52. A non-treasonous decision from this Supreme Court?

Fri Feb 20, 2026, 12:13 PM

Friday

The exception does not prove the rule. Both the membership of the Court and multiple recent precedents need to be bulldozed. We can't afford to go back to "the way things were"...we will just end up in the same spot or worse. The enemies of democracy are seeking to change the meaning of several parts of the constitution and change the practical effect of the rule of law. If we only play defense we will not weaken the oligopolistic forces. The Supreme Court is still their captive and that needs to be changed if we are going to stop and reverse the authoritarian momentum.
