The Supreme Court Is on a Doomed Crusade – The Atlantic
The Supreme Court has set itself on a collision course with the forces of change in an inexorably diversifying America.
The six Republican-appointed Supreme Court justices have been nominated and confirmed by GOP presidents and senators representing the voters least exposed, and often most hostile, to the demographic and cultural changes remaking 21st-century American life. Now the GOP Court majority is moving at an accelerating pace to impose that coalition s preferences on issues such as abortion, voting rights, and affirmative action.
You say dead hand, I say tradition. All we can do is throw ourselves on the tracks and try to slow the train down. Who knows, it might be enough.
