But Patriots need to do more than just complain about it and cheer for Turmp. There’s gotta be a bunch of Patriots somewhere that could take over network news from these jackals and “demonrats”.

Praying.

Wow, 5-3, one idiot liberal not showing up!

Perhaps the self-defense mechanism common to all living things is kicking in for our Republic. The fact that we elected Trump was the first sign of really waking up. Now let’s make sure that he’s re-elected and can name another couple hundred judges (and hopefully another couple of USSC Justices).

I’d like to drop a anvil on that NAZI bastard’s head. But kudos to Justice Kavanaugh.

I still ask the question.

Why is it this Nazi collaborator (Soros) has not been arrested by Israel and put on trial?

And do not give me the excuse that he was only 14. In his interview with Croft, Croft asked him if he had any remorse for doing what he did, he indicated he did NOT have ANY REMORSE WHAT-SO-EVER.

first, thanks for posting this, because when it came out in July I totally missed it.

Second, here’s a good summary:

https://www.jdsupra.com/legalnews/supreme-court-decides-agency-for-24835/

Third, you sadly do not understand it correctly.

The court ruled in 2013 that conditioning government aid on the receiving organization pledging to be against prostitution and human trafficking violates the organization’s free speech.

So naturally the government went back into the business of handing our our money to organizations that promote prostitution. Because why would the whores handing our money flinch at giving it to prostitution promoters. But I digress.

Trump correctly figured out that the court’s ruling applied only to U.S organizations, because foreigners do not have rights under the US Constitution. So they froze the aid to foreign prostitution promoters.

Of course two different courts disagreed but last month (which is not the definition of “just”) the Supreme Court found that the government CAN force foreign aid recipients to pledge to be against prostitution and trafficking, even if they’d love to support both of those things.

This is BIGLY YUGE! If I understand it properly, Soros and the dimocrats who take his money can be charged with election tampering. Is that a correct take on this ruling?

You don't understand it correctly. The case hinged on foreign aid to combat infectious disease. There's a US policy that only agencies that have a specific policy again sex trafficking can get funds. The US branch of Open Society doesn't want to have that policy for whatever reason, and sued in 2013. The court found at that time that the law could not be enforced because it was an infringement of free speech (which includes the right not to speak). Then Open Society sued again, this time on behalf of its foreign affiliates. This time the court said that, no, those affiliates are foreign and don't have the same right. Spinning that decision into some fantasy of Soros being arrested for election interference, along with any Democrat politician who accepted money from him is fantasy. Here's a more detailed analysis from a legal blog

From what I gather, US Non-profits have a right to free speech. That’s how political PACs and other orgs can out out their own campaign messages/ads. US non-profits are required to be against prostitution by law to be eligible for i1st amndmt. Open Society has not been against prostitution and claim they have to be neutral due to some of the locations they work in. Hence Open Society has just lost their 1st amendment rights in the US.

I don’t know if it affects their ability to pump money into candidates.

Throw soros in jail to spend his last years where he cannot hurt anyone.

Nope. There's a 2013 Supreme Court decision specifically upholding their 1st Amendment rights in the US.

This case is about their foreign affiliates.
