reminder: this court is split 7 libs (obama +biden) to 4 republicans (3 trump + 1 GHWB), and every 3 judge panel always contains 2 trump appointees, for....reasons.
JUST IN: A 2-1 panel of the D.C. Circuit rules that Trump may remove members of the NLRB or MSPB regardless of laws meant to shield them from removal without cause.

Majority: Rao (Trump), Katsas (Trump)
Dissent: Pan (Biden)

This is why I can’t stand all the pie-in-the-sky fantasies about what a progressive president will do with unitary executive power.

The next Democratic president won’t be able to take a dump without the Supreme Court upholding a ruling by a Texas judge that presidents are no longer allowed to shit.

“What’s your plan for the Court?” is the only question that matters for 2028 Democratic hopefuls, because if they don’t, the Republican Super Legislature is hatcheting their agenda before it can get off the ground.
#BREAKING: Over dissents from the three democratic appointees, #SCOTUS puts Texas's new House maps back into effect for (and, presumably, through) the 2026 midterms.

The three Democratic appointees, in an opinion by Justice Kagan, dissent.

I'll post the ruling shortly.

This is gonna sound a bit [bong rip] but it's weird how a SCOTUS this brazenly fucked still functions as the be-all end-all of American law, like there's no mechanism available to just be like "hey, this court is *obviously* just making shit up, so, no thank you."

It feels like a cheat code.

Pretty notable, in my view, that Kagan points out the Supreme Court's pro-gerrymandering decision in Texas is a step-by-step instruction manual for states to draw discriminatory maps while ducking judicial review, and the majority has...nothing to say in response www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/25p...

Simply amazing that the Supreme Court declared an end to legal race discrimination in the affirmative action case two years ago and now allows overt racism in both immigration arrests and redistricting.

Using race to help minorities? Bad. Using it to discriminate against them? Very, very good.

the democratic response to this must be, in the words of @dennycarter.bsky.social, to go goblin mode on redistricting in the states where they have a trifecta. eliminate every republican district in those states.
This isn't a Supreme Court, it's just six Republican operatives imposing law on the rest of us in order to help Trump and MAGA destroy the Constitution and impose authoritarian rule.
BREAKING: Supreme Court sides with Texas Republicans in fight over congressional map. The new gerrymandered map will be used in the 2026 midterms. The vote is 6–3, with the Republican appointees siding with Texas.

we are going to need a program, something that makes the new deal look like a footnote, to unfuck this country. the last 10+ years (really, 30+ years) have been a huge downward spiral. people are going to need to be hypnotized or whatever to break them from the spell. we cant continue on like this

One thing I think normies would support (after all This) is some kind of anti-corruption federal agency with a flashy name and hyperbolic daily pressers about going after everyone in the Trump orbit. Folks would tune in and pay attention.

Wow, Adm. Holsey didn't leave of his own accord, Hegseth pushed him out. What looked like the SOCOM head resigning rather than do war crimes now looks like SecDef canning him to facilitate war crimes.

Congress should have him testify, and would've already if war-crime-sympathetic GOP didn't run it.
