Tonight, an extraordinary order, opinion, and dissent make explicit that the ongoing cold Second American Civil War is raging at the U.S.

But Sam Alito just cannot handle a dissent from Brown that explains that he and the other Roberts Court judges who went along with him are nakedly using their privilege and authority to advantage the Republican Fascist Party and its white supremacist agenda. 7/
@heidilifeldman cc @jwz look man, I'm ready for two countries. Fuck SCOTUS. That's no longer the United States I believe in. I dissent... permanently. California should secede... anything else is utter cowardice at this point.

@codinghorror @heidilifeldman @jwz Why should *we* leave? We are the majority and we are right.

@codinghorror @heidilifeldman @jwz secession would guarantee these motherfuckers never face justice, because Democrats would never win another presidential election without those electoral votes. And, they need to face justice.

@evan @heidilifeldman @jwz we aren’t leaving. We’re creating something even greater than they can possibly imagine. A new constitution. A better one.

@swelljoe @heidilifeldman @jwz they will face the justice of living with the consequences of their actions for the rest of their lives.

@codinghorror I’m not from the US, so to a degree none of my business, and definitely outside my expertise. But.. would this work? The one historical attempt to secede didn’t go so well. Wouldn’t the federal government just roll in with the military again? Or is the idea that California’s economic power is such that Washington couldn’t do that?
(Genuine questions from someone trying to understand your position, btw. Absolutely not trying to poke holes or even “just ask questions”.)

@heidilifeldman Alito, Gorsuch, and Thomas should be dropped into a deep dark hole and drink rainwater and eat bugs for the rest of their lives.
Now, THAT’S what lack of restraint looks like.
I dunno. Seems kind of restrained to me.
-
Finally, Alito concludes by chastising Jackson: “It is the dissent’s rhetoric that lacks restraint.” 10/
@heidilifeldman so, let me get this straight: the rebuttal from what is supposed to be one of the preëminent juridical minds of the nation is, "No, U"…?
-
All of this has happened on the shadow docket. So the Roberts Court has ok’d election cancellation without merits briefing, oral argument, etc.
This would be extraordinary and pernicious enough. But because Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissented and pointed out how exceptional and dangerous the Court’s order is, Alito, joined by Gorsuch and Thomas, wrote an opinion basically calling her uppity. 4/
@heidilifeldman Not an expert on US history, but even I know that word and its ugliness.

@rjblaskiewicz @lerxst @heidilifeldman So you have seen the painting in Bruges about the unjust judge?

@swelljoe @codinghorror @heidilifeldman @jwz after 26+ years, we are no longer waiting for justice in Venezuela. Life is too short.

@lerxst @rjblaskiewicz @heidilifeldman So many schoolchildren get a trauma from visiting Bruges. I wish I could say that we improved, that torture doesn't happen anymore.
Loved your alt text, with the word invented by your brother.
Edit: TIL that the correct name of this punishment is flaying, and they didn't stop at one side for Sisamnes. -

Hemidermectomy was a word that my brother made up when he was learning classical roots of words in high school. It is the stuff of legend in the Blaskiewicz household.

@rjblaskiewicz @lerxst @heidilifeldman the little scene in the top right shows a new judge later on (his son) with the empty skin draped around his chair as a reminder.

@heidilifeldman Perhaps a better name for the country would be something like „The Biblical Patriarchy of the Confederate States of Apartheid America“ which I'm sure Musk & Thiel would adore. They might even want to induct Jan Smuts, Daniël François Malan and Ian Smith into the ranks of „founding fathers,“ which I'm sure they can bribe/lobby into reality. (Do usanians have any idea how cultish the „founding fathers“ talk sounds to the rest of the world?)
