Supreme Court issues major ruling in Republican lawsuit against Obamacare filed by 18 states
Patriot Fetch ^ | 6-17-2021 | Lou

The United States Supreme Court issued their ruling today in a major lawsuit from 18 states that challenged the Affordable Care Act put in place by former President Barack Obama.

This might come to a devastating blow to a vast number of Americans paying higher than normal premiums and/deductibles, but the Supreme Court ruled in a decision, 7-2, that Texas and the 17 other states “lacked standing to challenge its constitutionality.” The lawsuit also included two individuals who stood against the healthcare program that many Americans sometimes stated was overpriced and under-performing compared to their previous health insurances.

In other words, the Affordable Care Act remains in place, making this decision the third challenge that “Obamacare” has defeated and remained intact.

I guess we’re all couch potatoes now because according to the Supreme Court none of us are standing anymore.

Everything that goes to the Supreme Court seems to lack standing.

7-2 huh? What’ll be the vote when the question of “requiring the ‘jab’ for employment” comes up?

When no one has standing to challenge federal lawlessness then nothing is unlawful.

Seems to me that SC lacks (under)standing.

An awful lot of us are coming to the conclusion that the Supreme Court lacks standing with us. When that number gets a bit higher, we can tell the dorks to shove it their collective RINObama holes.

Good thing we fight so hard for Amy conehead Barrett, and the party boy rapist Kavenaugh. Neither one of them ever upholds our rights.

It seems that no one has standing except the left.

That would be 9-0 affirming your employer may require you to have the jab as a condition of employment. The clockwise spiral continues.

The one time SCOTUS actually upholds the rule of “law” is with Obamacare——But the 2A that is one sentence long is open to “interpretation”.

BTW, panzy ass Republicans HAD the chance to over turn it in 2017/2018 but didn’t——they are to blame as well.

Not true! What about all the things that are "moot"?

If none of us has “standing,” then the law must not apply to us. Good!!!!!

The weaseling is more complicated than that. It's not that it is lawful, it's that the person demanding action is some peon who doesn't have the right to use the courts to demand that the law be applied. In layman's terms, sit down and shut up.

How can nine American justices, sworn to uphold the Constitution, hate it and hate our Republic so much? It is truly astounding.
