Holy shit, I just realized that tweet wasn't even about this ruling, this just made him double down again today. Even when I was a lib I've always disliked Olbermann but if even HE has been pushed to this point that says something. I'm not optimistic enough to think it will lead to anywhere without mass illegal organizing and action people aren't quite ready for yet...but if "Abolish the Court" becomes a mainstream talking point that's not insignificant.
Even MSNBC lib Keith Olbermann called to dissolve the Supreme Court yesterday.
