@SrRochardBunson @volkris @morganalafee @kaydenpat 🤔💡 "Chief Justice Roberts’s votes in Wayfair and Janus suggest that the extent to which Congress has the power to fix a precedent he disagrees with is a key factor for him in deciding how much to defer to the Court’s prior decisions."

@SrRochardBunson @volkris @morganalafee @kaydenpat Not to be forgotten:
John Roberts's inglorious role in Citizens United v. FEC.

Legal scholars in Time's article on *the worst SCOTUS decisions since 1960*, expressing their opinions on Citizens United v. Fec:

"Citizens United because it departed from precedent and distorted the political process in ruinous fashion"

"Citizens United v. FEC (2010). Because it is undermining our system of democracy itself."
------------------
Christian Science Monitor on the same SCOTUS decision:
"Thursday was a bad day for democracy. The Supreme Court’s decision in Citizens United v. the Federal Election Commission paves the way for unlimited corporate and union spending in elections, and the drowning out of the average citizen’s voice in our public policy debates. In other words, the court has made a bad situation worse by enhancing the ability of the deepest-pocketed special interests to influence elections and the US Congress."
