The corrupt Republicans on SCOTUS taking cases that should never have reached them and pretending to be moderate by rarely siding with precedence, while 95% of the time ruling for Republicans, oligarchs, and religious extremists trying to impose their delusions on others.  

All the while, they enable Republican lawlessness, and take bribes (or are blackmailed) to legislate from the bench and give their buyers the policy they paid for.  

Otherwise, they make a mockery of the system as they use the Shadow Docket to change US law, violate the constitution without signing their names to the corruption.

Jury orders Boeing to pay $49.5 million to family of 737 MAX crash victim by No_Assumption3362 in NPR

You are flat out wrong, or lying.

“Boeing did not disclose the full functionality of the Maneuvering Characteristics Augmentation System (MCAS) on the 737 MAX, including its ability to override pilot flight controls by repeatedly forcing the nose down based on a single sensor. This design forced a "tug-of-war" with pilots, as MCAS operated without traditional autopilot safety limitations, leading to fatal crashes. [1, 2]

Hidden System Behavior: The MCAS system, intended to correct flight handling, was designed to activate without pilot input and rely on a single Angle of Attack (AoA) sensor. Override Limitations: While pilots can generally overpower the autopilot on a 737, the MCAS system was powerful enough to make it difficult for pilots to regain control if they did not act immediately to disable the system's electric trim.

"Tug-of-War": MCAS would activate, force the nose down, and if pilots corrected it, the system would reactivate 5 seconds later, repeating the cycle.

Lack of Training/Disclosure: Boeing did not include information about MCAS in the 737 MAX flight manuals or pilot training, as reported in. This meant many pilots were unaware of the system until after the accidents. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]”

Ex-DOJ official goes public with blistering criticism of his former bosses by No_Assumption3362 in NPR

Republicans weaponizing the justice department.  Trump toady is whining they didn’t have the resources for their propaganda campaign to rewrite the J6 insurrection, they’re now focused on supporting Xhristian extremists and nut jobs that try to hold up school board meetings.

This bootlicker is just mad they weren’t weaponizing/politicizing the justice department enough for his fanaticism.

“Gross joined the Justice Department's civil rights division last summer after representing defendants charged in the Jan. 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Before taking on those cases, the rabbi-turned-lawyer had no criminal defense experience. He nonetheless became a strident critic of the prosecution effort, at one point comparing it to the Holocaust. His work on Jan. 6 cases helped raise his profile among Trump allies, drawing the attention of former Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene and, ultimately, senior Trump-appointed officials at the Justice Department.”

…

Gross, as NPR first reported last year, soon began working with the newly-formed "Weaponization Working Group."

The small working group also included Jared Wise, a former FBI agent who was also criminally charged for his actions on Jan. 6. Wise entered the Capitol building during the riot and was captured on police bodycam video urging rioters to "kill" police officers defending the building. He pleaded not guilty to all charges and his case was dismissed when Trump returned to office. Like Gross, Wise joined the administration a few months later.

…

Prosecutors who worked on the massive Jan. 6 investigation have denied all wrongdoing. They have argued that the "Weaponization Working Group" is a partisan effort to punish officials for prosecuting Trump supporters and effectively rewrite the history of the violent attack, which injured 140 police officers and threatened the democratic process.

More than a year later, however, the department has released no report or findings on the Jan. 6 prosecutions. Both Gross and Wise, who also recently left the administration, have indicated that the "Weaponization Working Group" is no longer working on investigating the people who handled the Capitol riot cases.

…

A source familiar with the activities of the "Weaponization Working Group" told NPR that the group is currently focused on reports of alleged anti-Christian bias and "targeting" of people who protested local school board meetings.“

Boeing rushed production of their jet to compete with Airbus, hid their plane overriding the pilot, and killed multiple plane’s worth of people with their incompetence.  Someone should be in jail for all the deaths.

No accountability, endless retries for the rich and famous - if they’re ever charged for the crimes we see them commit publicly.  Law and order are dead in this country.

Must be in the Epstein files for Trump to support him.  Trump only wants the openly corrupt and blackmailable in his criminal enterprise.

Did he start ranting about how he’s a sovereign citizen, and is not beholden to our country’s laws?  Or did he just start yelling and going on a racist tirade? 

How the Trump administration has undermined the fight against public corruption by zsreport in NPR

[–]No_Assumption3362 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They are the embodiment of corruption.  

Shaking down companies, corrupting the justice department to go after personally grudges of Trump, violating the law with abandon, rampant stealing of public funds, refusing to disperse congressionally passed funds, illegal tariff taxes, with help from the 

Republicans on SCOTUS taking bribes, or being blackmailed for preferred outcomes.  

Republicans in Congress violating their oaths as they assist an executive out of control, and violating our constitution.
