Thomas: Ethics are for poors
Is that a textualist or originalist interpretation of the constitution?
In other words…
Are the Supreme Priests going to go by the strict definition of the words or the way they feel the founding fathers intended the words? Ahh who am I kidding?? They are just playing…
"Who’s line is it anyway?: Supreme Edition
The court where everything’s made up and the constitution don’t matter"
And yet there are 0 consequences for not doing so. What is Congress going to do?
And the chances of it actually leading to removal from SCOTUS hover around zero.
What are the consequences if state or federal government decided not to follow a Supreme Court ruling? It’s up to the Attorney General to enforce the laws of the Justice Department and that position is a presidential appointee.
Congress can also impose a mandate on the executive branch if they got out of hand. The issue is SCotUS is clearly out of hand now, yet congress is doing nothing. The whole “checks and balances” system is idealistic and clearly flawed.
impose a mandate
the law for us poors is “do it or men with guns will put you in a box”. what men with guns does congress have to force the president to do what scotus tell him to?
Correction Democratic Senators call for ethics code, Republican Senators say the branches should not monitor each other.
Seriously. Why are they getting handouts when they can legally get rich on insider trading, like normal Congress members? (/s in case you think I’m serious)
A guillotine should be fine, behead a couple corrupt judges and the rest should fall in line quickly enough.
Yeah nothing like going old-school French Revolution and killing a few million people then having a couple civil wars to really sus out who is a “true American.”
They call it the Reign of Terror because it was so much fun!
It’s not about being a true american, it’s about finally putting up a boundary against fascism. Granted, Robespierre was doing his own brand of fascism with the guillotine but we don’t have to repeat this part of history.
