Two points. I completely disagree that the Reps are now stacking the courts is because they are meaner, nastier than the Dems. You are simply asserting it; not arguing it. So I'll leave it as is.

As for a corrupt SCOTUS, it helps to be a great deal more specific. Some of the judges on both sides of the aisle are there for completely defensible reasons. And I haven't seen arguments about their corruption. I completely disagree with many, many of their decisions. But that's a very long way from their being corrupt.

As for corruption itself, I can see serious arguments about two of them. But that's not a "corrupt" court.

And there is a separate argument about how the court moved to a strong 5 to 4 conservative majority. Some of that process was disgusting. But that's on McConnell.
