From 1960s rhetoric: Burn it down, burn it down to the ground. Malice and bad faith are the order of the day.
Gay rights are next, starting with the right to gay marriage.
I'm getting my passport renewed and if Trump wins this year, I am gone.

All we have to do is vote. Younger votes need to wise up.

Gay marriage was codified by Congress. It’s going nowhere.

What can be codified can be repealed.

Expand the court, enact term limits AND have an agency for oversight for any unethical behavior.
They set up the Supreme Court as these untouchable, infallible and ethical beings that don't need oversight. Republicans have proven this to be false and used it to their advantage.
That's it - NO MORE of this God-like Supreme Court. Expand, rotate them in and out, and oversee their behavior. It's RIDICULOUS this hasn't been raised before.

EEK we should pass a constitutional amendment the prohibits any states that went for Trump from ever voting again. We need a new form of reconstruction.

No. All nine of them aren't building support for the coming Trump autocracy. Just the conservatives:
Samuel Alito
Clarence Thomas
Neil Gorsuch
Brett Kavanaugh
John Roberts
Amy Coney Barrett

If they decide for Trump and grant the President immunity, what's keeping Biden from assassinating Trump and all conservative Justices?

See, that's the thing, R21. If it were a Democrat president under indictment, say Clinton, Obama, or even Biden, they would never advance the arguments they are making for Trump.

The idea of having Biden walk into the Supreme Court, point a loaded gun at each conservative justice's head, and daring them to decide for Trump is funny though.

R20, Coney Barrett demurred from the others with a couple of remarks she made today. You will need to wait for the findings to see if you want to include her. (I watched the Rachel Maddow special that went for hours and looked at every detail.)
It is, R24, but it would be even funnier if Obama could do it.

The Biden administration should prepare and distribute a paper laying out what, in the opinion of its legal staff, Biden's new rights will be should the SC decide for Trump here, and to what extent he will, however reluctantly, act on them. That should help chill the wingnuts.

So what they’re deciding for Dump means Biden can also stage a coup? It works both ways, right?

I'm sorry, OP -- I couldn't even make it halfway through the article. It's just too fucking depressing.
I did make a tentative plan to leave the country, though -- and don't tell me I won't do it, because I did it the last time, in 2020. I voted early, and left the next day for a three-week stay at a condo in Mexico. I figured by then, if Biden was elected, it would be all over but the shouting. Sadly, I was wrong.
As I've been saying for a number of years. keep your passport handy.
