Someone explain to me what a Supreme Court Architect is/does. The only things I can find are historic people who literally built the building or helped shaped the Supreme Court. And the only other thing I can find seems to be a glorified grounds keeper.
He put together a secret society (Federalist Society) and billionaire-funded patronage machine which has been arranging for far-right judges to be appointed throughout the US for the past couple decades, ultimately resulting in a Supreme Court which radically favors billionaires over the rest of us.

They assert that Honolulu’s lawsuit and similar actions pose a “grave threat” to “our nation’s
energy infrastructurethieving capitalists.”Fixed that for them.
“States Rights”…/s
This is the best summary I could come up with:
In 2020, Honolulu sued major oil and gas companies, accusing them of knowing for decades that burning fossil fuels would damage the climate, and concealing that information from the public.
Climate change, while not the only factor behind what fueled the devastation, likely contributed to the intensity of the blaze — as rising temperatures, invasive grass species, and winds strengthened by hurricanes transformed the island into a deadly tinderbox.
The court’s decision on whether to take the case could have sweeping implications: Many state and local governments across the country have filed similar challenges with claims including public and private nuisance, failure to warn, and racketeering.
In April, attorneys general in 20 states filed an amicus brief urging the Supreme Court to review the Hawaii decision, arguing that it “endangers the rights of states to adopt their own policies with respect to energy production, environmental protection, and potentially any other activity that ‘exacerbate[s] the impacts of climate change.’” They assert that Honolulu’s lawsuit and similar actions pose a “grave threat” to “our nation’s energy infrastructure.”
Outside of RAGA, Leo’s network is spearheading its own PR campaign calling on the court to review the Honolulu case and use it to set a new precedent quashing state and local climate litigation.
As the Honolulu suit and other climate-related cases pend across the country, fossil fuel company defendants are scrambling to “sideline this litigation and avoid a trial and decision on the merits of the plaintiff governments’ claims,” says Richard Frank, a co-director at UC Davis’ California Environmental Law and Policy Center.

Okay that is what I thought. Just making sure it wasn’t some official title I didn’t know about.

That’s SILLY! The Supreme Court OBVIOUSLY can NOT be Bought! The Justices ONLY make Decisions based on the Constitution and NOT who gives them Money or Yachts or Homes or on Personal Political Beliefs! This ARTICLE is the DEEP STATE!
This man is over 235 years old? Impressive.
