"We're concerned about the practical implications of individual states being able to take candidates off the ballot."

"But the practical implications of your ruling basically erases a constitutional amendment."

Nothing more constitutional than nullifying the Constitution.

The doublethink being flagrantly exhibited by the court at this point should beggar belief… but honestly, I don’t think anybody is surprised anymore. To be perfectly frank: we expect it. Overall national confidence in the integrity of the Supreme Court is fairly shattered nowadays.

I guess Roberts’s plan to burnish his historical legacy is to help the Republic of Gilead establish itself and ask them to build him a statue in exchange. What a fucking limpdick.

The Roberts court is illegitimate.

Period.
