"It's insulting to expect us to play by the rules" is pretty much the Republican platform since Newt Gingrich.
Mike Johnson speaks out against the use of judicial warrants in immigration cases:
"Imagine if we had to go through the process of getting a judicial warrant"

The Republican Speaker, who swore an oath to uphold the Constitution, says it's more important to round up their list of undesirables as quickly as possible than whether anyone's rights are violated.
Republicans: The 2nd Amendment is sacrosanct and absolute
Also Republicans: The 4th Amendment is just bureaucratic red tape and you must allow our paramilitary force to storm your home

The delay from SCOTUS on tariffs makes sense. The conservative justices are trying to solve a three-body problem: give Trump kingly powers, keep corporations safe from tariffs, and make sure no Democrat ever gets to use the same toys.

He tells us what he’ll do.
We laugh, then it happens.
He promised invasion; he invaded.
He promised troops at home; they’re here.
He promised retribution; prosecutors and investigators are now targets.
He seized ballots; he’s calling to seize elections.
This isn’t bluster; it’s a plan.

There's a prominent Republican congressman who met his current wife when she was in high school and he was in his 40s, and it's just treated like no big deal by his caucus.
Worth remembering when they dismiss the Epstein Files stuff as no big deal.

Pretty wild to me how many pundits and academics treated Republican opposition to the notion of Supreme Court expansion during the Biden administration as a serious, principled stance, as opposed to a position Republicans would obviously abandon the moment it became convenient
Republicans Love Supreme Court Expansion When It Gets Them What They Want
When it comes to state supreme courts, Republican politicians have been happy to add (or subtract) justices as they see fit.
