This has literally always been true.

The six (should be sick) Supreme Court judges are criminals beyond any reasonable doubt. Let's see how many of these scunbags croak before the convicted felon Trump. Bad karma will bite their ass so hard that they will be in pain for a long time.

“[K.B. Jackson] is urging people to be skeptical of the story the Court loves to tell about itself: that the task of interpreting the law is not “political.” This has always been wrong. But no justice has come quite so close to saying it.” 🧨, Jay. Look forward to more from you.

Another banger - “… she can at least use her platform to show the public that the institution is captured, broken, and not to be taken seriously.”

🙏

Doesn't it figure she was appointed at the same time as the most racist justice of our time. GUESS WHICH ONE?

Corruption for future actions having an issue record to guide.

Left her fucks at the gate.

It's better than that: her job is to speak to other lawyers, not just the public. They all serve the law, which doesn't have kings either. So when the system is under strain, she is flagging the weak points, correctly so. In their world law will prevail over tainted interpreters.

I hope these function as a paper trail, should this administration be tried in international court. Maybe it's a pipedream, but I still hope for justice.

Those who claim that the Roberts Court is only interpreting the Constitution in a nonpolitical manner have mush for brains. It's hard for me to look at Roberts and not see a pearl-clutching fascist.

I found this super-weird (NYT): "She’s breaking the fourth wall, speaking beyond the court,” said Melissa Murray, a law professor" The "fourth wall" is between the show and the audience, but the American people are not supposed to be watching SCOTUS perform. We're supposed to be participants!

In the future, Jackson's dissents will be MORE IMPORTANT than the ruling a breath of Sanity a message to the future that Sane people did live in these dark times...

The First Justice Harlan, that is. LOL. His stupid grandson was less luminary.

And the fact that Sotomayor and Kagan are not joining her means they themselves are too close to the problem.

Thomas used dissents for years to telegraph his radical agenda. When the time was right with an installed radical majority, movement litigants would instigate cases testing previously off limits topics, ie, Abortion, Chevron or Heller knowing they'd get a sympathetic vote if cases were revisited.

You're a tough crowd, Jay! I'm glad Whitney stuck around for the ride. Meanwhile, I'm curious: what's the most creative way to drown a government in a bathtub? 🤔

RBG did the same even on abortion rights and dems ignored her and look what we got

Dang this Black Woman is smart!

KBJ FOR CHIEF!!! **ASAP**

You can tell it's working because the right-wing outrage machine hates her.

✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻👏🏻👍🏻

👏👏👏👏

She can just get a blog to do that. The libs need to get off the bench and stop legitimizing this farce.

Some dissents have mattered a lot through history.

Exactly…it’s important we pay attention to her dissents! She’s speaking to us, warning us! ✊🏻🌹

This raccoon is Mad-As-Hell and he's not going to take it anymore!! SCOTUS has been thoroughly corrupted.

"If she cannot persuade her colleagues that the Constitution does not imbue Donald Trump with an inviolate right to ignore it, she can at least use her platform to show the public that the institution is captured, broken, and not to be taken seriously."

She's the only one who's not a shill

Scalia’s decades of minority jeremiads became the road map for Roberts’ goon squad in wrecking 75 years of SCOTUS jurisprudence. Unless Jackson is laying the groundwork for any future courts to toss all this hackery straight into the trash, it’s all just hot air

I am grateful for her.

I love a good dissent. Typically, over the last 20+ years I’ve only read decisions related to education, and RBG was my favorite at a good stinging dissent, but KBJ is quickly taking the top spot.

Her dissents will provide the underpinnings of the majority opinions of the future.

Don’t say RULE OF THUMB JAY ARE YOU PLANNING TO DELETE THIS POST AND REDO IT OR DO YOU NOT CARE ABOUT TERMS THAT DIMINISH ME AND ALL WOMEN? DO BETTER JAY.

Quite sure you’ll hide my reply to you. This does not change WHAT you did. Do better. Good grief! PATRIARCHY MUCH? RULE OF THUMB JAY DO NOT SAY IT AGAIN YOU INSULT WOMEN BY BEING UNINFORMED .

JAY🆘🆘🛑🛑 WHAT THE LITERAL FUCK? ❌PURPORT TO BE INFORMED❌ 🛑YOU🛑 JUST USED THE UNACCEPTABLE TROPE: RULE❗️OF ❗️ THUMB❗️ So, I recommend to you. Look up the meaning of your ANTIQUATED CRUEL RULE OF LAW TERM TO INFORM YOURSELF OF WHICH YOU SPEAK. YOU INSULT ME, ALL WOMEN. Apologize❗️

She has big shoes to fill! Even though ACB took RBG’s spot, Jackson is living her legacy! She is a brilliant constitutionalist and is ruling by the law not necessarily her politics.

The truth is that the method of nomination is flawed and must lead to ideological and political bias. It also makes the justices behoven to the president that appointed them and makes the administive arm and the judicial far too closely related . The law is supposed to be blind, it isn’t.

🎯🎯🎯

This is a pretty comprehensive take on Jackson as well bsky.app/profile/whit...

She is actually using jurisprudence, you know?

She has been a FABULOUS new member of the court.

I think we should stop calling them “conservatives.” They are REPUBLICANS.

I always thought they still matter because you get to go on most official record with your opinion and view of a situation.

Much love to KBJ. Bad-ass.

Thank you Judge Brown Jackson!

Grover Norquist probably did believe that, but the people running the government currently do not, viz the billion-dollar budget for ICE

Justice Jackson is our one hope of salvaging any legitimacy to the Court Joe Biden really did choose the best

She's the one of them who deserves a decent night's sleep.

She is awesome.

This American is extremely proud of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson!

Righteous!💎💎💎💙💙💙

Did we really need this explained to us though? Maybe she might convince a couple independents I guess.

We have President Biden to thank for that appointment.⚖️

📌

Best Justice we’ve ever had.

When some these terrible decisions are overturned in the future, her dissents will be cited.

I mean, maybe even worse. We don't know how bad it will get yet.

I remember early on KBJ using “originalist” arguments in her dissents only for the justices to completely ignore them. I appreciate her calling out the BS. I wish a more judges and politicians would make this central to their public actions. It seems necessary to breaking out of our current cycle.

She’s a real one and trying to do right by the country and constitution

They’ll serve as historical evidence of what’s happening.

📌

Amen

The conservative judges have abdicated their duties to the constitution and the rule of law after getting rid of due process

We cannot allow it to be used to become a partisan mouthpiece for one party's agenda

Speak it!

If we make it out alive, I hope they make her chief justice even though I’m sure that would not be protocol. Her courage is astonishing and she inspire us all

Whoever inherited RBGs dissent necklace should send it to KBJ.

The males were bought and he packed his court

So what can you DO about it? DO something

That's why she makes Amy Covid Barrett so mad.

👌🏼

📌

She is running with the baton from Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

That’s why the Right is going all in on painting her as an idiot who everyone is distancing themselves from despite that being a lie.

correct, i'm not thanking her for nothing

who?

Allowing parties to create partisan courts just invites dictatorship and destruction of the constitution.

Thank you for this article and for this skeet.

Thanks for the clear explanation of this Justice's dissent. I have no legal background and appreciate it.

He was always signaling; write the most batshit dissents so they get laundered through hacky FedSoc law review articles and end up repackaged as arguments some years later and then rubber stamped by Thomas and his newest friends. And he's had the personal joy of being there to watch it happen.

thank you king, I agree I am good and right

She'd doing the work for history, our children's children.

Fucking ouch.

She has my vote for Chief Justice. Not that I get a vote.

That is exactly the meaning my post intended. She is a treasure and is having to operate at a whole different level of vigilance in that difficult environment.

I really appreciate and wish our elected would do the same, sure they would be pilloried by the media, but the media only has one vote per person and some things transcend the media bubble, like when we see people say the plain truth and fight for us.

📌

She is brilliant and I am grateful.

The next court will be hers.

Incredibly important for the historic record. Future humans will want to know that not all of the Justices were morally bankrupt, corrupt and irresponsible judges who destroyed the US Constitution…

She is carrying a lot on her shoulders. We are lucky to have her in this position. It’s unfortunate she is in the minority on the Supreme Court.

Well good for her, but how many members of the "the public" read them? This reminds me of the old rule that any nonprofit that says its primary role is "education the public" is, in fact, wasting your money.

She may be the only person on SCJ willing to do so!

Thank god!

I had the same feeling about the DJT impeachments being important even though the cowardly Republicans were never going to convict, even after they had feared for their lives on Jan 6. The impeachments are important for historical documentation.

I admire Justice Brown Jackson's courage and intelligence. She is a hero.
