I can't believe I'm still having to read Kim Davis's name in 2025. GET A HOBBY YOU BORING HOMOPHOBE.

While the outcome isn't certain, this report seems to be doubting that the Supreme Court will hear the case.

In an attempt to summarize: sounds like this low level bureaucrat tried to deny a same sex marriage license, the bureaucrat was taken to court and told "this isn't a free speech issue; the couple is allowed to get married (and also to pay some compensation)", then the bureaucrat tried to appeal. First (or latest?) appeal was in 2019 (and it was NOT taken up by SCOTUS). It kinda sounds like that same deal is gonna happen again.

Hope that saved you a click (and that I have my facts straight on that; please point out if I got anything wrong there).

Isnt those appeals cost a lot of money, I wonder how they can afford that?

A lot of Americans tithe and that money finds its way to lawfare to mandate you live the way they say

That's so fucking ugly, how the fuck do you make something human sha}ed that ugly?

I have burns on my face. I don't look that ugly.

What the fuck is that outfit? How does the fabric color clash so hard with the skin?

The stupidest people in the world love attention.

Her lawyer is also remarkably stupid.

“If there ever was a case of exceptional importance”

Literally wrong. This is one of the stupidest arguments in American history. So moronic it’s embarrassing and everyone else can tell they lack proper brains.

“the first individual in the Republic's history who was jailed for following her religious convictions regarding the historic definition of marriage, this should be it.

Petty tyrants that are dumb as fucking rocks.

I'm not surprised a bit. Considering whether to hear a case in kinda on their job description. My bet is they refuse to hear it and refuse to comment as to why. They've done this before regarding cases against LGTB folks. Hell, I have a whole folder full of surprising SCOTUS decisions. Started collecting those for giggles after several shockers in a row.

Even if you believe SCOTUS is angling to kill same-sex marriage, this is NOT the case they want to hear. Forgot what I read about this months ago, but her arguments are paper thin.
