The Republican hacks on SCOTUS start with whatever ruling will help their fellow Republican partisans and lazily work backwards from there, barely offering an excuse for their egregious hackery.
John Roberts keeps complaining no one respects them. Yeah, because we’re actually paying attention.

When I first got to Minnesota years ago, my roomie and I (both transplants from Back East) shared a duplex building with two Somali grad students. They became great pals to us. We were all new to this strange place in varying degrees, and they really helped it feel like home. Trump’s a racist pig.
The president fails to realize how deeply Somali Americans love this country.
We are doctors, teachers, and elected leaders working to make our country better.
We will not let Trump intimidate or debilitate us. My op-ed:
