Every reporter in the room should have turned around and walked out, shut off the cameras. Refuse to take his abuse! This is narcissistic behavior 101. The only way to stop it is to stop allowing it. Reporters aren't required to tolerate this kind of abuse.

The current SCOTUS majority is a bunch of sophists who like to dismiss evidence in favor of hypotheticals. They are spending enormous political capital trying to empower a guy that tried to overthrow the US government. If any good comes of this, hopefully it will radicalize people about SCOTUS.
The conservative justices have their talking point -- what if Congress turned every department into a multimember commission -- and it is totally absurd considering that has never happened under the existing law.
