  1. Presidential immunity could be rationalized if we weren’t about to have 4+ more years of President Pyschopath.

  2. Incentive alignment is all anyone in politics should be talking about and demanding. This is an example of misalignment, and the consequences of such misalignment.

    Problem is it comes to self-enforcement. And no human, honestly, self-enforced in a 100% unbiased way.

    Edit: spelling

  4. The Roberts Court will go down as one of the worst in US History. Citizens United alone is ridiculous.

  5. That the court’s turn to Trumpist Theocrat Monarchy that uses the Constitution as toilet paper leads to nobody taking its rulings seriously shouldn’t shock him.

    If he wants it to be listened to, its rulings shouldn’t come across as outcome driven dribblings from confused clerical council.

  6. Roberts and his cronies on the court are self-serving, bought and paid for agents for the right.

  10. Ok it’s time for Term limits for Justices maybe 10 years

  11. Clarence Thomas’ “shut up, you whiny babies” response to the protests following the leaked Roe v. Wade draft ruling was as dismissive as it was condescending:

    In May 2022, Thomas told us that SCOTUS was immune to pressure to follow the constitution or precedence/stare decisis: “[As a society, we are becoming addicted to wanting particular outcomes, not living with the outcomes we don’t like. We can’t be an institution that can be bullied into giving you just the outcomes you want. The events from earlier this week are a symptom of that.](https://www.reuters.com/world/us/after-abortion-leak-justice-thomas-warns-supreme-court-cant-be-bullied-2022-05-06/)”

  12. “Chief Justice Roberts chastises others for being corrupt scumbags while being the Chief corrupt scumbag”.

    Everyone that encounters the evil six should spit in their direction whenever they’re outside their I’m a brazen scumbag protection walls.

  18. Fuck you John Roberts. Your court abandoned the Chevron deference in the largest judicial power grab in history. You *chose* to wade into politics when your court overturned decades of precedent – many, many times. You, and your cronies at the Federalist Society, openly chose to use the Court to achieve Republican policy goals that couldn’t be accomplished legislatively. Your Court decided that, after accepting *millions* in unreported gifts, you *still* wouldn’t be bound by any code of ethics.

    You have overseen the most corrupt and political Court – possibly in history – and you have the *gall* to say that we shouldn’t call your Court either of those things things? In the vernacular of political leaders of today GO FUCK YOUR OWN FACE.

  20. lol. how transparent. we all know he’s trying to defend aileen canon😂

  21. Going down in history as one of the worst supreme court justices of all time. I hope he is happy. You spoiled a noble institution and went against what the founding fathers envisioned for your own personal gain!

  23. I’ll feel differently after the Roberts’ majority is convicted of perjury. Until then, the fascist 6 can shut the fuck up.

  25. Says the dude who gave the president the power to ‘official act’ like he doesn’t hear a damn thing the judiciary says

  26. Justice Robert’s can be fucked, just like Mike Lee!

  27. Man with poop on fingers points out others don’t wash hands after bathroom

  28. It still sickens me that six or seven of the nine justices will be placed there by Trump when his term finally ends.

  29. Supreme Court is a joke. Might as well put up a sign for going rates. Just like president T, sold for 100 million

  32. Punk doesn’t want to pay the cost for his decisions.
