How the Supreme Court is using Trump to grab more power for itself

[Middle-Eas]

I'm getting really worried about the Supreme Court's latest move . They're trying to justify granting the president total control over agencies, which is basically letting them do whatever they want without checks and balances . It sounds like a power grab straight out of a movie script . And if this happens, it'll be a disaster for democracy. The Court should be protecting our Constitution, not just serving the interests of the current president . What's next? Are we gonna see them playing judge and jury too? This is why we need to keep an eye on their decisions and make sure they're truly impartial

I don’t usually comment but... think this latest move by the Supreme Court is super worrying . I mean, the idea that they can essentially veto a future president's decisions just because they deem it "consequential" is wild. It feels like they're trying to give themselves way too much power and control. Like, what's next? Would they be able to dissolve Congress or something?!

And let's not forget about the whole unitary executive theory thing... it sounds like a recipe for disaster . I don't think it's meant to limit future Democratic presidents' powers at all, but rather to give this Court even more leverage over whoever is in office. It's basically a power play and it makes me super uncomfortable .

I'm not sure what the ultimate goal is here, but I do know that if this kind of thing happens it'll be a major blow to American democracy . The Supreme Court should be impartial, not a tool for one president to use against another. Fingers crossed they come back down from their ledge

THE SUPREME COURT IS GETTING TOO BIG FOR ITS BOOTS !!! THEY'RE PLAYING A GAME OF POWER AND CONTROL, AND IT'S NOT EVEN CLOSE TO BEING FAIR. IF THIS STUFF GOES THROUGH, FUTURE PRESIDENTS WILL HAVE ZERO CHECKS ON THEIR POWER AND THE WHOLE SYSTEM WILL COLLAPSE . WE NEED INDEPENDENT JUDGES WHO ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT THE RULE OF LAW, NOT JUST SOME REPUBLICAN MAJORITY TRYING TO PACK THE COURT WITH LIKE-MINDED FOLKS . IT'S TIME FOR A CHANGE AND THIS SUPREME COURT IS NOT THE ANSWER .

I don’t usually comment but... I'm really worried about this whole thing . The Supreme Court's been acting like they're trying to set themselves up for some kind of future showdown with whoever's in office, and that's super concerning to me . I mean, the idea of them just sidestepping tough questions or letting the president veto decisions is like, totally not what I want to see from an impartial court .

And it's not like this is going to stop at just one case – if they start setting these precedents, they could set off a whole chain reaction that would be super hard to reverse . It feels like they're trying to create some kind of power imbalance in the system, and that's just scary to me .

I know the article mentions it's not necessarily about limiting future Democratic presidents, but I think we should be worried about the precedent they're setting regardless . The Supreme Court is supposed to be above politics, not playing games like this with power and influence .

This Supreme Court is getting way too big for its britches ... I mean, seriously, who needs to rewrite their own rules? That's not how it's supposed to work in a country founded on checks and balances . They're basically saying "we're the ones who decide what's best" – no thanks, Supreme Court!

And don't even get me started on this major questions doctrine thingy... sounds like they're trying to pull a fast one on us . Vetoing presidential decisions just because they deem them consequential? That's not how it works, guys .

I swear, sometimes I think the Supreme Court forgets that they're supposed to be serving the people, not themselves . What's next? Using their power to shape public opinion or block legislation they don't like? No thanks – let's keep our government in check!

this whole thing is a big overreaction , i mean think about it, the supreme court is just doing their job, they're not trying to be all powerful or anything. they're actually helping to shape the future of american politics by setting boundaries and limits on presidential power. this unitary executive theory is just one way for them to do that.

and let's be real, joe biden's administration has been a bit of a mess , so it's not like this court is being unfairly partisan or anything. they're just trying to establish some consistency and precedent in their rulings.

as for all the drama about the major questions doctrine and veto power, that's just a normal part of how the supreme court operates . they're not trying to be malicious or partisan, they're just trying to do what's best for the country.

and honestly, if the democratic party can't handle a little pushback from the other side, that's not the court's problem . they're just trying to uphold the constitution and set some boundaries on executive power. it's all good
