    i’m completely ignorant, so take this with a spoon of salt. but, i feel like the SC has found its legs lately. still not perfect, but that was never intended, but it looks like the product of a lot of long, long discussions. it looks like a good thing to me for now

      I think they’re appearing more sensible lately since this administration is so batshit crazy. It’s one of the perks of lifetime terms with a high barrier for removal. They’re not beholden to any political party or branch and they’re free to rule as they see fit without fear of retribution, even the Trump appointees.

        I’m not so sure about that.

        i totally agree. interesting to see how far that guy has strayed from conservative ideology as shown in the highest court.
