Some time ago, during a conversation, I gave this choice: if it came down to Trump being re-elected, or another Supreme Court selection, I would choose the latter, as it the effect would last far longer than four years.
Soooo......today, the jack-pot: one of the tin-pot Democrat dictators put in his place:
"Supreme Court Blocks Covid-19 Restrictions on Religious Services in New York
Justice Amy Coney Barrett cast the pivotal vote to depart from past cases
WASHINGTON—The Supreme Court blocked New York from imposing strict limits on attendance at religious services to combat Covid-19, with new Justice Amy Coney Barrett casting the pivotal vote to depart from past cases that deferred to state authorities on public-health measures.
In orders issued shortly before midnight Wednesday, the court, in a 5-4 vote, set aside attendance limits that Gov. Andrew Cuomo imposed on houses of worship in areas most severely affected by the coronavirus: 10 people in red zones and 25 in orange zones. Chief Justice John Roberts and three liberal justices dissented.
The Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn and Agudath Israel of America, an Orthodox Jewish organization, alleged that the limits violated their First Amendment rights of religious exercise.
Mr. Cuomo said Thursday that the Supreme Court ruling had no effect on the state’s virus control efforts, and pertained only to a specific Brooklyn “red zone” that was no longer under such restrictions.
Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh, in addition to Justice Barrett, made up the majority."
Look at those five names......and remember an earlier post of mine about Brutus....er, Roberts: His displeasure with Trump makes this petty man side with the Liberals.
Perhaps is Trump were gone, he would return to his promised conservatism.
But based on this decision.....perhaps not.
