Liz Cheney Nukes the Supreme Court—With an Urgent Warning About Trump – There’s still a lot we don’t know about what Trump did on January 6. And the Supreme Court may prevent us from ever knowing it.

1. WHY am I sitting here cheering for a friggin Cheney???

2. Wait but she wanted this Supreme Court?

3. Who fucking cares, we have entered the Ambivalent stage. Nothing will happen to this man, and IDGAF about anyone’s strong words and furrowed brow.

4. How the hell did she get access to nuclear weapons?!

5. Remember when the SCOTUS represented the people of America and not the whims of a fascist ass-hat named Putin?

6. Trump? Prison

   Supreme Court? Abolished

7. They should give the President immunity and then Biden can send the Court to Gitmo.

8. I see we have upgraded from “Slams” to “Nukes” now.

9. Oh no!

   She « nuked the Supreme Court » the title says.

   I’m sure scotus wore their sunglasses and some tanning lotion and after the nuking went for dinner at Denny’s.

10. I, as a Democrat, am thankful for Liz speaking up and doing the right thing when it comes to calling out Trump. Too many Republicans and conservatives are too afraid of the MAGA base to say anything. I hope she gets elected and replaces some crazy MAGA Congressperson.

11. “nukes”

    how to make sure I don’t click on your headline.

12. Woah she didn’t just SLAM them she NUKED them!

13. Relatedly, I am really worried [the Supreme Court might rule in favour of the insurrectionist in the April 16 case](https://amp.theguardian.com/law/2024/apr/16/supreme-court-obstruction-trump-january-6) and support a strange interpretation of that statute. This could upend the imprisonment of several who participated in the Jan. 6 mob and spread a message that the Supreme Court is barefacedly with the Trump and political violence faction.

14. In other news:

    [Liz Cheney on Kavanaugh](https://twitter.com/Liz_Cheney/status/1041799902534283265): Judge Kavanaugh is a man of the highest integrity, honor and character – exactly the kind of jurist we need on the Supreme Court. The fact that Judiciary Committee Democrats refuse to participate in a call with him tells you all you need to know. They aren’t interested in facts.

    [Liz Cheney on Barret](https://www.facebook.com/replizcheney/videos/rep-liz-cheney-supports-confirmation-of-judge-amy-coney-barrett/373428450758570/): Judge Barrett proved during last week’s hearings that she is eminently qualified to serve on the Supreme Court. She should be confirmed and will be a tremendous justice, protecting our Constitution and the rule of law

    Now that the leopards are eating all our faces, she wants them to hurry up about Trump!

15. Nukes them with a warning? Huh?

16. Confirms we are at the end of times: I am cheering for a Cheney.

17. For national security reasons…the greater good

18. Democrats who oppose Supreme Court reform lose my vote this election. We can’t function as a society with political judges.

19. If only she was just as concerned about her father’s behavior…

20. SCOTUS doesn’t exist anymore? Or like, we have 9 new justices? I’m so confused. How were they nuked?

21. How is this a nuke?

22. This is fine. Nuclear war was my retirement plan. I thought it would be the Russians or Chinese, but I’ll accept former Congressperson.

23. Given who she truly represents I’m not inclined to like Liz very much but I do appreciate her trying to tamp down on Trump.

24. She would have voted for all of the justices that Trump nominated. She’s trying to make trump look worse then her dad.

25. what a shitty headline. the scotus has done everything they can to abstract any cases or discussions about january 6th because they don’t want to acknowledge what it was and who was behind it

26. And by “nukes” you mean said mean things?
