With the nine justices reconvened for the fall term, SFGATE columnist Drew Magary is here to remind us all to stay angry and demand change.

The Supreme Court convened last week for its fall term, a prospect that now elicits more dread in the average liberal than 90-degree days in October.

For the moment, neither Joe Biden nor some of our oldest, most intransigent Democratic senators are inclined to do anything of substance about the court, save for making the justices sign a pledge to be nicer that Samuel Alito will wipe his ass with. And while the legacy media has joined ProPublica in outlining the ethical lapses that are a defining feature of this court, they still lean toward treating it with the kind deference it long ago ceased to merit.
