We have the third and final ruling of the day, in Garland v. Cargill, the bumpstock case. It is by Justice Thomas, and the vote is 6-3. Sotomayor dissents, joined by Kagan and Jackson.

The question in this case is whether a bumpstock (an accessory for a semi-automatic rifle that allows the shooter to rapidly reengage the trigger to fire very quickly) converts the rifle into a machinegun. The court holds that it does not.

The pricks. The most important case of all is Trump’s, and nothing. But maybe that’s a good sign. Maybe they will say he is immune and they want to put that out last so they can flee to Malta...

That is an unexpected ruling, given the latitude the ATF and other regulatory agencies have.

This may have knock on effects.

Good ruling.

Good! Next, let’s get a ruling that the Second Amendment applies to everyone, equally, across the US, to preempt infringing state and local laws.

A 3rd grader could have told them it DID NOT.

Good ruling.

I hope President Trump learns from this and stays in his lane.
