The provision would bar courts from enforcing contempt citations for violations of injunctions or temporary restraining orders unless a bond has been paid.
YUP. Guaranteed they will. They’ve warned these assclowns to stop fucking with the judiciary, and they’re now signalling they’ll be proactively ruling on things like this.
Idk Thomas has been saying some shit recently that makes it seem like he might be getting tired of Trump’s shit.
Would be hilarious if Trump and Co try to defang the Supreme Court and they just decide to strike down Executive Orders as broadly unconstitutional for anything beyond directing basic executive branch actions, because they are not laws.
Oh my bad, meant to say Roberts. Get the fuckers confused nowadays. Defending the fact that the Judiciary is an equal branch of government and the concept of basic checks and balances.
Genuinely serious. Jackson is Trump’s favorite President for a reason: he exposed that under a determined enough man with enough popular support behind him, neither Congress nor the SCOTUS can actually do anything about a President acting in contravention of a court order. If the SCOTUS says “this bill is unconstitutional”, will it stop anyone from actually acting like it’s in force?
he exposed that under a determined enough man with enough popular support behind him
Well good news, he’s not actually that popular. I’m baffled that he’s still got an aggregate 47% approval rating, but even faux news’ poll has him down to 44% and he was only above 50% in poling for less than a 2 weeks after he came into office.
And that’s all before the most recent news about the medicare/medicaid slashing. And ahead of the coming wave of layoffs due to the economy slowing down. The policies he’s trying to enact are going to (slowly) erode what support he still has as his base realizes just how fucked they are.
I don’t know why people think rules still apply. They might say something but they came out 9-0 against him and he still claims a unanimous victory and the courts, media and American public all just shrug.
Can’t the Supreme court strike this down?
Can SCOTUS strike down a bill that says their rulings don’t have to be followed?
This is what passes as an interesting Paradox to MAGA Nazis.
The same court has already given absolute power to the president, so the minutia doesn’t really matter.

Thomas and Alito would vote to uphold it.
You can’t just assert that. They’ll vote whatever way they’ve been paid to vote.
So… They’ll vote to uphold it?
Look at the quality of character on the court. Compromised. Alcoholics. The kind of people you can get leverage on.
Not voting this down means it would be their last ever check. They’d be voting themselves into irrelevance. Greedy people aren’t likely to do that
This one might be 9-0. Can’t get a free bus or private jet flights if you’re not important.

Uh-oh. The check must have bounced.
Trump keeps forgetting how bribes work. They love money. Not him. His father issues are both a feature and the bug.
Truly interested. Can you give me a little flavor of what was said by “justice” Thomas

It’s safe to assume that Thomas and Alito will just go along with any unconstitutional, fascist BS that Trump’s incels will dream up
Thomas and Robert’s names are easy to confuse. Just remember to ask your self “Which one is the Tom?” and you’ll get it.
Just keeps proving that you should never trust anyone with two first names.
Not even Adam Scott?
ROTFL
He’s probably ready to cash out and retire while Trump can still pick a replacement asshole.
The issue is more: will it matter at all?

Haha. Can they? Who knows. Will they? Probably not.
