The Supreme Court has overturned precedent dozens of times. None of these justices lied.

What was the intended effect of their answers?

“A judge sworn to decide impartially can offer no forecasts, no hints for that would show not only disregard for the specifics of the particular case, it would display disdain for the entire judicial process.”

Ring a bell, ding-a-ling?

We have a renegade court drunk on its own power ignoring precedent left and right.

These protests are the fruit of their dishonest labors.

May their days and nights be full of chaos and disharmony.

Wow. I come from a country where this is actually how things work.

Is that really what you want for America? Very sad.

It is a judicial coup.

That's exactly what they did - they showed the nation their unvarnished political bias and religious taint, and injected the judicial process with disdain.

They lacked impartiality and knew in advance they would overturn it, given the opportunity, and deliberately and deceitfully misled the Senate.

What alternative do we have to holding a rogue Judiciary accountable? They need to be impeached for lying and misleading the Senate.

Sure go ahead and protest their ruling to give wounded veterans job protection. How dare they take away the right of States to fire enployees that got called up for the National Guard and then wounded in action.

But that is not what they said, is it?

The problem with the lifetime appointment to a position of such power is that half the country hopes your life is short. This is inevitably going to translate into violence if the decisions they make are extremely impactful to people's every day lives. Even if 99.9% of Americans would never dream of doing such a thing, that's still a lot of dangerously upset people.

We’re at a crossroads. Do people want the christofascism the GOP and their deep pocket donors are forcing on us, or do we actually want to work to a better America?

Dems are just more discreet about big donors directing policy choices. And the constant use of women and blacks as token everything - nothing ever changes despite the Dems controlling congress and the White House. So - bad as GOP Zia - Dems are no better.

This is the wet dream of the leftists here.

Don't like a ruling? Then, get out and protest and threaten the Justices who ruled in a manner which you don't approve. Keep at it until you force those with whom you disagree out. It has been your tactic with so many issues.

It won't work though. They have proved that they won't be intimidated by the crazies who think it is their "right" to protest and threaten to force the Justices to change their votes.

The same people who justified the riots during the summer of 2020, claiming that it was "only property damage" or "the ends justify the means" are the people condoning this crap. It's all "civil rights" until someone is hurt or killed. And, even then..... the leftists manage to attempt to justify their threats and violence in absurd ways.

This is why so many are voting out the Democrats who just won't condemn the actions their party is taking.

Of the 450 murders committed by political extremists in the past decade, 4% have been committed by left-wing extremists. 75% were committed by right-wing extremists.

We're not the party of threats and violence.

LOL.
James Hodgkinson. He didn't kill anyone, but his intent was to murder many Republicans.
Nicholas John Roske. Again, he didn't murder anyone but his intent was to do just that.
And, I am sure the people who murdered David Dorn were not classified as "political extremists" even though they were looting and destroying as a result of the George Floyd protests.

And, then, let's remember the "summer of love" killings in Seattle at CHAZ, Again, probably not classified as "political extremists."

Somebody needs to hold them accountable, since the rest of our government won’t. When they go low, go lower and lower and lower…and maybe if we go low enough we’ll meet Mitch McConnell hanging out with the devil.

If we're counting failed attempts that would be a different stat, but unless you're saying leftists are more violent but much worse at it, it's still probably about 4% to 75%. In what way does naming crimes refute the stat?

Also January 6th and the GOP response to it erased any moral high ground you could claim relating to violent protest.
