"Either we listen to the Black lady and let her help us, or we consign our country to an authoritarian takeover. I’m not afraid of that choice." I could quote the entire article, so do yourself a favor and read it.

"The word “unconstitutional” appears nowhere in the Constitution, and the power to decide what is or is not constitutional was not given to the court in the Constitution or by any of the amendments."

I don’t know how to describe the last 15 years other than to say most Republicans revealed that they would rather have a white king than a Black president.

"...it’s important to point out that this argument is not actually a legal one. It is a religious argument: The court is saying the law cannot be interpreted absent the justices’ exclusive interpretation of God’s will."

For those playing along at home, Thomas, and Roberts, who think the states have the right to prevent pregnant people from receiving health care and make it harder for poor people and Blacks to vote... suddenly think that the states maybe don't have a lot of power after all.

Yesterday's big Supreme Court case wasn't really about an esoteric doctrinal theory. It was about *power*. The conservative Supreme Court justices want it, want the power to make policy, and want to take it away from you. My latest in @thenation thenation.com/article/societ…

Roberts is really trying to tell himself that none of this matters because Chevron isn't important anymore. Roberts is good at... inventing a world that doesn't exist and then living in it.
