Dude. Yes. Alito and Thomas are of course the standout examples, but all of the Republican justices have tells in their writing and their questioning indicating that they are, to varying degrees, marinating their brains in dumb bitch juice
My theory, fwiw, is that Supreme Court Justices are not immune to Twitter brain poisoning. I suspect all six have horrific information environments and have therefore lost the ability to understand the people who don't agree with them.
The part that I can't figure out is what John Roberts thinks he is doing. He used to seem to be a judge who was very attentive to appearances, I think on a theory that you can't draw too much attention to yourself without undermining your ability to continue to shape the law.

Why do I have to exhaustively cover Trump via complex curatorial journalism when columnists at the WSJ get to write sentences like "Olivia Nuzzi is the kind of entertaining, possibly unstable character you might come to regret bumming a cigarette from late at night in a college dorm"?

Netflix getting Warner Bros. is bad for art, but right-wing oligarchs not getting it is bad for fascism.
The Ellisons already got Paramount and Fox-ified CBS, plus a big stake in TikTok USA and more.
On balance, avoiding more Orban-style media consolidation is a good outcome.
Such are the times.

With Trump distracted and disinterested, Republicans can't get their act together to extend the enhanced ACA tax credits, knowing voters will (deservedly) deal them a punishing blow if they don't.
This is a preview of the moral and political mess that will be the post-Trump GOP.
