It (America's Judiciary Branch) won't get back up anytime soon because the country is severely divided, and Trump was able to seat many MAGA federal judges the four years he was in office--over 200 of them. Just think, rural voters receive majority SNAP benefits and the Republicans cut more $30B from the SNAP budget from a recent house bill, which Biden agreed to sign in order to get most of his proposed legislature through. These people vote against their own interest, all because of hate for others and being low-formation voters. There is absolutely no reason to suffer because you hate people who don't look like you. The American farmers will suffer too because their support comes from SNAP; and, yes, they too vote against their own best interest in favor of Republicans. Democrats have never been against supporting farmers as the government generously augments their financial stability through nonrepayable grants. There work and mission is very important to America as they provided food for its citizenry. How sad--Alas!

Just have Jamaal Bowman pull the fire alarm when Alito wants to speak.

[@tracychelton5481]

Why is this just surfacing now??? It happened in 2021.

[@JanBirkeland]

Because a neighbor just recently sent a photo to New York Times. The Supreme Court knew about this and never reported it.

[@waterGodh2o]

Representative Jefferis is HIGH ON SOMETHING looks like a zombie

[@ErnestTeeBass]

Biden and the Kenyan president held a press conference yesterday. Luckily there was a translator. To tell us what Biden said.

[@kelperdude]

It was so embarrassing to watch.

[@DALDO135]

JEFFRIES HAS NO ETHICS, RACISM, RACISM, RACISM...GO AWAY... FJB...

[@davep5095]

How about that Bronx rally last night 👍🏼🇺🇸👍🏼

[@TamponTimWalz]

AOC was dancing up a storm

[@TheBibleSkeptic]

What about it?

[@ErnestTeeBass]

​@@TheBibleSkepticwatch Biden and the Kenyan president's press conference yesterday if you want a laugh (hint: The Kenyan president said nothing)

[@kelperdude]

*massive rally.

[@davep5095]

@i-io5uj that is the point of the comment no one cares🤣

[@MyHalcyonDaysAreHere]

SC Justice Cashew Thomas is NUTS !

[@TrumpAMania]

SCOTUS is just fine and well. Just because it doesn't go your way doesn't mean you have to cry. 😂🤣🤣

[@swimminginthoughts]

Reeeeeeeeeee!

[@Emmanuel7lion]

You like corruption and hypocrisy huh?

[@JD-qx3lb]

@@Emmanuel7lionthere in a cult and don’t even have the slightest idea of what they are doing. They’re so confused from the propaganda they are listening to that they are just mindless puppets of right wing ideology.

[@JamesHerron-j1t]

Oh, you should probably be sued for calling him a insurrectionist that’s slander you’re not allowed to do that Siri nor any American in 200 years has been charged with insurrection can like treason. It’s a defined in the constitution.

[@PaulDivito-un1xf]

Watching Biden stammer and stutter his way through that press conference yesterday was very disconcerting.

[@WeAreGoingBackTo1776]

He is such a loser

[@kelperdude]

I could hear the laughter coming from germany.

[@PaulDivito-un1xf]

​@@kelperdudeI actually feel sorry for the man he just shouldn't be up there.

[@philipmullins5185]

Did you see Trump yesterday ? he couldn't speak properly

[@Unsinkable_MollyBrown]

I'm so tired of hearing about Senate paralysis because of the 60 vote threshhold. This is absurd. No other democracy has such nonsense in their legislature.

[@michaeldpa1333]

The Republicans and the RED STATE Senators will never vote against the "Filibuster" rule.

[@TamponTimWalz]

Fun fact, Hakeem will never be speaker 😂😂

[@kelperdude]

He can be the one to clean up after the blue senators workers are done getting it on in the senate chambers.

[@Castaway.....]

Wait until November.

[@petertaylor4954]

Impeach Alito and Thomas FFS.

[@rickimhotep1236]

THIS is exactly why they should have expanded the supreme court a few years ago when they were discussing it, but Manchin said he of course wouldn't go along with it. UNBELIEVABLE!

[@KAMMD]

💙Dems need super majorities in both the House and the Senate !Vote Blue November 5💙

[@kevinoffuttisagirl259]

Don’t ya know Thomas is relieved Alito has the spotlight now

just charge the judges for giving aid or comfort 18 U.S. Code § 2383 - Rebellion or insurrection Whoever incites, sets on foot, assists, or engages in any rebellion or insurrection against the authority of the United States or the laws thereof, or gives aid or comfort thereto, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

[@ClarityDetermination]

Senator Sheldon Whitehouse has been investigating and reporting on scotus for ten years. Where are actual investigative journalists in media? I mean it you people are worth billions and you do not employ investigative or true journalists?

[@JamesHerron-j1t]

So the other five judges should never hear a abortion case because they all donate money to planned parenthood, and other abortion advocates. Is that how you wanna play this game? The judges are no longer allowed a political view or their wives or family because if that’s the case, then so be it, you just won’t like the results

[@mateomelendez3733]

Recusal is not enough, Justice Alito ought to be removed from SCOTUS!

[@hughmoore2768]

This man invented "High Tech Lynching" now he is "Low Tech Grifter"

[@Doug-mu2ev]

Sorry Rep. Jeffries “a real discussion” is not a firm course of action and if this is all we can expect from you and Congress then why should we care?

[@NIGHTSTAR-dr1zq]

First among the duties of the citizen under our Constitution is allegiance. As Chief Justice Marshall pointed out in United States v. Wiltberger,' treason is a breach of allegiance and can be committed only by one who owes allegiance, either perpetual or temporary.

[@brandon3525]

the narrative approves of this BS propaganda 💙

[@styro7769]

SCOTUS is not the law , they are supposed to uphold the law. They need to be held accountable.

[@MarikoSharpe]

THURGOOD MARSHAL TRIED TO WARN US. Thurgood marshal refused to endorse Thomas. During an interview regarding Thomas, he said his father told him "a snake, black or white is a snake".
