Justice Brett Kavanaugh joined the Supreme Court’s majority decision in its vote to allow the Pentagon to consider Navy SEALs’ vaccination status in making deployment decisions.
Although conservative Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, and Neil Gorsuch dissented, Kavanaugh joined the majority’s decision to not intervene with the military’s coronavirus vaccine mandate.
Kavanaugh claimed the district court “in effect inserted itself into the Navy’s chain of command” by halting the military vaccine mandate.
Thirty-five Navy SEALs brought this lawsuit after President Joe Biden’s administration mandated the coronavirus vaccine for all service members.
U.S. District Judge Reed O’Connor of the Northern District of Texas issued an order preventing the Navy from considering the vaccine status of SEALs when giving deployments and other operational assignments in January.
Biden’s administration appealed Judge O’Connor’s ruling to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, which refused to override O’Connor’s preliminary injunction blocking the military’s mandate.
The Supreme Court on Friday issued a stay on the district court’s injunction, allowing the Navy to consider vaccination status for deployments while litigations surrounding the mandate continue.
The SEALs alleged the Navy’s vaccine mandate violated their First Amendment right to religious freedom. However, Kavanaugh claimed the Religious Freedom Restoration Act “does not justify judicial intrusion into military affairs in this case.”
Justice Alito called the Court’s decision “a great injustice” in a dissent joined by Justice Gorsuch.
Justice Alito wrote:
By rubberstamping the Government’s request for what it calls a “partial stay,” the Court does a great injustice to the 35 respondents—Navy Seals and others in the Naval Special Warfare community—who have volunteered to undertake demanding and hazardous duties to defend our country. These individuals appear to have been treated shabbily by the Navy, and the Court brushes all that aside.

Kavanaugh Joins Libs
***That has happened far too frequently. There’s sumthin in the water at SCOTUS.
aww Brett!
.
He does what Roberts tells him.
.
The people who get the saline vaccine want to force everybody else to get the real one.
Who could’ve guessed. “Conservative” judges stay conservative at about a 50% clip. Reagan or Trump, both got taken regularly on this.
Nah, there’s nothing in the water. Kavanaugh is just another Trojan horse from the same old Ivy League lawyers clique.
Safer for the SEALs to be expelled than to be killed through Biden’s OPSEC missteps.
Yes,coward pills.
It seems like a well worn path by this time.
What we need is an ideology matrix for all fed judges. Kinda like how I proposed one for FR.
from my home page

I would like to see a VOLUNTARY idealogy litmus matrix here on Free Republic, but when I proposed it to Jimrob, he called me a newbie.

To: babygene I don’t think he’s all that interested.
To: MHGinTN It doesn’t matter what a FReeper thinks. It’s just a list that they tell us what they think. That way we can tell who we’re dealing with.

To: Jim Robinson Hah hah, that’s great. I signed up 2 months after you and I’m a newbie. Back then no one even said, ‘Welcome to FR. But yeah, I do think that there are tons of RINOs. To be more accurate, the term would be CINOs.
I’ve been pushing for an idealogical litmus matrix here on FR, not to get rid of RINOs but to expose them.
THE GOP DOESN’T WANT US- SO WHAT’S NEXT?

***It simply takes too long. Look at this thread alone. I see evidence of RINOism in some of the FReepers on this thread. It takes 700 posts to drill down. We need the matrix posted and available so that we don’t have to drill down on every FReeping thread. They’re wasting our time. Deliberately.
Agreed to a large degree. Perhaps a way to rate members by other members???

In the absence of an idealogy matrix, I sometimes throw down with a troll if they call me a troll.
You call me a troll, then prepare to throw down point for point on Free Republic’s definition of a conservative. I challenge you — if you are closer to the FR definition than I am, then I take a week off FR, and if I’m closer then you take a week off.
Based on posting history, going through yours and mine. It does not count for you to say you hold such & such position if you never posted it.

Statement by FR’s Founder -—> https://freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1103363/posts
As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc.
Now... I would need some Viking Kitty help in going through your posting history, so I’ll ping one. You ping one of your RINO troll cohorts as well.

It’s pretty clear now that one can no longer ascend to high positions in the US Government unless they have something on you. I guess they thought the Billy Bush tape was enough to stop Trump.
Blackmail? Ass-kissing? Bribery? Soliciting bribery?
Anticonstitutionalist Coward Pills. ACPs.
No more Harvard or Yale appointees.
Too late.
Conservative: small government, individual, decentralized.
Republicans: big government, collective, centralized.
The difference between Republicans and their nemesis Democrats is who gets to be in power, who's corporate interests benefit, what arguments are used to advance an ever greater centralized government invading what should be peoples private sphere or a private market.
Democrats: Social justice, public health and the environment.
Republicans: National security, public safety, and their “morals” if you let them.
Both will equally shit on someone's basic constitutional rights. Both will censor. Both will restrict the rights to redress. Both with use law enforcement and the intel community to go after their political opposition. Both will give their allies kickbacks when in power. Both are for sale to the highest bidder. Both will grow government.
It's your choice, but neither of them is “conservative.” If a political conservative means you believe in a US Constitution and what that was supposed to mean.
Just as I suspected...Kavanaugh is a pussy. I knew it when he cried at his confirmation hearing instead of telling those bitch senators to go F themselves.
What a traitor.
