The Gov. Shapiro and DoJ need to act NOW! Crooked billionaire #ElonMusk is funding fraudulent voter registration drives in Pennsylvania. He is a threat to election integrity in #America.
James Clark McReynolds was, in Time magazine’s words, “a savagely sarcastic, incredibly reactionary Puritan anti-Semite.” He refused to speak to Justice Louis Brandeis for Brandeis’s first three years on the Court because Brandeis was Jewish, and he forbade contact between his staff and the Jewish Justices Brandeis and Benjamin Cardozo.
The NYT also called him lazy and a bigot and a petty tyrant.
@GreenFire@HistoPol He is the THIRD Chief Justice to attempt to subvert Democracy. Field, and Chief Justice Melville Fuller. As a delegate to Illinois’s constitutional convention, he voted to prohibit black men and women from settling in the state or voting in its elections. He opposed the Emancipation Proclamation & backed a constitutional amendment preventing congressional interference with slavery. Fuller became an outspoken proponent of anti-government views similar to Field’s
As a sitting justice in 1880, Justice Stephen Johnson Field launched a dark horse bid for the Democratic Party’s presidential nomination. Claiming that “the chilling shadow of the empire” was descending upon the United States, Field fronted an anti-government campaign that would make all but the most strident modern day tea partiers blush
@GreenFire@HistoPol Oh...I don't disagree that he is horribly corrupt, but just that the whole period in the late-1800s and early 1900s were spectacularly corrupt -- even more so. That is the corruption that paved the way for the Progressive era.
@GreenFire@HistoPol Chief Justice Roger Taney authored what is widely viewed as the worst single decision in the Supreme Court’s history, the pro-slavery decision in Dred Scott v. Sandford. It swept far beyond the question presented in that case to offer a philosophic defense of white supremacy and chattel slavery.
