"Billionaires and the industries they run have a well-monied thumb on the scales of justice, an oligarchic influence operation that, among other tactics, funds a flood of amici to push the justices toward a preferred outcome." We let wealth inequality grow too large and now we're all paying for it.

A Colorado classic today, old Fall River road in Rocky Mountain National Park between when they shut it off to cars and when snow closes the road. Couldn’t have been more pretty.
