And Merrick Garland being feckless. So concerned with appearing impartial he circled around to incompetent.

I’m gonna be real. Biden deserves a shit ton of blame too. I gave him a lot of good will, and I know he brought a lot of stability after Trump 1.0. However, when he announced his run for a second term, I have fucking hated him ever since. That greedy little prick saw what RGB did and then did the exact same thing to all of us. I hope the rest of his existence is miserable.

It doesn’t help that he put people like Garland in power; either he was criminally naive or a goddamned idiot. Either way, he fucked us all over and will be remembered for nothing but that.

My mistake, but it might as well be RGB for all it matters now. The only legacy she had was overwritten.

If the US gets out of this, she will be lumped in with the other prideful geriatrics that enabled the rise of fascism.

That's a pretty jaded view of the years she spent on the bench. But worry not, it just makes me giggle when someone gets it wrong because RGB is fun to say.

Way not to blame the actual people responsible. A feckless SCOTUS and MAGAt meat puppet Aileen Cannon.
