I know it's a sacrilege on the left to speak ill of him, but Obama let the Republicans steal his scotus appointment with next to nothing in the way of pushback. If he had showed some spine, maybe it's not a 6-3 conservative scotus now.

Oh, good to know. That’s even better! Obama’s been talking a bit to Congress Democrats and Colbert. I’m sure there are good quotes there too.

SCOTUS gutting voting rights killed any remaining legitimacy that the highest court had. In a post-Trump world, where Americans realise that Republicans always fvck up the economy, human rights & international stability, a tribunal will need to remove justices who voted for Trump’s illegal immunity

The Supreme Court betrayed women too. #Racism and #sexism are conjoined twins that destroyed the young US diet #democracy (1965*-2025; In a true democracy, there is no #gerrymandering and every vote has the same worth). #Boycott the men's #FIFAWorldcup & #OlympicGames! #Resist * #VotingRightsAct

Yes hey did! and this alone should be a wake up call! Especially for those that normally sit it out. and say my voted doesn't count? 179 days we need to unite! Get involved, fight for Democracy, Justice, and Accountability!

I believe this was actually said by Derrick Johnson, of the NAACP, not Obama. Obama said the decision “effectively guts a key pillar of the Voting Rights Act” and warned that it allows legislatures to dilute minority voting power under the guise of partisanship.

I hope Obama is feeling guilty for not fighting to get Garland on the court. If Garlabd was a Justice, he wouldn't have been available to be a feckless AG. Sure, fuck Mitch McConnell, but Obama had the bully pulpit.

100% yes & thank you President Obama for being so present in these truly troubled times - you did your service so well & now we rely on you again & it is at the expense of yourself & family that we do so - but we need you - the voice of sanity

They dishonor the court they sit on, shit in legal precedent & accept lavish gifts from those who have cases before the court. They do not belong therevat all. They belong in prison.

Either a Wannabe Democracy or the burgeoning late stage Autocracy. The World is watching. And reacting accordingly. trumpie has said he wants trumpieland to be Isolated. He may well achieve his ambition within 993 days +/- a few. 🇮🇪🇪🇺

Liberals have to wake up, including President Obama. More correctly, about 40% of Americans betrayed Black voters, America, and Democracy because they never wanted Democracy, they never wanted diversity, and that's the real problem behind all this. We need a different strategy.

They didn’t just betray the United States & the people of the United States they betrayed the entire world by their own incompetence & their actions against humanity. They better get used to the fact that they are the most hated Supreme Court Justices ever in the history of the United States 🇺🇸

And they're coming for women and other marginalized communities next. It's not going to stop with stripping away Black Civil Rights. That's just one reason to stand in solidarity with Black voters.

What, now we have ta go do the Civil Fuckin Rights ALL Over Again....whens these "HUMANZ wearing White Skinz", gonna put an end to WHITE PRIVILEGE??? Wake up every morning now-n-go, yup, WHITE FUCKIN PRIVILEGE still in thet WHITE HOUSE.....

I support the rule of law, which iffin yer NON-White American is getting pretty fuckin sketchy. This sickness goes bone deep. These Corporate C0CKSUCKERZ have so Conditioned this culture. I'll remember thet WHITE America stood up fer affordability and did Not Stand fer up fer HUMAN RIGHTS....
