Any reason to think this opinion has any value? The world is full of complete garbage opinions.
They determined the previous ruling, which was actually so terrible RBG actively spoke against it and told the Dem's they needed to codify RVW, was incorrect. And they were right. There's absolutely no way judges, outside of activist judges, could have ruled RVW implementing term limitations for abortions.
And yet, during their confirmation hearings these judges were asked about RVW and they all disagreed with everything you said, calling it established precedent and settled law that has been set for 50 years. I wish at least one of the conservative judges had not lied about how they feel about precedent and RVW during their confirmation. But of course they had to lie in order to acquire the power to do what Congress is unwilling to do.
Apparently Trump helped himself to some Israeli antiquities
LoL! Sure, when they are held at gun point and told to obey the law they will.
The whole reason we're in this problem in the first place is that the legislative branch has basically ceded its power. People in Congress don't want to be responsible for changing laws so they just have the Supreme Court do it for them. There was no way any kind of anti-abortion legislation was ever going to make it through Congress, so they just legislated from the bench and had the Supreme Court take away women's rights.
And yet, he's going to be the GOP presidential candidate for 2024. And if the dumbass "no labels" idiots split the vote, as they are planning to, then Trump will be president again. At that point he is above the law and all these investigations get neutered. He'll probably have his prosecutors arrested.
But more dark money is pouring into federal elections with less disclosure, and 501(c)(4) nonprofits that don’t disclose their donors reported less than $25 million in spending to the FEC during the entire 2022 election cycle — the lowest total since the **Supreme Court’s 2010 Citizens United decision **rolled back restrictions on corporate political speech. Months later, the Supreme Court’s SpeechNow.org v. FEC ruling —which effectively paved the way for super PACs — ushered in a new era of massive donations and groups spending unlimited sums on independent expenditures.
I can't help but notice that the Supreme Court is really leading the way with "bribes are cool" decisions here. It's almost like they are a corrupt group of people getting lavish gifts.
Probably sold it.
To be fair, there are a number of reasons that young people are now energized against the Republican Party. Young people get shot, Republicans rally to protect the guns. Hell, a little while ago they held an event to protect gas stoves. Republicans don't give a damn about kids being shot. And when those kids get old enough to vote Republicans come out and try to prevent them from voting with voter restriction measures. Young people go to school, Republicans make sure they pay through the nose for it while forgiving debt for all kinds of other things.
Young people are the demographic that Republicans want to make pay for everything while they get rid of taxes on old wealthy people. Fuck the GOP.
I'd be even more worried about it if he gets reelected. He'll stop all military aid to Ukraine and Putin knows he can intimidate Trump. Two wackos with nukes is a bad recipe. Can't believe we allow that con man to become Commander In Chief.
Yeah, best to do these things on a Friday.
We should consider making a TV show about this. It would be like The Sopranos only in this case the mafia is running a country. Lots of shitty stupid back deals and betrayals and people being thrown out windows, that sort of thing.
Because to a Trump appointed judge, covid misinformation is just free speech. Can you imagine if the White House tried to tell people that ivermectin didn't work for the virus? That would be directly contradicting the last president.

Some people really like him,” a New York Republican official said. “‘He’s Trump-ish without the baggage,’ is the general feel.”
You know, all the fascism, less treason.
The Republican party remain committed to the career criminal who used the office of the presidency for profitable crime.
