Once again, my friend is proven right ... The courts ARE holding

appoint Federalist judges. Currently, the courts are the only thing saving us.

He and Trump must be really ticked off that their first Supreme Court pick isn’t completely in their pocket ...

I assume that they thought that they would get a straight-up replacement for Scalia, although that might be more Brett "I like Beer" Kavanaugh

I enjoy reading your posts.

Many will be exposed and removed - some will have shares in private juvi and adult prisons .
Follow them and the money.

Watch the ride

I felt really good reading it then, and I feel even better seeing what's been happening since.

I'm so proud of Judge Sullivan and Judge Walton also, who I spent my formative legal career practising before.

Go Judge Sullivan! Go Judge Walton!

But pay off it will.

In 10 years, many of the Judges now holding the line will be retired if not buried. The barely-qualified 40 year old ideologues will be hitting their stride.

Just like Republicans do ...

No more of that idiotic "Joe Biden still needs to earn my vote" crap.

"This is the last time I'll vote for a substandard candidate".

Oh young person, let me assure you that it is not the last time.

for those who need simple certainty. And too many do.

"No more of that idiotic "Joe Biden still needs to earn my vote" crap."

That is what I'm most skeptical about in terms of civil rights. Women with civil rights, especially bodily autonomy, are an historical aberration to them that has us going against nature by not being chained to a kitchen stove, constantly pregnant against our will.

Still, however much I despised Scalia, we have to give the old devil his due. When it counted for LGBTQ civil rights, he came down on the side of justice and overturned the sodomy laws in Texas, specifically, and the country, generally.

They will curtail civil liberties only when they conflict with corporate might, and even then it will likely be a mixed bag and will be unlikely to uphold the rights of women.

the right wingers on the SC broke to the light THIS time.

Not the norm, by a far sight.

to protect all Drumpt tax documents. And to support further voter suppression efforts.

We can live through one term of trump but we have to get rid of trump. The control of the courts is on the ballot and we have two seats that need to be protected

Quite a few Trump judges ruling against him for example.
