The Supreme Court just gave the Trump administration a green light to traffic humans to random countries around the world—including war zones where migrants face torture, slavery, or death. And the…
Defying precedence is a rogue act, regardless of whether they can reverse engineer an argument for it or not. The Constitution didn’t change, going rogue and declaring old decisions “wrong” delegitimizes their whole role. If they can just make up new decisions we don’t have laws, we have opinions.
As to the attack on gender affirming care, sexual discrimination is federally prohibited by law because sex is a federally protected class. That’s the law. If you read their decision, their argument is basically “it doesn’t count because reasons” and it’s entirely farcical. Another rogue decision.
And they just made a new rogue decision taking away habeas corpus from anyone sent to another country by ICE. Now Courts can’t stop deportations, people will get deported to third countries and then have to argue that their deportation was illegal.
You know we’re probably very close on the political spectrum.
I’ve just studied a lot history, and you’ve basically described the entire debate that’s been within the Supreme Court since day 1.
Look at slavery and segregation. They ruled in favor of those several times, and eventually they even reversed their decisions. Like you said the constitution didn’t change the court did. I wouldn’t say ending school segregation was a rogue act.
I personally hate this court. But I think it is very important to analyze these decisions in the historical context of the court.
Like I said these decisions are terrible for the American people, they will take decades to repair, and cause terrible harm. My hope is we make it out of this and we have true reform of the courts.
Between you and me I’d love to see this whole system torn down, but I’m doubtful that will happen in my lifetime.
And I’ll give you the suspension of habeas corpus and they released a multitude of decisions today. Your comment from days ago is now much much more accurate imo based on the decisions of the past 2 days.

Stop defending the Court. It’s embarrassing.
