Gorsuch’s take down of Robert’s for being a coward is epic.
“Why have some mistaken this Court’s modest decision in Jacobson for a towering authority that overshadows the Constitution during a pandemic? In the end, I can only surmise that much of the answer lies in a particular judicial impulse to stay out of the way in times of crisis. But if that impulse may be understandable or even admirable in other circumstances, we may not shelter in place when the Con- stitution is under attack. Things never go well when we do.”
oh that’s good.

Thanks for the post.
Hopefully a warning shot across his bow for the upcoming Super Bowl of determing to a large degree who our next president will be.
