Would this be a record turnaround for revoking a group's rights?
Woooooo here we go 🙃
Fucking knew this was gonna happen. Are they gonna do Loving v. Virginia next?
Fucking knew this was gonna happen.
Everyone should have. It's part of Project 2025 published well ahead of the election.
Kid David didn't exercise her free speech, she discriminated.
Edit: Fuck I'm bad at typing. Kim Davis*
It would be such a dumb move to reverse a ruling this close to its decision and with such messy consequences for thousands of couples and families, of course they are going to do it.
This should be a cut and dry case, where a person used the powers given them from their government position to deny civil rights as outlined by the Supreme Court and the Constitution. This was not them doing their government job, nor was it them just NOT doing their job. If it were the former, then there should be no penalty. If the latter, then they should be fired but shouldn't be held liable.
However, this was them exploiting their power to do a job in a discriminatory way. She didn't just not do her job. She specifically did her job for some people and denied others based on her personal feelings. She should be held personally liable for personally choosing to individually discriminate based on personal feelings.
Here we go.
It's a great day to be an asshole.
The bright side, that even if Alito and Thomas want to revisit just to overturn, according to the article, kavanaugh and Barrett aren't interested in looking at this, hopefully Gorsuch and Roberts feel the same and this case that's turned away
kavanaugh and Barrett aren’t interested in looking at this,
You mean exactly like how they both claimed they had no interest in overturning Roe v Wade until all of a sudden: SURPRISE! True colours revealed!
Don't put any faith in their lies.
