Justice Samuel Alito has slammed the Supreme Court for acting “literally in the middle of the night”
Which is an appropriate response when the Trump administration also illegally deports immigrants in the middle of the night.
Yeah, the court rushed their decision specifically because they expected Alito to drag his feet and stall as long as possible. Alito was going to stall through the Easter weekend, which would give the jackboots time to rush the deportations. And the court has learned that Trump is using the deportations as a way to circumvent the law; If the deportees out of the ICE’s hands, then ICE can just shrug and go “talk to Venezuela about it” when ordered to give the deportees due process. So the SCOTUS 100% expected a massive surge of deportations over the weekend while Alito was stalling with writing his dissent.
In emergency orders, the justices don’t even need to say which way they voted. But Alito did anyways, specifically because he expected them to wait for his dissent before they announced the ruling. The fact that they didn’t wait (and Alito had to hurriedly shove the first draft of his dissent in) means that all seven justices who pushed it through were tired of putting up with his shit. To be clear, the rush was a giant “fuck you. We see what you’re doing; you’re not slick” to Alito specifically.
What kind of Supreme Court justice doesn’t believe in due process?
Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, for damn sure
Clarence Thomas would rather show porn to his colleagues and joke about people putting pubes on his Coke can. Anyone who has a problem with that is a woke leftist.
The one they pay not to.
He didn’t at all slam anything. He came up with a weak defense that had nothing. He had 24 hours to do it, and he knows how to do a defense. This was show, nothing more
Alito doesn’t write defenses or arguments. He writes justifications for the outcomes that his neo-pharisee dominionist buddies would most prefer.
*his clerks know how to do a defense.
I hope he chokes on a hamburger and dies. These people didn’t do jackshit to be treated like this, and he just wants to capitulate to fucking fascists. Fuck this guy.
It’s not capitulation if you are one.
“Justice” Alito can fuck off and die. Slowly, painfully.
I’d rather is was quickly and painfully. But not too quickly. I’d hate for Trump to just replace him with another sycophant.
He’d let the Federalist Society pick whoever is the most willing to serve the Christian right cabal.
Old nazi is angry the law is obeyed and respected over his desire to punish non-white people like they should be.
Translation:
Noooo! We’re supposed to be doing fascism and enabling a Trump dictatorship. We have the majority guys! Why???
slam
Slam is really having a moment in news headlines
It drives me nuts so I’ve been commenting slam on every post I happen to come across, its like 4-5 per day. I’m trying to spread awareness of slam fatigue. On the bright side I saw the word “blasts” used today which I don’t actually mind! its a bit more interesting. Theres just something about the word slam and how often its used that grinds my gears I can’t explain it! I wish they’d be more creative like “throws a haymaker!” or “RKO’d” or “falcon punches”.
Slam? Should have gone for the single leg. Amateure!
I’m ready for one of our reps to drop The DDT in the main House chamber. Slams are so Bruno Sammartino.
Why would anyone need due process? Might as well shut down judicial system and just start hanging folks or put them up on the wall handmaid style.
fuckin collaborator, trying to rot the judiciary branch from the inside out
May Alito’s skin begin spontaneously peeling away from his flesh.
So, putting that fascist shitbag justice’s dissent in context: this is the rest of the story
As one Lord Kelvin once said: K.
