Definitively? What is that

The SCOTUS effectively tested this out when they interfered with the SC of Florida’s decision to continue with the counting of the votes in the 2000 election as Florida’s constitution demanded. December 12, 2000 changed this country more than 9-11 when Bush the Younger was essentially appointed the winner and installed into the White House. Imagine how different a Gore presidency would have been or even if Bush had won after all the ballots in Florida had been counted as the SC of Florida decided was the correct interpretation of it’s constitution. States rights only apply when it can be used as a weapon against civil rights/voting rights that disagree with GOP agenda.

Why does Ohio have a court system when it too can be ignored when inconvenient?

How lightly
How easily
Is the armor of democracy let slip
It melts away
Like morning dew
Soundlessly
With the bare nod of five heads
With the scratch of a pen

I am not ticked at YOU guys, sniffit and inversion. Just, this is REALLY bad.

Well the expanding corruption in the court system will cause The Economist to continue downgrading the US on their Democracy Index. We’ve already dropped to the “Flawed Democracy” category. The corrupted court will only drop us lower into the “Autocracy” level.

Well Kyle still needs a little help from his friends. And ole Nick Fuentes can’t really offer any advice or cheering.

Okies,
SCOTUS could decide to sit this one out, because they shouldn’t yearn for a scenario which invokes the 18th n 19th centuries (in this case, state legislatures picking senators).
SCOTUS should sit this one, because this type of behavior will intensify the court expansion talk.
SCOTUS will however get involved, because this current incarnation stems from 2016 sour grapes muthas who are still hoping for a revolution, that will hopefully destroy them too.
Better?

This is how I felt at the time, and since. Not just guns. The GOP was (in their minds) now free from all moral constraints.

If our now-corrupted Supreme Court does this, thus destroying free democratic elections–on top of its other abuses against long-established precedent that it’s now carrying out–then these words will again become operative and must be invoked:
“We hold these truths to be self-evident: That all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator wjth certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness; that, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed; that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundations on such principles, and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established ought not to be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right them by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security.”
