Who knew all you needed to make yourself above the law was appoint your own judges... The level of corruption going on in front of our eyes is astounding, they're barely even trying to hide it at this point.

MODERATORS
They're banking on the assumption that they won't have to once Trump wins the election.
They are banking on the fact that impeaching judges is both extemely rare and very time consuming.
And that a Republican-held house of representatives will never impeach.
Fuck. How do you fight that?
If the birth rate keeps declining, theoretically some day they'll be forced to implement policies that help instead of harm people. You can fight by making sure as many people as possible are aware of this.
They'd probably reinstate slavery before they do that.
You've caused me now to imagine a reality where the stupid thing that orange asshole advocates changes from "they aren't sending their brightest" to "we literally can't trap enough of them here" and I don't like it
Media will be picking up on that “rigged judiciary” at any moment now
Anyone with half a brain knows it's a blatantly corrupt system having little to do with law.
U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon, who was appointed to the bench by Trump
This might be good news: instead of drawing out the case for 10 years, the judge just ruled all special prosecutors are unconstitutional. If the appeals court reverses thus ridiculous rulling, we might see the trial much sooner.
SCOTUS: Isn't there somebody you forgot to ask?

I would love to move to NZ.
