Donald Trump’s greatest legacy is arguably the conservative supermajority he created on the Supreme Court. His second term could put him on a collision course with the institution he reshaped.

washingtonpost.comThe Supreme Court restrained Trump last time. Will it do so again?With Republicans controlling Congress, the Supreme Court could emerge as a strong potential check on President-elect Donald Trump’s boundary-testing agenda.

'greatest'? I wouldn't call a SCOTUS populated by a Xtian nationalist, a former drunken frat boy rapist, and an inept originalist great. The Roberts Court will be seen as the most corrupt, partisan and unethical in History.

It's just another Magat story, trying to lie to the rest of us! Nothing but a den of theives, including the SC, they need to be impeached but that won't happen till after the fall and damage is done! This is the so called news now!

www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc... The unit set up within ICE for ambitious migrant-smuggling efforts dwindled to less than half its 2016 staff under Trump. Smugglers thrived under his immigration policy, which took money and focus from probes of criminal syndicates and money laundering venues.

theatlantic.comHuman Smugglers Are Thriving Under TrumpThe president’s “zero tolerance” policy drains manpower and money from deeper probes that target criminal syndicates.

Women are nothing but vessels to Magats.......grab em by the pussy, rape em, assault em, force em to have babies, especially white ones, shit they don't care and neither does this SC! Smuggling women in for prostitution benefits the Magat men, then they don't have to fuck their ugly stupid wives!

www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202... Jane Doe reported being raped @ Oct. 7, 2017 Monterey event. DA did not bring charges. Hegseth was inebriated. Threatened with litigation 2020, Hegseth paid. JD signed the NDA. (Bruised when she got back to her hotel room/spouse/kids, she felt drugged)

washingtonpost.comDefense pick Hegseth paid accuser but denies sexual assault, attorney saysDocuments obtained by The Post provide extensive detail about an allegation that Pete Hegseth sexually assaulted a woman in 2017.

The court that knew he might become president again while also giving him the authority do murder political enemies as long as it’s vaguely “an official act”. Yea sure they’ll stop him. I can’t believe anybody gets paid to write this shit.

"conservative"? You keep using that word...but they aren't. He has a friendly super-majority happy to chuck law, ethics, & precedent for him in the most egregious fashion - with insurrectionist spouses to boot.

Yeah, no. SCOTUS doesn't care about the rule of law anymore. Look at SB 8, the bounty laws in Texas, the f'ing immunity ruling that got Trump reelected by delaying his criminal trials. They could make slavery legal again for all that the constitution matters to them. And it doesn't.

Maybe 'reactionary supermajority' would be a more precise classification? P1. They overturned Roe vs. Wade. P2. Roe vs. Wade was a policy that deeply transformed the US society. C1: They overturned a policy that promoted social transformation.

This Supreme Court basically granted him immunity a few short months ago. So, no. I highly doubt they would restrain Trump in any meaningful way. Or any Republican president for that matter. They would, however, constrain a Democrat president.

How exactly did they "restrain" Trump's first admin? Was it when they allowed him to ban Muslims from entering the country? When they embraced the unitary executive theory to allow the President to dismiss the head of the CFPB? When they dismissed the Emoluments Clause lawsuits against him?

The benefits of their decisions has already been happening. We have just begun to scratch the surface with Thomas and Alito, do a search on the internet for more details, been going on for a while, but whose stopping them certainly not the Magats!

Trump’s SCOTUS legacy is undeniable, but could his second term test the very foundation he helped solidify? The dynamics of power between the presidency and the court might redefine the next chapter of American politics. Thoughts?

Look guys, Bluesky doesn’t really eat up bullshit like Twitter used to. You’re gonna have to up your gullible nonsense game. Maybe add some graphs where the axis is swapped or something.

Restrain him? What the complete fuck?? Are you thoroughly out of your batshit motherfucking minds??? They’ve *literally declared* presidents are immune to law!!!!

A collision course? Oh please, the Robert’s court will rubber stamp Trump’s wishes. I really used to wonder how Germans could allow what happened to happen. This is how it begins.

Trump's greatest "legacy" is dividing American citizens until almost half believed his lies, and handed him the Presidency. With enormous assistance from Russia, Billionaires, and media, of course. I just hope that some of your staff can feel a tiny bit of shame for what you've done.

Is this a serious headline, @washingtonpost.com? Because it looks like The NY Times pitchbot or something from the Onion. This kind of dithering against outright fascism is how we got here in the first place. It’s why I canceled my subscription. SHAME ON YOU.

Few Americans know Leonard Leo is a right wing Catholic who has stacked the supreme court w members from the Catholic right Now EVERY SINGLE MEMBER of the Republican supreme court is from the Catholic right Also Kennedy/Scalia Very strict religious test by REPUBLICANS Trump= useful idiot

The is absolute crap. SCOTUS, the GOP, and Trump are all going to continue their work to establish permanent minoritarian rule in this country. It's not much of a surprise that a newspaper owned by mega billionaire Jeff Bezos would put out fluff like this to confuse people. So glad I cancelled.

And ohhh, the perks they will all recieve! Imagine free tuition and boarding for your nephews and nieces at some of the most pretiges private schools or your mother's house paid for! We haven't even covered the trips, plane fares, etc. Then they get to shaft the rest of us for free too!
