Trump asked Texas to rig the map. They did.
A court ruled it was unconstitutional.
SCOTUS said nothing…just reversed it.
Justice Kagan warns: “This Court’s precedents and our Constitution demand better.”

The MAGA supermajority on the Supreme Court just gave Texas permission to erase the voting power of millions of people of color through racist gerrymandering.
This isn’t just a legal decision. It’s a greenlight to rig the midterms in favor of the GOP.

The whole point of the FTC is to be insulated from political pressure.
Yet Trump is asking his MAGA Justices to re-write the rules for him so he can pick loyalists.
He says he should be able to fire anyone, anytime, for any reason.
If they let him, there’s no going back.

Costco isn’t playing games.
They're not waiting for the Supreme Court—they’re demanding a refund on Trump’s unconstitutional tariffs.
This is what happens when one man plays president AND Congress.
We need checks. Not rubber stamps.

Imagine googling “abortion clinic near me.”
You show up.
It’s not a clinic—it’s a Crisis Pregnancy Center that won’t give you medical care, but will give you a sermon.
That’s what NJ tried to investigate.
And now the MAGA Supreme Court may block the investigation entirely.

Roberts built a court that expects presidents to break the law — and protects them when they do.
What happened to checks and balances?

A Trump-appointed judge blocked Texas’ racial gerrymander.
Read that again. Even he said it went too far.
Now Trump’s MAGA-packed Supreme Court —led by John Roberts, who gutted the Voting Rights Act— gets to decide if it stands anyway.
This isn’t neutral. It’s engineered.

Let’s stop pretending John Roberts is some moderate saving democracy.
He gutted voting rights. Greenlit gerrymandering. Shielded billionaires. And now he’s built a Court that rubber-stamps Trump’s every move.
This crisis didn’t appear overnight. It was designed.

Republicans in Texas tried to draw five new GOP seats by slicing up Black and Latino communities.
A federal court said: Nope. That’s illegal racial gerrymandering.
Now they’re running to SCOTUS for backup.

97.4% of immigrants detained in Chicago had no criminal record.
They weren’t the “worst of the worst.”
They were daycare workers, landscapers, cab drivers.
The Roberts Court says that’s fine.
They greenlit racial profiling, and called it law.

Can the U.S. block asylum-seekers on the Mexican side of the border, and act like they never came?
The Trump admin says yes.
The 9th Circuit said no: that would “radically contract” asylum rights.
Now it’s up to SCOTUS.
We’ve seen this 6–3 movie before.

We expect Trump to ignore the rules.
We expect him to abuse executive power.
But the Supreme Court is supposed to stop that.
Instead, they’re letting it happen—again and again.
That’s not checks and balances. That’s complicity.

The SNAP fight may be over—but never forget.
Trump was literally fighting in court to withhold food from families & veterans during a shutdown he caused—all while partying at Mar-a-Lago.
And the Roberts Court almost helped him do it.
Only Justice Jackson dissented.

The SNAP stay got extended. But something unusual happened.
The order doesn’t say Justice Jackson referred it to the full Court.
That’s the tell.
It means Jackson not only dissented—she made sure no one mistook her for going along with it.
A quiet message with big implications.

SCOTUS refused to stop Tremane Wood’s execution.
Even though the jury was rigged. Prosecutors lied. His lawyer was on cocaine. His brother confessed but only got life. Oklahoma’s pardon board said: spare him.

If SCOTUS signs off on Trump’s National Guard argument, they won’t just be rewriting a law, they’ll be writing a blank check for any president to militarize policing in any city they choose.
Using the U.S. military against its own citizens is NOT public safety. That’s authoritarian drift.

Trump isn’t just refusing to feed veterans — he’s dragging the Supreme Court into it.
He’s gone to them twice in one week to block food benefits that millions, including 1.2 million veterans, rely on.
He knows this Court serves him, not the people.

A Reagan-appointed judge just gave up his lifetime seat so he could speak freely about Trump.
His message? Trump is using the law for partisan purposes.
He says Trump is doing “overtly and routinely” what Nixon only dared to do in secret.
This isn’t politics. It's a warning.

So Trump went running to the only institution corrupt enough to side with him: SCOTUS.
And like clockwork, they chose Trump over hungry families.
