Usually I challenge people when they call a court stacked or activist, because it’s just so rarely true: this is as close as you’ll (hopefully) see to a 1-bit high court.

It’s the masterpiece, the magnum opus of the Magnus of parliamentary politics. Nicollo Machiavelli doesn’t have shit on Mitch McConnell at that chess game.

I’m pretty indifferent to which color bumper-sticker late capitalism is sporting when it pushes the newest round of formerly “looking forward to better” working people below the waterline, it’s not a partisan thing.

The other team have plenty who match Mitch on evilness, but zero on skill.
