Do you mean who's in charge of the supreme court? Theoretically it is non-partisan, in reality it is currently Republican stacked.

[-] SoyViking@hexbear.net 56 points 2 months ago

An American politician who claims they want to do good stuff but who is not ready to break the power of the supreme court it's simply not serious about what they're saying.

sure, and so what? there's a lot the democrats could still do, yet refuse

[-] half_giraffe@hexbear.net 44 points 2 months ago

Yeah obviously the president of the US and the Senate couldn't possibly be controlled by Democrats, because otherwise they would have the absolute ability to remake the supreme court. It's too bad, gosh it sucks that we live under the control of Republicans who control every arm of the federal government.

The Supreme Court is stacked yes

It's stacked because the Democrats absolutely rolled over every fucking time. When the Republicans blatantly tried to steal a seat nomination from Obama, the Democrats went "wow that is so rude" and did fuck all to stop it

They're in power now and when all these anti queer laws started they continued to do absolutely fuck all about it

Democrats will not lift a finger to protect your rights

I'm pretty sure that immunity ruling means that Joe Biden is technically within his rights to annul the supreme court via JDAM at any time
