Honest Government Ad: US Supreme Court
by thejuicemedia

The US Supreme Court has made an ad, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative.



0:00
Hello I’m from the US Government
0:02
No, not that
0:03
Or that
0:04
Your actual government: the Supreme Court
0:07
You know, the thing that brought you voter suppression, Citizens United
0:10
and this global terrorist
0:12
SCOTUS!
0:13
Even at the best of times SCOTUS gives zero f***s about democracy
0:17
We answer to nobody
0:18
We overrule laws made by Congress
0:20
Our Justices are appointed for life
0:22
And you don’t even elect us
0:23
To be fair, you barely elect the people who do appoint us
0:26
But here we are
0:28
And now that we finally have enough Federalist Society nutjobs on the bench
0:32
we’ll be using this Court’s unchecked power to wrong some rights
0:35
Like the right for women to have no control over their own bodies
0:38
the right for kids to be indoctrinated at school
0:41
the next mass-shooter’s right to flaunt their murder weapon in public
0:44
and the right for polluters to kill even more of you in heatwaves, floods and fires
0:48
But we’re only just getting started
0:51
In our next term, we’ll decide if Republicans have the right to steal the next presidential election
0:56
That’s right, we’ll be ruling on the theory of Independent State Legislature
1:00
Independent State Legislature is a judicial fart
1:04
cooked-up by these three bandits who helped steal the 2000 election
1:07
in what’s widely regarded as one of our shittiest rulings ever
1:10
The theory proposes that during presidential elections
1:13
State Legislatures have the power to ignore your votes and choose their own electors
1:18
(Which is handy if none of your favorite presidents have won the popular-vote this century)
1:22
And if state courts try to stop this shitfuckery by upholding their constitutions
1:27
the theory says SCOTUS should step in to decide the outcome of the election
1:31
Yep, just like what happened in 2000
1:33
History was almost repeated at the last election, when Il Douche asked us
1:38
to use this very theory to invalidate your mail-in ballots in a bunch of swing states
1:43
Unfortunately, we didn’t quite have the numbers to help him out back then
1:46
But now…
1:48
We do!
1:49
TRUMP ‘24! Brought to you by SCOTUS
1:51
Legal experts say it would be hypocritical of us to embrace a law with no Constitutional basis
1:56
after striking down this law for having no Constitutional basis
2:00
But they overlook a key aspect of our jurisprudence:
2:03
We don’t give a shit
2:05
We’re just here to impose our fucked-up ideology
2:07
LICK OUR SCROTUS
2:08
What’s that, how can you stop us?
2:10
Well, introducing more Justices and term limits would be a start
2:14
But that would require an actual majority in both the House and Senate
2:18
Better vote in those midterms - might be the last free election you get!
2:21
Failing that, you’ll have to find a way to show us you’re not going
2:24
to stand for six un-elected pieces of shit ratfucking your democracy anymore
2:29
You know, general strikes, mass protests - all good things we’ve been working hard to outlaw
2:34
Until then, enjoy the ride as we take you back to 1787
2:39
Or whatever this fratboy imagines that to be
2:41
probably a cross between Handmaid’s Tale and Beerfest
2:44
Whatever
2:45
Fuck you
2:46
SCOTUS!
