Samuel Alito flew two flags used by insurrectionists.
Clarence Thomas' wife plotted to overturn the 2020 election.
Both justices refused to recuse themselves from SCOTUS cases related to the January 6th plot.
It's a stain on our nation that this has effectively been forgotten.
There's a decent summary of that study's highlights here. Interesting stuff, especially this, "Republican appointees on the Supreme Court have become far more likely than Democratic appointees to rule in favor of parties with more financial resources."

Resistance members are being targeted this week. It appears to be the return of Stalinism. What’s happening right now looks uncomfortably familiar. It feels like the return of Stalinism, not in the old, Cold
BUT male goats are Billys, not Rams.
Worst movie in the history of motion pictures.

Ghoul.
Calvin and Hobbes cartoon. We see Calvin’s back, holding a single balloon, and being carried away by it high up in the air, judging from the lack of other ground-level objects and the closeness of a flying bird. He observes, stoically: “that is one of the remarkable things about life: it’s never so bad that it can’t get worse.”
That one person can drag us into a war without consulting or even notifying Congress, or our allies, or fully explaining to the American people why this is necessary, is absolutely bonkers.
Reminder that Congress has the power to stop all of this. Where the hell are they?
Reminder: The US has a long history of overthrowing leaders in Latin America only to install even worse ones (all while stealing natural resources and ignoring their new shell leader's human rights violations)...
REP. GOLDMAN: “Trump promised oil executives if they gave him $1 billion for his campaign, he’d do right by them. They gave about $500 million. This is a massive gift in violation of international law, essentially just co-opting an entire country's natural resources for the benefit of 🇺🇸 Companies.”
Are these the same 8 wars he has claimed to have prevented?
My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.
Never thought I would agree with Mr. Rivera, but it has been a surprising year sonfar.
Swalwell: He couldn't run a casino, and now he's going to run a country in South America while he fails to run a country in North America?
Let's move on from "Release the Epstein Files" to "Call Out Their Names".
ICE is attempting to deport another US citizen, this time a wheelchair-bound daughter of a Navy veteran.
So cool!!!!
Wow!!!!
Ouch.
*laughs in midwestern*
If you’re going to terrorize Californians while hiding your identity, then you’re going to have to Reveal to Wheel.
As long as you don't douse mine on accident, we're good.
FOLKS NEED TO REALIZE HOW HUGE THIS IS
For the first time in modern Texas history, Dems have candidates running in every state and federal race on the 2026 ballot.
That includes all congressional seats, every state House and state Senate race, plus statewide judicial and State Board of Education.
Lee: As a Black woman, there’s no way I don’t have hope. I’ve seen a lot in my life, and we have these moments of backward steps. But we have hope. I see hope. I see our young people—they have hope. I see them fighting hard for our democracy and for a better life.
Erroneously thinking you've taken intelligence tests, when the tests were administered because doctors are (repeatedly) concerned you have dementia and may pose a danger to yourself and others, is probably yet another sign that you actually do have dementia.
It’s almost like green energy is the only way forward and a handful of oil barons are doing everything in their power to keep that from happening so they can get even richer at the cost of literally everything else in the world.
