Roberts Joins Dissent Blasting Activist Conservatives On The Court For Abusing The Shadow Docket

[skews13]

In a speech at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library Monday, Trump Justice Amy Coney Barrett previewed the horrors to come from the extremist Supreme Court majority. She attempted to posit that the increasingly destructive opinions the majority has issued and will issue are not aimed at imposing a “policy result,” and that Americans should wait and “read the opinion” to learn why the court took those controversial actions.

Two days later, from the shadow docket, Barrett and four of her colleagues gutted states’ ability to protect their own waters, and with it put the 1972 Clean Water Act in jeopardy. Without issuing an opinion for any of us to read. The shadow docket ruling comprises one paragraph reinstating a Trump environmental rule that limits states’ ability to block projects that could pollute rivers and streams pending an appeals court hearing. There is no decision to read in the policymaking move by five conservative justices.

“That renders the Court’s emergency docket not for emergencies at all,”

Yeah Justice Kagan, but Trump got a big payday by that decision. Looks like the fishing for the good ol boys in looseeana just took a turn for the worse.

Thank heaven we don't have an extremist Supreme Court majority.

That would be really scary...

You can make fun of Roberts all you like, but in this case he is not wrong. There is no way, shape or form this was an emergency and none of the states showed any harm that could come to them if this cases went the normal route.

You like it now because your folks are in the majority, but that will not always be the case and what they start the other side will continue

Did you actually read the OP? There is no decision to read because no decision was rendered. They just said the rule stands pending an appeals court decision. That means it IS going through the regular process.

They granted an emergency stay on the case that was not an emergency. They were wrong to do so. They should not have done anything since there was no emergency and there was no harm that was shown to exist.

Evidently they disagree with your assessment. Someone had to make an argument for the stay and that argument must have been convincing.

wait so someone that is doing a project, can have their case heard by a appeals court before being denied out right by a state? wow amazing how you all get some pissed off at the thought of due process

aw you dembot tyrants really hate it when people. get to have due process

 

[Harpy Eagle]

aw you dembot tyrants really hate it when people. get to have due process

this was the opposite of due process

 

[struth]

this was the opposite of due process

haha getting a lawyer, challenging the state…and going to court is due process

telling someone they don’t get to have their case heard is what dembot tyrants cheer

 

[SassyIrishLass]

Roberts lost me in that Obamacare debacle

 

[Harpy Eagle]

There is a process by which cases make it to SCOTUS, this case diverted from that process, it was given favoritism for some reason....a thing we should all hope the justice system does not do

no it didn’t.. It followed the the process…you just disageee that a lawyer successful agrued it was an emergency and requires an emergency injunction

 

[Harpy Eagle]

no it didn’t.. It followed the the process…you just disageee that a lawyer successful agrued it was an emergency and requires an emergency injunction

The lawyer did not even try an argue it was an emergency, that is the problem here.

Do try and keep up

yeah he did, hence why it was granted. Kagen. who never was a judge in her life prior to her unprecedented appointment simply disagrees with the majority

Shhh. Common sense, reason and objectivity are anathema.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

yeah he did, hence why it was granted. Kagen. who never was a judge in her life prior to her unprecedented appointment simply disagrees with the majority

They presented no evidence of why it was an emergency, presented no evidence of any hardship....just said 'hey, this is an emergency" and it was granted....going around the process in place

You are cool with it now as you agree with the decision, but mindless partisan sheep like you are far too shortsighted, once the precedent is set it will become the norm.

Kagen made that claim…the majority of rhe court disageed…said the States would be harmed by the federal govts action
