Law No more nationwide injunctions from district judges

I detest Trump as much as you do. But my god, to suggest that Obama was harder on illegal immigration than Trump is laughable. Obama did it when the political climate was more sane. Everyone was behind it because it was rational. Trump had to take a hard line because leftists went full retard.

You're a Charlotte cat. Things were 100% smoother when that black guy was Prez. It just was. Hem and haw all you want.

There is no direct evidence remotely similar to Biden’s exclamation.

Go fuck yourself. LOOK OVER THERE!!!

You are arguing a racist stance and you know it.

I'm not 100% against this decision; however, if we are going to make this a rule I would like to see more power for districts to force cases in the supreme court.

Also, if a politician is ultimately found to have violated the constitution it shouldn't simply mean that the order is overturned, that politician should be removed from office for breach of oath.

I’ll take Obama over Trump all day every day. You seem to be missing that. But I’ll be fine regardless of who’s president. Not really sure what your point is.

He’s equating Johnson later on saying it “felt right” to what Biden did with Jackson. There’s no definitive evidence that Johnson explicitly stated he would only choose a Black man for the Supreme Court seat that went to Marshall.

Historical records, including Johnson’s own statements and accounts from aides, suggest he was strongly motivated to appoint a Black justice to break racial barriers and advance his civil rights legacy, but they don’t indicate he restricted his choice to a Black man specifically or exclusively.

Opposed to Biden saying he would only be selecting a black woman.

If Jackson, someone who was nominated from an artificially limited pool based on race and gender isn’t a “DEI hire” no one is. That is to say, she is the definition of a “DEI hire”.

There is no direct evidence remotely similar to Biden’s exclamation. Nothing was made public. Having expressed personal desires to continue civil rights progress communicated to a spouse does not equal what Biden did.

Cheers. Very different climate.

This was confirmed in multiple primary sources, which exist in these things called history books in your public library. Or even online!

Can you name a single justice that Johnson had on his short list for that vacancy who was not a black male or female?

You act like Johnson had more nominees in mind and then just decided he wouldn't tell his staff, who in turn would be responsible for vetting.

If Jackson, someone who was nominated from an artificially limited pool based on race and gender isn’t a “DEI hire” no one is. That is to say, she is the definition of a “DEI hire”.

So she's as much of a DEI hire as every single Supreme Court justice who served before Marshall? We keep going in circles because you toss out an ignorant argument and then back peddle when you realize how idiot it is and then try to claim you never made that argument.

My point is what is going on is a fucking mess. I could throw my nephew in and he would run the country better. Trump is a dangerous Autocrat. It's happening, and you motherfuckers with your thumbs up your buttholes aint' helping.

I see you've found a magical exceptional to patch up the holes in your historical knowledge and stance.

Do you also think that it was sheer chance that Clarence Thomas was nominated to replace Marshall?

Oh, nothing much. Just Mike Lee and the GOP doing their usual number trying to sell off millions of acres of public land, wilderness, and wildlife habitat to shitbag plutocrats, private developers, multinational corporations, and foreign governments. Thankfully, they just got dealt a generational defeat. Not a single acre. It was Republicans own constituents in western states who lit them on fire and broke the provision in half. Dems were 100% opposed from the start.

As happy as I am that this horror didn't pass outright, I wouldn't count on it being over. The scale will be dramatically reduced and they will just have to go on a case by case basis trying to shift land directly from the Dept. of Interior (by EO, I'm assuming)

Lol… what?

He took a 6 month paternity leave and no one noticed?

How many EV chargers were built?

At least he told us that bridges were racist. lol

I have no idea about him as a mayor. Maybe he did great? Just don’t know

You desperately need to unplug yourself from social media. Like, badly.

Pete’s paternity leave was 2 months, about 8 weeks. He still participated in urgent matters, high level meetings, things like that. For other things, you’re aware that all of the cabinet positions have a second in command, right? Like, we have a Deputy Sec of Transportation that can handle other tasks if needed.

It’s just incredible to me the way the Right mocks paternity leave. Aren’t you guys always saying that families collapse and there’s all sorts issues because of absentee fathers? But if a father wants to take paternity leave to bind with their newborn—in Pete’s case, his twins also were premature and had health issues early on—you guys mock it. We should all want guaranteed, paid maternity and paternity leave. FFS, women can get guaranteed paid maternity leave in most African nations, but not the good ol USA. It’s shameful.

It’s even more astounding because of the big push (and proposed tax break) from the Right for people to have kids. But once born, you oppose maternity and paternity leave, want to gut SNAP, Medicaid, siphon money from public education…

Pete never said bRiDgES are RaCiSt either.

I don’t know what you’re referring to with EV chargers, unless you mean this fake news story that spread on social media. And you probably do mean that, because that’s your MO. It’s seriously remarkable how much nonsense you believe about people and issues because you read some salacious, fake, easily digestible 144 character trash.

Before Pete became mayor, South Bend was featured in an article about “dying cities in America.” His Smart Streets initiative totally changed that. It completely redeveloped and revitalized downtown South Bend, and brought in 200 million dollars in private investment into the city. The city spent money to totally revitalize the city’s parks, which had declined for decades.

And a really cool thing he did there was the Smart Sewer program. It uses electronic sensors to detect levels or storm water and wastewater, and divert excessive amounts to other areas to prevent overflows—it saved South Bend 450 million dollars.

‘Smart sewer’ technology leads to nearly $450 million in savings for South Bend

Researchers in the College of Engineering developed the technology to help cities with combined sewer systems comply with federal water quality standard...

So, you're saying that neither Congress, nor the USSC can reverse or overturn an EO?

I guess the next President can't reverse an EO issued by the outgoing President, either?

Read again man.

 

[Rod1]

Any citizen can file or get their congress person to file.

Then congress can like i said restrict what executive orders can be issued if they want to pass a bill.

Ah yes, the citizen needs Congressional approval before the individual can aspire for their rights.


"Sir, im protected against illegal search and seizure"
"When did Congress approved that YOU specifically have that right?"

Just like the founding fathers envisioned it.

It cracks me up when someone comes into the war room like a wolf in sheep’s clothing. You’ve acted like one of the more reasonable leftists but I knew it was temporary. This is you. You hate people that disagree with you. Sad.

if your argument is that DEI hires are racist, I agree.

You’re flailing. I feel bad for you. Take a breather.

How does that help anyone who was already wrongly deported?
This is the piece I find missing from SCOTUS’s decision—without nationwide injunctions, how do wrongly deported people get relief? If we have to wait for a judge to declare a group a putative class in a class action suit, how does anyone wrongly deported in the interim time get relief?

 

[scoopj]

Primary sources, as well as the diaries of his and his wife. We also know the small handful of nominees that were considered before settling on Marshall.

As I told rob, this is super basic civics. How can you read Johnson's comments regarding Marshall's nomination, "[it's] the right thing to do, the right time to do it, the right man and the right place" as anything other than an acknowledgment of intentionally picking a black justice.

The language is nearly verbatim of those who voted for Obama because they thought it was time for a black president.

Why is it that I love that from Johnson (he was right) but hate it from Biden (he was wrong)? Could it be Johnson was lead by conscience and Biden was lead by politics?
