Yes, they voted for Trump because the system was rigged against them. Unfortunately, the country is just realizing that it's the billionaires and the corrupt, creepy faction of that are the ones who have rigged it against us. Many of us knew that but the average person did not realize it. And apparently 36% of this country still doesn't realize it. How can they still ignore the rampant corruption and sexual exploitation as documented in the Epstein files? How do they not recognize the greed and the power grab after all that has happened in the past year and a half? Do they not have televisions?

The MAGA Racist Corrupt Roberts 6 - Roberts, Alito, Thomas, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, Barrett, once again stuck a knife in the back of American Democracy. This court MUST be reformed and restructured. The Roberts 6 cannot be allowed to get away with this. These 6 must be dealt with.

No lifetime appointments, Term limits (12 years), Ethics Standards, Expand the court, Rotate the Chief Justice every 2 years, appoint an Inspector General of the SC to investigate any hint of corruption, No President can appoint more than 2 justices ever, stagger the terms of the justices, If a justice lies in their hearing they are removed, Impeach and Remove justices, Justices are required to appear before Congressional committees, etc........

This is happening NOW. What do you propose to be done NOW?

Run for office yourself, become an election judge, If any candidate running for any office shows up around you go and ask them questions and push them on what you care about, Question candidates you support and see if they will do things you care about, join organizations that are working for things you care about, support candidates you care about with your time, money, and talents, take part in any local, state, national actions you can to support what you care about (example No Kings), vote in every election you are eligible and make sure everyone you know votes as well, (Trump would not be in office today if people who could have voted (around 11 million or so) would have voted)..... I am pushing my Democratic Senators to introduce a "Supreme Court Reform Act" and even telling them what I would like to see in it. This election could change the entire shape of the current Congress and a beginning of the end of this madness. But every little action everywhere helps to knock down the walls.

Those are very good ideas, i select rotate the chief justice every 2!years, and second: 12 and done, both free existing seats in record time. I was just on the line with Mary T when Dufus showed up and froxe my streting whetitersomeel, couldn’t utter even one more peep. There needs be more discipline than I can access. Is tiresome the nonsense above is his work. He’s being mote careful because he knows the names. He’s making this difgicult nonetheless. I was looking for your analysis of tead pause, and think it over on thread because it was good. My spouse says hot take a kind of insult, me I am only partially in agreement with that. I signed with Weissman to tell me more I don’t know, so he put me on a word diet. I am sweating that already. They want to sell me gentility. I went to a state college, their motto was “we don’t teach what to think, we teach how to think about what you see/hear. Bit of a conflict no/yes.

I guess I sign off there’s no futu re speaking tonite. Guy is a real fresh dunce

You are both Freedom Fighters for our diminishing Constitutional rights. Thanks for all you each do, relentlessly and in the face of political persecution.

Wouldn't be a bad idea to conduct an impartial investigation of the Supremes... all of them... look at their assets, bank accounts (family members too)... all of their accounts and sources of income. Y'know the typical financial investigation that's conducted of all potential crooks, mobsters, et al. I hear the wives of Roberts, Alito, and Thomas have strong political (oligarch) ties.

What a pair you two!!!! I cannot believe you never met! We need your wisdom and leadership.

Robert and Joyce ??? Why would you say that?

Judge Thomas, your legacy is going to be far from what you think it will be and nothing to be proud of.

From Ripley's Believe It Or Not!: Clarence Thomas is the hateful version of Donald Trump. Here we go: 1. Sexual predator, 2. Stalker of women to make himself feel powerful, 3. Experiences daily, even in his black robes, Imposter Syndrome but the syndrome is real and visceral, 4. Lacks academic and intellectual understanding of the law and frankly government and human nature because these areas disrupt the delusions he has created of himself, 5. Though traditionally educated and diploma-ed (new vocab word there!) he is unread and an intellectual illiterate because he never had to show any level of academic and intellectual accomplishment, 6. Sadistic as shown in his judicial decisions, with whom he aligns himself, and his feelings towards the black community and women, 7. Carries a mega-ton chip on his shoulder because he is black, grew up in poverty, and is a little man who feels his smallness every single day, 8. Filled with self-loathing because he knows, he ACUTELY KNOWS, he would only have received admissions to the higher institutions to which he was accepted and his diplomas due to being a first-generation recipient of affirmative action (never on the law review like President Obama!), 9. Has a deep revulsion of and special resentment towards black women especially when they are accomplished, and 10. Lies about his "wealth" (only from wealthy white men to whom he will forever be beholden aka the slave mentality), about his accomplishments, about his family of origin (lies by omission and plain ol' keeping his mouth shut), about being black, marrying a white Christian nationalist in hopes of having that whiteness rub off of him. In the privacy of his chambers or even a bathroom, has he ever acknowledged to himself, while all alone, that he is being used by white powerbrokers? Donald Trump loves the limelight, the kliegs blazing down on him while on a studio set, the tackiness of gold which he associates with power. But Clarence Thomas? He hates everything and everybody, starting with himself.

We are ALL under threat from the billionaires. They have massive control of our lives now and want even more. We MUST reigned them in or it will just get worse than it is already! "Burned By Billionaires: How Concentrated Wealth and Power are Ruining Our Lives and Planet" by Chuck Collins.
