1. This ruling along with the other terrible rulings this court is going to make will eventually

Backfire!

Our country, the work place, public places have all been kept safe and running well on the backs of safety rules various agencies have created over the decades. Without them, things will fall apart. Foods, drugs, work places, public places will become a hazard and when someone is injured or killed due to lack of safety rules the conservative maga types will be the ones to squawk the loudest!!

Political hacks in robes!!

2. It's the legacy of TFG.

I remember reading that he rescinded or dismantled countless safety rules and provisons that Obama put in place. And he's carrying on that legacy through his unqualified and partisan picks for SCOTUS.

3. Long past time to expand the court & pack with liberals

But to do so, we would need 100% unified senate votes.

[Rhiannon12866]

4. It's unbelievable how far the stature of the Court has fallen - in such a short time

In such a short time, TFG has caused us such problems that will last for at least a generation. And he wasn't even the choice of the voters.

5. Right!

It would be great to level the playing field.

6. Pee-in-the-cup Republicans suddenly don't care about workplace safety???

What is the world coming to?

[Rhiannon12866]

7. Well, most of them aren't concerned, since they're all vaccinated!

Same as Fox "News."

9. Corporate profits protection main argument of the Covid infected pro-covid lawyers.

Corporate installed judges loving the idea, rejecting earth is round, rejecting arguments of the anti-covid side. Cause…profits.

Sickening.

Maybe if one of the lawyers drops dead during remote argument we got a chance?

8. Chief Justice heard...somewhere...more deaths by flu??...the level of ignorance by

the highest judge in the greatest? nation ever ever…is shocking to point of depression.

Thought flat earth, round earth debate was settled after Copernicus, but apparently not.
