RE: Pure click bait lying headline.

OK. How should the headline be worded to reflect the content of the article?

The Tenth Amendment (Amendment X) to the United States Constitution, a part of the Bill of Rights, was ratified on December 15, 1791.[1] It expresses the principle of federalism, also known as states’ rights, by stating that the federal government has only those powers delegated to it by the Constitution, and that all other powers not forbidden to the states by the Constitution are reserved to each state.

************************************************************

This Sierra Club ruling by Scotus is in error on it’s face because it ASSUMES that the federal government has any “Constitutional” business regulating the environment within a state to begin with. It does not! State Governors and Legislatures need to WAKE UP and reclaim ANY and ALL usurped powers of the Federal Government.

It’s not about protecting lawyers, this decision follows the black letter of the law. Internal agency discussions and drafts have never been releasable to the public. These are the internal pre-decisional sausage making of batting about good and bad ideas, having arguments, holding discussions, writing and reviewing multiple drafts, up through the final presentation and approval by the legally designated decision maker.

I work for the DoD and we are legally obligated have to hold onto all these records in case of lawsuit, investigations, etc. However FOIA requests only get the requestor the final approved documents. The court followed the law here.

I would not call the ruling particularly “Conservative” in the modern sense to me, just as I am sure Justice Kagan did not support the ruling on “Conservative” grounds.

The ruling was really about the administrative state protecting itself.

While in this case it was a Left wing environmental group that seemed to lose, the ruling, as a new precedent, will inevitably come back to hit Conservatives at some future date when they are trying to drag secrets out of the administrative state.

Under Roberts the court more and more shows itself to NOT be the third INDEPENT branch of the Federal government, just the handmaiden of the administrative state.

Forrest Gump’s words: “A nomination to the Supreme Court is like a box of chocolates...Except you can’t spit it out if it turns out to be crap.”

Hmmm, watched the Forrest Gump movie a bunch of times, but seemed to have missed that quote...but I like it!!

I hate lawyer speak.

Just come out and say what you mean.

We had a three leg stool of giverment. One leg we thought was uncorruptable. We have found out differently.

None of the legs stand for anything and the fourth estate is just ... I don’t care anymore.

People, stop with the ACB. Justices are referred to by the last name, in this case Barrett.

RE: People, stop with the ACB.

You mean we should not have called Ruth Ginsberg RBG?

Should we also stop calling the Congresswoman AOC?

“POS Article at Link”

You don’t get to write your own headlines for articles so if the headline doesn’t accurately describe the content don’t post it.

My title? “POS Article at Link”

I’m being snide. If they really held black-letter law to be sacred, then the part in the constitution about shall have original jurisdiction looks like black letter law to me and they should have heard the Texas case. But they ducked it, I would guess to make court packing unnecessary at the political cost to do it - and it would have been an all out political battle.

Which brings me back to why I despise China Mitch, Kemp and the other RINOs.

No, I don’t generally mind acronyms for some long names, but when speaking of the Supreme Court I think just “Barrett” is appropriate.

Also Thomas, Alito, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, Roberts, Kagan, Sotomayor, and Breyer.

Unfortunately, our likes or dislikes don’t resonate with the press or pundits in general. They will use what ever name they like acronyms or otherwise.

I personally have the habit of using AOC and RBG when referring to the Congresswoman and the Justice.

To each his own.
