[a fool in paradise]

Adam shit will just make it up anyhow

[Flaming Conservative]

SCOTUS. This involves a basic right to have closed grand jury testimony.

[Jumper]

Let Trump threaten now in response to declas something different to dissuade and harm both Biden and the DNC itself.

[montag813]

Everyone thrilled that Trump is flipping the 9th Circus, but THIS is the most important Appeals court in the U.S., and he’s not even close to flipping it.

Legislative power gone wild. Once legislature creates an agency, the agency becomes part of the Executive branch.

‘Odd’, given the # of non-Legislative agencies creating rules/regs w/ the ‘force of law’

Wholly “unintended”, I’m sure. It would sound like a conspiracy otherwise /s

[headstamp 2]

They are running a white coat case for president. Now they have to try to destroy Trump again 24/7

[fortes fortuna juvat]

Yep.... opinion written by CLINTON JUDGE.
.............................................
Recently the lower Federal courts have managed to usurp the power of the Supreme Court, and in doing so they have undermined the High Court’s constitutional authority.
