John, Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor’s dissent encapsulated so much of what we’ve long feared about the partisan tilt of the Supreme Court — and its enabling of Trump’s authoritarian impulses:

“Order the Navy’s Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune.

Organize a military coup to hold onto power? Immune.

Take a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune.

Immune, immune, immune.

With fear for our democracy, I dissent.”

Trump’s MAGA senators helped him ram through THREE Supreme Court nominees that they confirmed to the Court — all of whom joined the 6-3 majority in granting Trump immunity.

It’s clear how important the Senate majority is to defending against the worst impulses of an authoritarian president — and to providing a final backstop that could prevent our democracy from being torn into oblivion.

That’s why Adam’s Senate race and defense of the Senate majority is so important. Please chip in $5 to help him defeat Trump and keep the Senate blue.

Supreme Court justices are not often so blunt — but our democracy is extremely fragile, and the concern of the dissenting justices is warranted.

That’s why your support for Adam’s fight to protect our democracy is so important. Thank you.
