And I would suggest impeachment and removal of the 4 dissenting; because this is in direct violation of the Oath of Office they have taken. With televised recordings, and innumerable witnesses - each voluntarily and without reservation SWORE to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, without reservation and of their own free will. It's pretty clear that any ruling contrary to defending the US Constitution is a voilation of their duty - and should have consequences.

Let’s all hope so, but you realize that Kennedy will be subjected to relentless pressure. I only hope that he isn’t a denizen of the DC social/political scene.
