  1. Sadly, this has been evident for quite some time. The party of law and order is, yet again, a bald faced lie

  2. And we can now also pick and choose portions of the Constitution to slavishly follow to the nth degree and other portions to minimize or completely ignore.

  3. Then they surrender ALL Constitutional protections, and should be locked up without charge, representation, or trial.

  4. Great! Now that we can openly ignore the Roberts Court, blue states are 100% free to ignore *Citizens United (2010)* and *District of Columbia v. Heller (2008)*.

    Thanks, Repubs!

  5. “Texas Should Ignore Supreme Court Decision That Doesn’t Actually Require Them To Do Anything.”

  6. This is insane.
    This is a conservative court and they still throw tantrums. The rule of law and balance of powers is crumbling.

  7. California should just start confiscating guns. /s

  8. It seems like from the day Trump said “we are the party of law and order” they have all been dead set on anything but.

  9. Just like Congressional subpoenas … they feel that they can ignore them if they don’t agree but at the same time have no problem issuing them and believing they should be obeyed

  10. These jokers really are willing to tear down the whole system. They aren’t “conserving” anything anymore. 

  11. There’s no winning here and my winning I mean proper governing. The goal post will always move, the law will be reiterated by and for them. All the while proclaiming *they must* before *the other* does it first. Preemptively subjugating to make sure it doesn’t happen. I hope no one gives these folks a seat at the table during Reconstruction pt II

  12. The Republican party is truly a joke. I believe firmly that the majority of Americans are decent and honest people. They need to vote. The Republicans will be trampled. They are not serious people. Vote!

  13. The GQP is wholly and totally incapable of governing. Completely detached from reality. Taken by insane conspiracy theories and fascist undercurrents; the modern Republican Party has boiled down to extremist white Christian nationalism with a flair for terrorism.

  14. Law and order party don’t like law and order (for themselves).

  15. The closer they get to Hitler the happier they are.

  16. Apparently, you can pick and choose what the Supreme Court rules if it pleases you. Fascists.

  17. But ONLY when it’s on a ruling we disagree with.

  18. This is one of the dumbest swords to die on. Republicans are essentially telling Democrats that they can also ignore Supreme Court rulings they don’t agree with. 

  19. On September 4, 1957, the first day of classes at Central High, Governor Orval Faubus called in the Arkansas National Guard to block the Black students’ entry into the high school (after SCOTUS ruling in Brown). Later that month, President Dwight D. Eisenhower sent in federal troops to escort the nine students into the school.

  20. The party of lawless and disorder in a nutshell. Truly a worthless party for America.

  21. Women, do you hear this BS. We can now ignore the Supreme Court.

    So the Government doesn’t have control over our autonomy? Good to know.

  22. Who knew th GOP are now Anarchists?

    I use to wonder how far the GOP would go to stay in power. Seems we will soon find out.

  23. These people are deeply and truly unserious. They need to be voted out en masse and never be heard from again.

  24. Ok, taking over the government thru insurrection is not a far stretch from ignoring the current one

  25. It’s already happening in Florida businesses ignoring DEI laying off people in droves.

    Ace Hardware leading the way.

    White Only signs coming

  26. When your political party starts to resemble a sovereign citizen… you might have a problem

  27. Wait… You mean the same Supreme Court they stacked to do their bidding? The Law and Order Party? Ignoring the word of Law? Sounds about right.

  28. Are we surprised? They do the same thing with the Bible.

  29. The problem is republicans do that type of stuff and then when Democrats take control, Democrats play nice and don’t shove republican’s changing the goalpost positions down their throat. Look at the Trump tax cuts, instead of immediately rolling them back, Democrats chose to stay with the expiration dates that republicans set in place. Another example of the pre-funding of postal worker retirement law that republicans forced through, when Democrats took control several times after that law, they did nothing to revise or rescind it.

    When one party is not playing by any rules and the other is, the system goes to hell fast. Rules and precedent for republicans don’t exist if they are inconvenient.

  30. So if they are okay with ignoring the supreme court, then they should be okay with women getting abortions now then right?

  31. The sum total of the IQs in this picture wouldn’t be enough to win a high school basketball game.

  32. Funny how 91 charges changes your opinion the courts

  33. The SCOTUS justices should consider the fact that one of the first thing that dictators do on rising to power is to remove the Supreme Court

  34. I don’t understand how the Supreme Court can sit around watching all this unfold and think that Donald Trump should still be on the ballot. I just don’t.

  35. Funny when those “Constitutionalist” want to ignore the Constitution when it doesn’t serve their false delusional ideologies.

  36. Imo ignoring a direct order from Supreme Court should be tantamount to insurrection
