How many decades back in time would I have to look to find a Supreme Court this Liberal?
Anybody know? Earl Warren?
They can have Cali. We’d be back to a constitutional republic in no time without that political disaster pulling us down.
Of the 3 really bad decisions that the supreme political court spewed forth this week, this is really, quite possibly the worst. The legal theory approved by the court is going to impact everything from real estate to election laws.
What sane individual is going to ever trust a court that says there’s no evidence necessary to bring charges?
State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a State, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to Congress [emphases added]. Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
Also, the only discrimination-related rights that the states have amended the Constitution to expressly protect which the feds have the 14th Amendment authorization to regulate is voting rights, such protections evidenced by the 15th, 19th, 24th and 26th Amendments.
So anti-state sovereignty justices are once again trying to weaken 10th Amendment-protected state powers by enforcing housing lawsuits on the basis of constitutionally nonexistant federal government power to regulate intrastate commerce, and likewise nonexistant constitutional protections.
that the answer- just do it where the pols and judges live
