‘Wrong and Frightening’: Alito Claims Congress Can’t Regulate SCOTUS — “What a surprise, guy who is supposed to enforce checks and balances thinks checks shouldn’t apply to him,” said Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez.

@BlueDouche he filters the header or something? Bizarre. The level of confusion he's demonstrating is epic. Total lack of any self awareness. Literally, and I'm using that word in the literal sense, he is supposed to provide the #checksandbalances to the administrative state. The irony is thick enough to cut with a knife.
#GOP: How dare you accuse us of #authoratian policies?!
Rest of the Country: Because you keep trying to remove #ChecksAndBalances on the #ExecutiveBranch?
GOP: Bosh! Fearmongering! Vile calumny! We worship small government and freedom!
#HeritageFoundation: Oh, hey, GOP, here are our promised recommendations on how to get rid of checks and balances on the Executive Branch when you take the White House again.
GOP: ...
GOP: Cool.

Hey Law & Society, saw that video:

on how to regulate #LLM like #ChatGPT etc.
To me, the idea of #TrustedFlaggers seems really interesting as it includes #watchdogs and #CivilSociety into the #Commission |s formal system of #ChecksAndBalances
Is this as extraordinary as it seems to me?

Arbeite immer noch die #republica23 ab. In diesem Video diskutieren @spielkamp | @SandraWachter und @philipphacker über Regulierungsideen zu #chatgpt etc.
Die Figur der #TrustedFlaggers schien mir auch soziologisch besonders interessant. Hier wird #CivilSociety , hier werden #AufsehendeGewalten oder #watchdogs in die staatlichen #ChecksAndBalances integriert.
Ist das - den Entwurfsstatus außen vor - so spektakulär, wie es mir scheint?

Norfolk’s buses stopped running after $1 million went missing. The main suspect is still on the run.
North Fork Area Transit’s swift end left 60 employees without a job. And it left hundreds of residents without reliable transportation.

So glad to know there's still a somewhat sane portion of #SCOTUS that cares something for democratic principles and #ChecksAndBalances
The ruling on the "independent legislature" principle isn't an unmixed blessing. But it does establish that state supreme courts (and federal courts) can rein in the worst of #StateLegislature attempts to create a one-party, one-race state electorate.

“You can't actually have checks and balances if one branch is so powerful that the other branches cannot, in fact, engage in their constitutionally mandated role to provide a check on inappropriate or illegal behavior,” Caroline Fredrickson, a distinguished visitor from practice at Georgetown Law, said in a phone interview. “Then we have a defective system.”

@pivoinebleue Netanyahu's & Trump's (then-"presidential") goals are essentially the same: To abuse governmental power to evade justice, prosecution & indictment for being the crooks they are, utterly disregarding right & wrong.
To achieve this, they're even willing to sacrifice/corrupt the #SeparationOfPowers & the system of #ChecksAndBalances.
Both (& their respective stooges) are criminal embodiments of a deeply insane & unhealthy understanding of functioning democratic states, both are most unfit to hold public offices.
