I dare her to shoot off her mouth just one more time.
She's so unimpressive.

(129,651 posts)out of its collective ass that allow a state to stop counting ballots when they get the win they wanted (Bush v. Gore); or that unlimited secret donations to candidates are constitutionally-protected speech (Citizens United); that women don't have the right to autonomy over their bodies (Dobbs v. Jackson); and that a president can commit crimes in office with almost complete impunity (Trump v. U.S.). Activism is bad only when the court upholds existing laws that MAGA doesn't like.
was a pretty activist decision, and that is a couple hundred years old now.

(24,869 posts)The only check on his power (except for one Ill explain) is the Court. If they rule his actions are un-Constitutional, then Congress might impeach Trump to stop his excesses.
But this Congress wont bring charges and this Senate wont convict. So, Trump can ignore the Courts and proceed unhindered.
Unless the military intervenes. That is a development we definitely do not want.
My personal view is that we are fucked.
Peace and be safe.
