Laying down a marker now: The first time a Supreme Court pundit uses John Roberts's "It's a new world, but it's the same Constitution" line to cast him as Our Principled Defender Of The Rule Of Law Agains Trump, I am going to go their house and give them a swirlie
it sounds like the good guys have the numbers on this one but, dude, Alito is so far gone. soooo far gone. brain fully melted, leaking out onto the dais, forming a puddle of racist Republican goo
Donald Trump didn't make it through the entire Supreme Court oral argument on birthright citizenship, leaving before they were over, per White House pool.
The current Supreme Court-like the current president and Congress-has completely failed to uphold its constitutional duty.
The purpose of our political system is to prevent the rise of tyranny. Each of the branches of our government has failed in that purpose--and must be reformed accordingly.
Alito is arguing that foreign impressment somehow undermines our sovereignty and the Constitution.
The Founding generation would throw rotten food at him in the streets for such a statement.
Wang using the example of the children of Irish and Italian immigrants being entitled to citizenship to try to get Alito to give a shit.
Having a Supreme Court justice pretend the language in the 14 amendment is an enigma, wrapped in a riddle, wrapped in a question is embarrassing.
“Yeah yeah yeah yeah but what about the Constitution?” should be etched in granite on the entrances to the White House, Capitol and Supreme Court
Montana — yes, deep red Montana — has a plan to effectively neuter Citizens United.
No Supreme Court ruling or constitutional amendment needed.
This is no joke.

Trump leaves Supreme Court early during oral arguments as they are not going well for him.
As always, Elie's threads during Supreme Court questioning are a rich trove of understanding and humor, but this specific post is really the key to understanding the role of which Fox News has destroyed America.
On course to lose a Supreme Court case, a war, and an 80-year-old military alliance in one workday. This guy goes hard on April Fools.
Having heard all of Sauer's argument, I'd be surprised if he got a single vote out of SCOTUS for his outlandish and ill-thought through ideas. But Thomas and Alito will likely feel strongly pressured by the orange man in the room. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Justice Alito's hypo about an Iranian newborn leads me to think he is indeed planning to retire at the end of the current Term, because he's apparently auditioning for his next job -- as a Fox News talking head.
Man, it’s gotta be a wild feeling as a con law professor to have Supreme Court justices subtly implying you’re a dipshit
There are few things that give me greater joy than hearing Alito splutter. Just warms me to my toes.
