@JuanWild It is POSSIBLE that a 5-vote majority is beginning to gell on the Supreme Court that can curb the worst abuses of Maga-ism in the coming months, through the end of this session in the early summer. The three usual suspects, Obama and Biden appointees, may be winning over on key points both Justice Barrett and the Chief. Keep hope alive.

@Christofurio it's not so simple as whether a group is getting together to curb abuses. That's not how the Court works.

The Court adjudicates cases before it on a case by case basis, based on the arguments presented to it, and often enough there isn't a clearcut, complete win for either/any perspective speaking before it.

The view of teams against team Maga just isn't a realistic view of how the Court functions.

@volkris @JuanWild It was knowingly somewhat cartoonish, but I believe my remark pointed to the truth as a cartoon can.

@Christofurio the problem is that so many people actually believe it literally works that way.

It's an unfortunate case of people mistaking satire for fact.
