It makes me wonder how much Roberts got paid by Billionaire Trump and his Billionaire friends and associates.

Thank you, Lisa. I have had to confront the virulent white supremacy that was taught to me. It's still rife in way too many places.

I'm not giving up the conversations and efforts to bring light into this cruelty and darkness. I appreciate all you're doing. I've learned a lot

This was excellent, Lisa. I always look forward to your interpretations of the current legal hellscape, courtesy of SCOTUS. Almost three hours today of the right wing justices' sophistry and verbally writing their sides' arguments for them was a little more than I could take. I think I require a shower.

I'm poor and can't afford your book, but have it on reserve at our library. I hope they purchased many copies!

I wonder if Roberts' approves of his "side" inciting violence now with almost every Trump/maga utterance? They want that martial law sooo bad.

And for some reason they don't care if a majority of the US citizens and the world can see what they are doing.

It is within in our power to take away the right’s single most powerful weapon by encouraging & helping White people to directly confront the racism that’s built into every law, institution, and custom in this country and unlearn their own racial bias. But too many pols and pundits in the center & on the left think that’s too divisive. So our great-great-great grandkids will still be fighting these same battles.

Why do the 6 Right-wing extremist judges want Trump to be president so badly? Don't they realize he could get rid of them, eventually, when he no longer needs them?

Thank you, Lisa. A good friend, Eric Angel just last night referenced your book, with which I was not previously familiar. Based on Eric’s summary, I think your book may be one of the most insightful documentaries of our time and I very much look forward to receiving my copy and digging in. I am hoping this will be the missing piece of the puzzle for me that helps me connect the dots between America’s progress over the last century with regard to the responsibilities of government and the rights of citizens. I am hoping your work provides me with the evidence I need to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that John Roberts should be impeached.

I have never listened to oral arguments, ever! But I DID today. If I heard what you heard, and you heard what I heard, they're sharpening their knives for section 2.
