It's not the most important part of the issue but Kavanaugh saying "well they should just sue if they're the victims of excessive force from ICE" when he himself has previously voted to bar lawsuits against federal officers for violations of the 4th Amendment in immigration cases takes chutzpah.

SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in a college applicant's file is blatantly unconstitutional ALSO SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in targeting whom to detain and deport is cool cool cool

More judges speak to the press (the NYT) about what a disaster the Supreme Court (specifically the shadow docket) has been - “incredibly demoralizing & troubling”; a “judicial crisis”; a “slap in the face to district courts.”...

Federal Judges talking to the press about how bad the SCOTUS is was not on my bingo card...

Srsly. They are basically saying "this is a rogue ideological hack Court, and we will need to fumigate it when we get a sane person back in power."

We need 50 districts and a 49-member Court with fixed terms. Fuck this 18th century landowner shit.

Historians are going to talk about this Court like they talk about Dred Scott.

Also, states have to have the same relative size to not violate one man one vote. States either need to combine or divide. Personally I'd like to admit PR and DC and divide the states out to 100 of equal pop.
