This edition of the Supreme Court seems determined to distinguish itself with the worst decisions by any SCOTUS body in history. They accept cases that have no logical basis for review; they overturn historic decisions (Roe v. Wade) even though they said under oath to Congress that they would respect precedent; they strip the Federal Government agencies (that is, the experts) of their role in making interpretations of administrative regs; they support the availability of bump stock devices in the hands of private citizens when there is no legitimate purpose for such devices; they accept bribes from political mega donors without reporting or paying taxes on the values when discovered; they visit foreign enemy countries and consort with known dictators who oppose American interests; they grant presidential immunity far beyond the limits of the office; and they protect corrupt politicians because they belong to a specific Party. And the worst is yet to come if the November election is decided–not by the American voters–but by the so-called Supreme Court. Every act they perform is totally immune from investigation. Our Federal Government has handed a universal “get-out-of-jail free” card to an entity with the expectation that those so-anointed will act in the best interest of the democracy. And that concept seems to have worked until the Trump era. The Roberts court will carry the stigma of bias, perjury, tax evasion, traitorous consort with enemy nations and conspiracy with a specific political Party–the GOP. The only way to fix this problem is to elect a Democratic super-majority in the US Congress that gives the Democratic president the ability to appoint justices who will honor their oath. Keep that in mind as you enter the ballot box in November.
