You still have ice out masked in force, still have camps, still have tarriffed the world, still have open bribery, and still have chilling lawsuits against media. All of which was ruled not cool by judges at some point, and either just done anyway or overruled at the supreme court.
I agree. Shit is tenuous at best. I just don't buy into all the defeatism I'm seeing around here. Bunch of people are just doing the fascist jobs for them with this shit. Use the courts even if they are shitty right now, it's another tool.
I don't think its defeatism, most of it is from people outside of the us pulling our hair out watching the usa pull the world into a dark pit while us citizens talk about "when things are normal again", "when the checks and balances kick in" and in this case "The courts will fix it".
