"While the corrupt majority has consistently advanced and enforced an ideological vision of how the country should be run it has another, simpler brief: not allowing Democrats to govern when they are in power. When Republicans are in power, the powers of the presidency are almost limitless; when it’s Democrats, the office is enfeebled and hemmed in by a cobweb of invented doctrines." ~ Josh Marshall #SupremeCourt #Callais #VotingRights #corruption #Republicans /3 https://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/you-can-have-democratic-self-government-or-the-corrupt-court-not-both
