No dessert for you.

Morton’s, one of the more well-known purveyors of overpriced steaks in the country, may not be a venue often patronized by the dirty masses but really, that’s part of its cachet. As one of its favored patrons, you can order a prime Porterhouse with token trimmings (i.e., a parsley sprig) and no sides for a mere $79.00 while sipping an exponentially expensive seasonal Mourvedre and end up spending more than your average “essential worker” earns in a week, especially if you have something to celebrate like forcing poor women to travel hundreds or even thousands of miles to terminate their unwanted two-week pregnancies as a result of your brilliant legal decisions.

For dessert you may be contemplating the white chocolate pecan bread pudding or perhaps, as some purists will recommend, simply the New York style cheesecake. An aperitif, perhaps a small glass of Sambuca adorned with an (always) odd number of coffee beans provides the perfect complement to a pleasant evening.

It is most unfortunate, then, when such a royal repast is tainted with the rude interruption by the hoi-polloi. But if you’re part of the Koch-funded malevolent majority currently occupying the Supreme Court of the United States, hell-bent on eviscerating the rights of half the population, best to sigh and concede to the inevitable.
