When the Supreme Court is up to shenanigans, what do you do?
🗽The Supreme Court should be independent and above politics
Equal Justice is not possible with a compromised Supreme Court
The Supreme Court is supposed to be independent and above politics, but conservatives have stacked the court with political appointees who act on their beliefs instead of the Constitution.
Americans should be worried about the Supreme Court's involvement in corruption, ethics violations, and the court's political extremism. The court appears to be filled with political extremists who are pushing for things like eliminating the federal right to an abortion, undermining our ability to combat climate change, and endangering free and fair elections.
The Supreme Court has become unhinged. No one is above the law, and the Supreme Court's ruling for former President Donald Trump to remain on the ballot and evade accountability for attempting to silence voters and steal their vote is an affront to the Constitution, the rule of law, and all who call the United States home.
Brushing aside attempts to counteract racial inequality and sanctioning LGTBQIA+ discrimination in our community is also a willful regression in a country founded on the premise of liberty and Justice for all.
Furthermore, the court's decision to not protect student borrowers speaks to the Justice's growing sense of privilege and entitlement as the court has moved from Supreme to Extreme. These decisions mark a shameful erosion of civil rights advances made in the past 50 years. For too long, the Supreme Court has eroded its legitimacy by abusing its power by attacking abortion rights, voting rights, gun safety reform, environmental reform, and other freedoms.
There is no power like that of the people, and People Power United stands ready to protect our communities against any and all injustices. It's time for activists like us to lead the way and champion reforms to the Supreme Court. We must push Congress to expand the Supreme Court to protect our rights and freedoms, create term limits, and institute a code of ethics.
Here are 4 (four) quick-and-easy actions we can take:

That is what it was intended to be when the nation was founded...it is time to get the court back to what it was meant to be, not just a political, religious, money controlled circus.
