements on the Supreme Court” — leaving the clear impression that his Court might start striking down ethical statutes if Congress insisted that the justices must comply with them.
Roberts is straight up saying federal law doesn't apply to the SCOTUS. Good thing Feinstein is too busy shitting in her diaper to show up to work.

His gambit paid off WAY WAY WAY WAY better than he anticipated. It’s effectively impossible for democrats to claw back these changes. Republicans won’t play by the same set of rules and have - let’s put it mildly - far different objectives.

Georgia republicans removing elected prosecutors, Texas removing school boards, Mississippi republicans taking over Jackson, etc.
Voting won’t matter if the results are just ignored or overturned by fiat.
Moving won’t help because it’s just going to spread to the entire country. -

“I have a message for all those governors in New York and California and Illinois: Mississippi is coming to take your jobs, and we have no intention of giving them back,” Reeves said.
what the actual fuck is this delusional asshole on about. mississippi ranks last in like everything and ONLY EXISTS because of the federal taxation redistribution from blue states
without those states funding, mississippi (and most of the red states) would turn into a third world country in about 20 seconds. you know, just like how he depicts his campaign...................... shoot everyone, especially of color, and sort it out later -
4 infsbeen a bug for years. so much so that there are literally apps to fix it
apple seems to not give a fuck. i presume because its some especially nasty bug and nobody wants to unfuck it, and it doesnt' cause enough pain to cause people to give up on their brand
pretty stupid / embarrassing
