No not always

He will have more lattitude to side with liberals because hes not the decider

So if hes been blackmailed they’ll demand his dissent

To show hes evolved

Whattayaknow. Yurtle the Turtle had it in him after all. Looks like I have to eat my hat as I promised a fellow FReeper I would if Yurtle pulled this off.. Welp, better get going on it. And I’m all out of Tabasco, too. Shoot. I’ll try some A-1.

Pretty good day considering Schumer called it the darkest day in our history.

And it's not even WINTER yet!

That was what I had heard to, but Senate.Gov says 53-46 with Kamala Harri not voting.

By the title, I thought it was the new sniper rifle caliber.

You’re looking at a vote on the ruling of the chair that was taken shortly after 5 p.m. On confirmation, Collins voted “NO”, saying it was too close to the election date as her reasoning (however faulty it is).

...If Roberts sides with the minority on a 5-4 vote, Justice Thomas determines who writes the opinion...

I heard the same.

I have also heard that Thomas wants to write a 2A opinion. Would Roberts be such a clown as to join with one just to assign it to someone else? Or would the 5 conservatives insist on a really strong decision so as to force Roberts into a dissent and Thomas could assign it to himself?

I agree. Would rather have her than a democrat, even if she votes with them. We need the majority!
