She said the Court is "consistently ignoring real-world harms." She warned the practice is "potentially corrosive" to our entire justice system.She wasn't talking about politics. She was talking about people.
🚨 ALARM SOUNDED — FROM INSIDE THE SUPREME COURT ITSELF 🚨
A sitting Supreme Court Justice just stood at Yale Law School and publicly warned the American people about her own Court.
Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson called the conservative majority's rulings "scratch-paper musings."
She is smart enough to have seen the truth & to have gotten off this train long long ago, but she didn't.
This isn’t about left vs. right. When a president threatens to wipe out ‘a whole civilization,’ every human being is at risk—and every voter must say NO to his abuse of power.

“No president – Democrat or Republican – has the right to drag us into a war and kill foreign leaders without Congress and the American people. If we let that stand, we don’t have checks and balances anymore
“Please call this what it is: an unauthorized act of war and attempted regime‑change assassination, not a ‘show of strength.’
Where are the questions about civilian deaths and Congress’ war power?”
“Trump’s unilateral assassination strike on Iran’s leadership is an illegal act of war; Congress must stop him now with a War Powers vote and no blank check for another Middle East war.”
Support an immediate War Powers Resolution to block further attacks and require a vote before any more action.
.”
Call Congress today (and again Monday).
Ask both senators and your House member to:
Publicly oppose Trump’s Iran war and assassination strike.
“Please call this what it is: an unauthorized act of war and attempted regime‑change assassination, not a ‘show of strength.’
CALL TODAY & Monday

Stop saying Trump wants to "nationalize elections."
What he said was: "We should take over the voting, the voting in at least many—15 places. The Republicans ought to nationalize the voting.”
"Take over the voting" and "nationalizing voting" is very different from the more sanitized language.

I'm no techie — just a concerned citizen who cares deeply about democracy.
You had the courage to say NO to the Pentagon's demand for unrestricted AI. Now match that courage with action:
