#SCOTUS🧵
Dear Chief Justice John G. Roberts, Jr.,

I’m going to set aside the condescension implicit in your suggestion that questioning the legitimacy of your court is due simply to a disagreement over its decisions. 1/15
Regardless of how you choose to rationalize the unpopularity of your court, the plummet in public opinion is not because some Americans don’t like a few rulings. 2/15
In 2010, I was absolutely horrified by the Citizens United decision (and I still think it is one of the worst decisions ever made by #SCOTUS), but at that time, I still respected the #RobertsCourt as an institution. 3/15

Just like polluters, they want to sell their product and then escape any responsibility for foreseeable outcomes.

That’s bad economics as well as bad morals. Good for the court to decide as it did. washingtonpost.com/world/national…
Of course of the seventy-three (yes, 73) 5-4 partisan decisions by the #RobertsCourt giving wins to big #Republican donor interests, many were to help corporations avoid their day in court after wrongdoing.

So, look for firearms industry to get #Republican Justices to bail them out.
