Preparing myself for more setbacks from SCOTUS

[misanthrope]

Sounds like they are going to drop some bombs on the nation tomorrow, including birthright citizenship, LGBTQ storybooks in schools, and a Louisiana Voting Rights Act case. My hopes aren't high.

I also think they are going after Obergefell before long. We know Alito and Thomas want to dismantle it.

1. SCOTUS

Hoping for a pleasant surprise, at least on birthright citizenship and nationwide injunctions.

2. The Trump Supreme Whorehouse doesn't disappoint

3. "My hopes aren't high."

That birthright citizenship is even an ‘issue’ is insanity.

And this activist Court is just getting started.

In addition to Obergefell, look for conservatives to go after Establishment Clause jurisprudence – conjoining church and state, prayer in public schools, and the ‘religious rights’ myth, jeopardizing public accommodations laws.

4. "Supreme" Court?? The only thing "Supreme" about that court

is the members who were appointed by Democratic presidents....
unfortunately now in a 6-3 minority...

And yeah, I am afraid of their upcoming "decisions"....



Well, that same institution once made the decision
that slaves were not people, and African-Americans were not citizens,
and thus had no standing to sue for their rights--
(Dred Scot decision)

On the bright side, that horrible decision was completely annulled
by the history that followed thereafter....


Freedom, Liberty and Morality sometimes suffers setbacks in our country,
but we have always eventually moved forward from those setbacks...

I believe that we will do so yet again!

5. I hope you're right**nm

6. They'll make Leonard Leo proud.

He built it for these times.

7. If it is any consolation

The Economist's Scotusbot has predicted birthright citizenship will stand, 7-2.
You can guess which 2 are against it.

8. I grew up revering the SCOTUS. The Sleazy Six in this bunch just disgust me past endurance...

Eh Why go on? We all know what they are by now.

9. I felt that way too Hekate

Large bottle of Tums on the counter for later today.
