Spent most of my life watching Republicans win while "liberals" voted for anyone but the Democratic nominee. All started when I was 12. I'll be long gone off this Earth before any of that is corrected.

Coming soon to a SCOTUS near you.

A federal judge on Tuesday blocked the Trump administration’s plan to add a citizenship question to the 2020 census, with an opinion that found the move by Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross violated the Administrative Procedure Act.


Furman’s decision, if not overturned by a higher court, is a monumental victory for voting rights activists and immigrant advocates, who feared the question would spook immigrant participation in the census. An undercount of those populations would shift political representation and governmental resources away from those communities, in favor of less diverse, less urban parts of the country. Furthermore, there were strong hints that the citizenship data procured would then be used to exclude non-citizenships from redistricting — a long-sought goal of conservatives that would boost Republicans’ electoral advantages.

Hard to imagine the Court passing up the opportunity to hand Republicans this even more vicious voter suppression and gerrymandering tool. I guess our hopes reside in Roberts having a scintilla of respect for his legacy.

uno, tell me I should be more optimistic. Please.

Does this have time to get to the SCOTUS for a ruling before the counting begins? Seems you would need clarity on what the rules are pretty quickly in time for next year.

so what is the over-under of Ginzberg kicking the bucket in the next year and a half?

So, Trump has his transgender military ban.

I knew this was coming. No real justification, no real reasons... this was just to make Evangelicals happy.

I'm told this is temporary because the lower courts need to work through it...

But hey, as this administration has repeatedly shown... our lives don't matter.

It also declined to take up DACA for this term. So a mixed day for Trump.
 
Re: SCOTUS 14: Confirming a Rabid Partisan to Own the Libs

I dont see the SC going all in by hearing then allowing the Census Question. If they even decide to hear it my guess is they rule against it for a bevy of reasons.

I don't think Roberts likes Trump repeatedly trying an end around straight to his doorstep on issue after issue.

That's interesting. Apparently Roberts does not understand that he is part of the grand Supreme Court Plan that the GOP put in place over 30 years ago. Turtle Boy and Trump need him to hold up his end of the deal.

In The New York Times Opinion Section, Brynn Tannehill, a former naval aviator and a defense analyst, writes: The Supreme Court’s "decision was both a devastating blow to me personally, and a disturbing sign of what is to come for transgender people in the United States."

The Supreme Court Just Ended My Military Career

The justices chose not to protect the rights of transgender patriots like me.
