With the 6-month delay and ruling today, the emboldened, militant far right Supreme Court has cemented its political affiliation with Thingamabob and essentially given him broad immunity. The way is now paved for autocracy and dictatorship. As president, he is unshackled and free to commit crimes against anyone he chooses. Is this really a surprise? No! Disappointing and extremely scary though! Along with Chief Justices Sotomayor and Jackson and President Biden, I too dissent! Combined with overturning the long-standing precedents Roe v. Wade and Chevron v. NRDC, I, as well as others, believe we are witnessing the collapse in legitimacy of the Supreme Court. It’s been brewing. Remember Bush v. Gore in 2000 when a similar ultra-conservative Republican majority gave the presidency to Bush? No more sugarcoating this hijacking of our democracy.

It’s an understatement that we’re at an inflection point. We have to vote for the democratic ticket in November and win even if elder Joe with feeble moments is still on it. Kamala can easily step in.
