Literally, officially, it’s now entirely legal under federal law for officials to accept and even solicit bribes for specific services rendered, just so long as they do it after, rather than before, the service is rendered.
They aren’t even pretending to be a legitimate court of law any more - they’re just a rubber-stamping service for the oligarchy.
Historically that’s not true. We have had disastrous governments and Supreme Courts in the past, and yet the country somehow survived. It’s just that they do so much damage while they’re around.
And just because things held together in the past is no guarantee that they will hold together in the future.
Rather than saying that the system has failed us, I think it’s more accurate to say that the system has been failing the vast majority of Americans for many years.
There’s also nothing stopping them from taking a bribe for something they’ve already done if they do something else. “Hey, I’ll pay you for the books you banned if you make hrt illegal”

It’s long past time to flush these turds
Yeah, they are actually just seeing how far they can go by now. This is a direct “Fuck you” right in our faces.
There is no process or procedure that can undo these people. The system has failed us.

Well there is, but it’s illegal and these bastards sure ain’t gonna endanger their own lives.

Other way around. They can accept the bribe, but only after they have given whatever political favor they sold.
