He wants it to go all the way to the supreme court so they can rule in his favor and further erode the separation of church and state. Fuck these assholes and this timeline...
Honestly, I can't see how SCOTUS could rule in his favour. The US constitution clearly states that there is a seperation between church and state. For SCOTUS to rule in his favour would require them overturning the constitution itself.
Nah, all they'd have to do is make up a bullshit interpretation that fits the political opinions of them and their billionaire friends. That's basically what the majority of them are there for to begin with.
The Constitution also clearly states that anyone who breaks their oath of office to commit treason against the country shall not hold political office unless cleared by 2/3rds majority in Congress. It's time to admit that the rules are all made up and the Constitution doesn't matter.
The SCOTUS is thoroughly corrupt. We have three sitting justices who have been exposed as accepting bribes from parties with matters before the court, and we have two that are known to have committed perjury during their confirmation hearings.
There is zero accountability or recourse. We no longer live in a country with a rule of law.
I agree with this. I dont think this one was thought through. We shall see what the illegitimate court thinks. If they agree with him that should be our final line as a people.
The Constitution is just an interpretation of the teachings of the Founding Fathers. SCOTUS is the only body that has a direct line of communication to the Founding Fathers. We can rely on them to convey to the masses what the Founding Fathers truly intended.
(I think this is sarcasm, but I wouldn't be surprised if they used this logic)
Maybe youth weren't paying attention to the Dobbs decision where they ignored the 9th amendment entirely and half of the 14th.
The SCOTUS ruling on college loan forgiveness they simply said "we know the law explicitly says that you can do this but we don't like it so, no and we're not actually justifying this decision with any kind of criteria"
Why would Robert's Supreme Court care about the Constitution?
The Constitution specifically states, "Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;" which is probably going to mean SCOTUS will rule that it's okay because it's a STATE Congress and not the federal Congress specifically called out in the Constitution making a law respecting the establishment of a religion. This seems like a solid letter of the law but not the spirit sort of reading that christofacists want.
Unfortunately, I don't believe you'll find that wording in the constitution.
Exactly right... what should happen is that the Satanic Church, any Islam denomination, the Spaghetti Monster, etc should all start putting up their own billboards everywhere...
While SCOTUS is compromised, there is no point in playing their game
Just a heads up The Satanic Temple are the righteous group that litigates all these radical zealots. They don't believe in a literal Satan unlike the Church of Satan.
Damnit Abed. Do not roll the dice.
