I have a 30-minute drive home from work, and I listened to this episode from 41:32 to 46:22 on repeat the whole way for it to really sink in. So very well written and delivered too.

At what point do we physically fight for our country. How long do we have to see the institutions being dismantled, people getting illegally imprisoned, or the president profiting off of power unconfronted.
The courts no longer have authority, and our politicians lack spines.

What will it take?
Who else but SCOTUS to choose WHEN rulings are "subject to narrow exceptions recognized by our precedents."
This bench is disappointing and lacking a spine. Vote no, hope yes politicking has ruined this country. Period.
The difficulty is in convincing people that the short-term pain is better than the long-term agony
Or will the senate democrats say, "This is what you voted for, now see what it got you." Without realizing they have some spine left to stand with
@iwriteok.bsky.social What's worse regarding the looming government shutdown - handing the reigns over for the next 4 years to avoid being seen as a disruptor or enduring 6 months of hardship to stand up for things we don't want to see get worse?
