Democrats — especially progressives — have increasingly expressed more anger at the high court in recent years.

“Alito’s next opinion piece in the WSJ is about to be ‘I am a little king, actually. The Constitution doesn’t explicitly say I’m not,’” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) quipped.

    McCarthy can be made to do anything with enough mass mobilization against him.

      The problem is any mass mobilization against him will come from those further Right, not Left.

        Only because none of the Left’s political leadership is willing to actually mobilize the masses!

        Which is what I’ve been calling for this whole thread!

          In the House, the Left is in the minority, the entire Democratic body could mobilize against McCarthy and he wouldn’t give two shits, because as far as he’s concerned, they’re already against him. They’re the minority, he doesn’t have to care.
