Not sure why but every single trend/topic pops up like this... Can't access any topic. Why @X ? Some glitch?
Some new form of harassment? Twitter is so effen effed.
Rose garden, colonnade, oval office, East wing, reflecting pool… and now the cherry blossoms? This guy is single-handedly destroying Washington history and the Republicans just keep allowing it. Aren’t they supposed to be conservative??
Conserve something.
The real headline from the birthright‑citizenship case isn’t the outcome. It’s that four Supreme Court justices signaled they believe a president can effectively rewrite the Constitution through executive order.
@RichRaho@Zebusrugby Oh so we’re detaining nuns for funsies now. As if little children, pregnant women, actual citizens, law-abiding immigrants etc wasn’t enough, they just really want to PROVE they’re evil I guess.
I’m not going to hail Barrett and Roberts for allowing us to count our votes. It’s a huge win for democracy, but it shouldn’t have even been a question. That we were one vote away from disenfranchising votes is all the more reason to expand the court in 2029.
When the Chief Justice blocks an enforceable ethics code while right-wing billionaires buy influence, the court loses all legitimacy. John Roberts has broken his oath. Congress has the tool to fix this: Impeachment. Demand your reps back the charges now: 👇 https://t.co/YNSdo72WFd #SaveHousingFromTrump
@highbrow_nobrow A "Christian" that considers 2 3rds of the country the enemy should not be representing and speaking on behalf of congress. Repent & Resign...
BREAKING: Calls to expand the Supreme Court EXPLODE after they ruled that Americans can't sue the maker of Roundup weedkiller for causing cancer — blocking thousands of lawsuit.
These Republican justices are utterly corrupt...
"Impeach the corrupt right-wing justices and pack the fucking court already. Enough," wrote leftist commentator Kyle Kulinski on X.
"SCOTUS rules Monsanto/Bayer can’t be sued for omitting a warning even if their herbicides do cause cancer. Even if the legal reasoning of the court is sound in this case, it’s a blatant travesty of justice," Republican Congressman Thomas Massie wrote on X. "Congress and the President can fix this and we absolutely should."
The court's decision to side with Bayer — which became the manufacturer of Roundup after they purchased the maker Monsanto in 2018 — is the latest in a long string of decisions in which the justices have sided with corporate interests over the welfare of the American people. In its current state, with a Republican majority, the Supreme Court functions as just another arm of these massive companies.
They ruled against a Missouri man who convincingly argued that his cancer was caused by Roundup. A jury had previously awarded him $1.25 million. The Trump administration supported Monsanto in this case, removing any lingering doubt that the "Make America Healthy Again" shtick was a farce. This White House was always going to choose profits over people.
The decision comes after Bayer was hit by a deluge of lawsuits for failing to properly warn customers that their product can cause cancer. The justices' incredibly tenuous logic was that because federal regulations have not found the cancer link in question, a label is not required and failure-to-warn lawsuits at a state level are illegitimate.
Jay Feldman of Beyond Pesticides, a health and environmental group, called the ruling "a tragic setback for public and environmental health,."
It's time we stop pretending that the Supreme Court is some sacred, nonpartisan institution. Right-wingers have spent decades stacking it with reactionary ideologues in order to undermine the public interest and entrench the power of the super-rich and corporations. Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito literally take bribes from billionaires in the form of lavish gifts and trips. They're not even pretending at legitimacy.
That leaves us with one option. Since the court is now nothing more than a partisan battleground, we need to start taking territory. Expand the court and nominate liberal justices to seize back control of our democracy!
Please ❤️ and share if you support expanding the court!
I can’t even express how much I hate this timeline. Our wealth is our land & animals & natural beauty & it is being taken by a handful of insatiably greedy individuals
