Some Democrats asked whether Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. could be impartial after an upside-down flag flew at his home following the 2021 U.S. Capitol attack.
He has something of a history of flying flags in support of the insurrection.
congress could remove alito today, if they wanted.
so, why havent they? oh yeah, a huge percent of them are his corrupt allies.
annnnnnd its well known that mcconnel was just the front man taking the heat for our shitty congress . he wasnt working alone, in a vacuum. he took the brunt of the bad because there are so many incredibly stupid people in the his home state as to make he re-election a given.
Dems removed filibuster for all appointment except scotus in 2013 then R’s removed for scotus in 2017. Now republicans could have done it anyway on 2017 even without precedent, and Democrats could have forced merick garland in if they had gone fully nuclear. I’d call it equally shared
Let’s be perfectly clear here: Mitch McConnell has led to a corrupt SCOTUS, not Congress.
congress could remove alito today, if they wanted.

You’re using the word “Congress” to refer to Congressional Republicans, and it’s disingenuous.
naw. i meant what i said. dems are complicit here.
hell, the if dems had any testicles they would remove the filibuster and get on with actual governing.
They did… That’s why McConnell was able to get the current picks in. SCOTUS picks just need a simple majority in the Senate.
