Could you at least try & stop obeying the fascists in advance?
Reminder: Federal judges, including SCotUS, can deputize as many citizens as needed to enforce their rulings & there are thousands of highly trained park rangers currently out of a work.
If park rangers turn out to be the saviors of our democracy then I will gladly donate to the forest service the next time I'm out at a campsite.
Perfect!
She was put there to do exactly what she's doing now...
She's a woman that belongs to a cult that thinks women should be subservient ...

She was a literal handmaid. Not just in action, that's what women were called in her cult:
Acting like ABC in any capacity is going to help fight fascism isn't just useless, it's actively harmful
No matter what she says, this is the result she wants and why she's on the SC in the first place.
*ACB though ABC (US) will also do nothing to stop fascism
That implies that the supreme Court has not been in the business of expressly enabling the majority of the shit he's been doing, which is pretty fucking dishonest.
"Justice Amy Coney Barrett admits that SCOTUS has abdicated its duty."
FTFY
One of the 6 in every 6-3 decision to help Trump get out of control thinks he's out of control, waow
And it's your fault!!! Fuck off! I hope the history books eviscerate you bunch of spineless shitweasels. I hope everyone related to you become social pariahs because of your fascist-fellating bastardry.
...the only way this could happen is if the SUPREME COURT of the UNITED STATES of AMERICA, consented...
It's not the the Supreme Court can't control the president, it's that they choose not to.
Oh no... The consequences of my actions... Oh no...
Thanks to you and your five other Nazi friends you cunt.
If they admit this — we have a King. If they don’t do anything about it — they are sycophants and need to step down.
"Coney Barrett then admitted that the court’s hands would largely be tied because there is a limited enforcement mechanism at its disposal."
Only fix I can think of would be to take the Justice Department away from the Executive Branch and place it under the Judicial Branch, but that would involve re-writing the Constitution and that's a door we definitely DO NOT want to open.
Oh here we go they are giving Trump more "outs" from rule of law. Fantastic.
In a functioning government, that is not a structure that we would want because then judges would not be a neutral 3rd party (at least as intended).
There may be merit in the idea of moving the Inspector Generals under the Judicial branch however the but even that would require rewriting the constitution.
In reality, congress is supposed to have this responsibility, but our current congress is broken for a number of reasons.
who says there needs to be 3 branches? add a 4th… having a partisan DOJ makes the judicial basically powerless
Personally, I think that America should be split into four regions, each with their own congress, president, and judiciary. The supreme court can have each region submit four of their retired regional judges apiece to serve the nation as a whole. Plus another five judges, each chosen by a regional president, and a figurehead president who was elected by the other presidents. Toss in term and age limits, to make sure that they are swapped with fresh minds relatively often.
21 national justices, with a lot more checks and balances.
Remember, they’re rubber-stamping fascism to avoid looking weak when Donald inevitably sidelines them.
Well, Uncle Clarence is probably a true believer.
ACB is an integral part of the Nazi regime. She can eat a bag of dicks.
The correct answer would be, "Nothing, because the Supreme Court doesn't have an enforcement arm. That's for the Legislative and Executive branches to handle." Even if there were 9 hyper progressive judges on the court, if the other 2 branches were controlled by fascists, like they are now, there would be fuck all they could do if their rulings were simply ignored.
Someone said they could deputize their own enforcement outside the DoJ if it really came down to it? But not sure how that'd work at scale, only in an isolated way.

Really?
Republican incompetence masquerading as republican power.
No really you treasonous twat?
Part of the reason the SCOTUS has been avoiding ruling against trump is that they don't want to be in that "Emperor has no clothes" position where he defies them with impunity and everyone sees that they have no power over him and his minions at all. The other part is that at least 4 of them are delighted by his actions and 2 are at least OK enough with what he does to go along with those 4.
So the people in the checks and balances can’t do their job? Check and balance that orangutang!!!!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣have the day you voted for America 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣#clowncountry
