We’re facing a potential future where “every June for the rest of your life is going to be like this one, or worse.”

Kang was putting lawyer brain on blast, and rightly so. Law school is not just education—it is indoctrination, whether or not professors even want to do it. There are certainly more centrist and liberal professors than there are conservative ones. But across the spectrum, these professors are part of the system. They have a vested interest in perpetuating the system.

We entered this process with lawyer brain, as part of this group of elites who all share the same assumption that the system works and we’re guardians of it. We exited it disgusted by how corrupt this system is and how devastating the consequences of our complicity have beenAbsolutely. The same is true of Sherrilyn Ifill, former head of the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, a big-time civil rights lawyer, one of the greats.

You’ve laid out a pretty good case that the issues with the Supreme Court start before you get to the court—they start with judges lower down the spectrum, and they start in law school. Even if we can’t remake the Supreme Court, there’s a bigger issue of courts more generally, because Republicans have been so laser-focused on appointing judges for a long time.

Good thing we finally have a non-rogue Supreme Court! You know, one that does their exact job perfectly, no more, no less - to be the final arbiters of law, to interpret the constitutionality of laws, to be the guardians of the Constitution. They are NAILING it!

MOAR!!!!!

Rogue Supreme Court opened for New Hope in ‘76 at the Scarif Center

No Biden doesn’t, thankfully. ConstitutionalRepublic

Sure, but this isn't a rogue SCOTUS. This is a constitutional SCOTUS. It just seems weird, because we haven't had one for a long time. We've also been browbreaten for decades into believing that separation of powers doesn't matter, and judicial activism is right and just.

Slate gonna Slate (slate in this case means make everything up).

No. They don’t. 😂

Cry harder

This is not true. Like, at all.

Nope.

“If Congress just passed a bill that says we’re adding four seats, Biden could sign it and then fill those seats. And that would be that.”

What a shitty, misleading, and actually blatantly false title

...'with a one page bill, Biden could add 4 Justices to SCOTUS and that's it.' Mitch would do it!!!

if congress passes a bill to expand it? yeah thanks for this

He might have the power but lacks the stones.

In light of EPA court ruling, new focus on states' powerThe Supreme Court decision June 30 restricting the authority of the Environmental Protection Agency may mean continued pollution from power plants in states that are not switching to cleaner energy. You are completely wrong. The Supreme Court's decision did not limit the power of the federal government to regulate greenhouse gases. The ruling only stated that under current legislation adopted by Congress, EPA lacked the power under that law to take certain actions. The statement that the 'Supreme Court limited the power of the federal government to regulate . . . '. Is a false statement and will mislead people into believing that Congress's powers were somehow limited. Under our Constitution, the United States Congress adopts laws. The legislative power is vested in Congress, not the Executive branch. Perhaps you could have a civics teacher or lawyer proofread your articles.
