    given the current extremely partisan court

    Note that on this particular matter, they ruled unanimously that Trump couldn’t be removed from ballots.

      Very true. The partisanship calls into question everything the court does, but the unanimity is a strong statement. There are reasons for it, but it’s frustrating to watch a crowd of people violently attack the Capital for the express purpose of preventing the lawful transfer of power and then have the courts say damn our eyes, Congress gets to decide.

      It very clearly was the thing we all saw with our own eyes as it happened, but the right side of Congress won’t say so because it’s to their political advantage.

        Agreed, though to be fair, since we all saw it with our own eyes, you would hope we would move to prevent it by voting against him.
