The Supes are Collapsing the Libs' House of Cards

And boy, are they freaking out about it.

Back in 2017, with the help of my court guru, “Zen Master,” I wrote a piece called "Courting Success, Bigly." Mostly at Zen Master’s urging, I discussed the then monumental changes that President Trump had already started to make in the court system. He had been moving judges in to federal courts at a rapid rate, undoing much of what Zero had done in his eight useless years.

Those chickens, to quote Zero’s old racist preacher mentor Jeremiah Wright, “have come home to roooooossssst.” In the past several weeks, we have seen one titanic court decision after another, akin to a John Wick-like character wading into a wave of opponents and mowing them down without even breaking his stride.

The festivities started off with a number of mundane, even boring procedural cases, then slowly heated up with Oklahoma v. Castro-Huerta, a decision written by Justice Brett Kavanaugh, that allowed Oklahoma to prosecute non-Indian cases on Indian reservations. Given that much of Oklahoma itself consists of reservations, this was pretty important,

Then came the biggies. In a critical gun rights case—-not long after the Uvalde shooting and massive pressure placed on the Court to support gun restrictions—-Justice Clarence Thomas wrote the majority decision in New York State Rifle and Pistol Association v. Bruen. Two plaintiffs had brought a case against New York for its imposition of an additional set of rules to transport (“bear”) arms even for license holders. Thomas, as is his wont, ranged deep into history to underscore the right to keep and bear arms was fundamental, implied individual ownership (not militia participation), and could not be subjected to an additional layer of regulations. He cited Dred Scott and Chief Justice Roger Taney’s statements about the dangers of blacks owning firearms in his opinion, a tweaking worthy of Samuel Alito citing Lawrence Tribe in the Dobbs abortion case.

From Gorsuch in Berger v. North Carolina State Conference of the NAACP came a ruling in the contested redistricting of that state. The court ruled that North Carolina lawmakers can intervene in the litigation to defend the state voter ID law). Later in the term, the Court allowed Louisiana to use the redistricting map it created, a decision CNN said would result in "diluting the power of black voters." Or, any decision that allows the people’s representatives to govern themselves and set their own legislative districts must de facto be racist. Uh huh.

Then the nuke. Samuel Alito, writing for the majority in a 6-3 vote with a limp-wristed concurrence from John Roberts, struck down Roe v. Wade and Casey and ended the national right to an abortion, throwing the issue back to the states. Alito, in Dobbs v. Jackson Women's Health Organization, dissected the terribly-reasoned law that made up Roe, leaving little hope of reviving it short of an absolute dominant lefty majority in the courts.

Then Chief Justice John Roberts found a case he could really sink his legal teeth into: West Virginia v. EPA. The Court ruled that the EPA had vastly overreached its authority and aggrandized powers meant for Congress. Even more than Dobbs, this seemed to trigger leftists into paroxysms of rage. In its hysterical and comical response to Roberts’ opinion in the EPA case, Slate wrote that the Chief Justice “performs grisly surgery on the Clean Air Act to mutilate one of its key provisions,” an odd choice of words given what abortionists do. CNN shrieked that the ruling “will gut” major provisions of the EPA. Well, let’s hope so!

The fact is that earlier, the Fifth Circuit cut into the Deep State's power with a ruling against the SEC in Jarkesy v. SEC that similarly snout-thumped the gluttonous bureaucracies.

In a pair of decisions involving religious freedom and church/state issues, Gorsuch wrote the opinion in Kennedy v. Bremerton School District in which a Washington school district had attempted to prevent a coach from praying on his own time with no students around. Naturally, the court struck that down. Prior to that, Roberts wrote a decision in Carson v. Makin which held that a state must provide tuition assistance to all students, including those going to religious schools, and could not exclude them just because they were attending religious schools.

There “seemed” to be a last-minute victory for the lefties in another Roberts written 5-4 decision, Biden v. Texas. This struck down the Trump-era “stay in Mexico” policy, but it was not as clear as it originally appeared. The case will now go back to Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk, who issued the original ruling that sided with the Trump administration. He must now align it with the Court’s requirements and his new order likely will be upheld by the Fifth Circuit, as libtoid Ian Millheiser noted. No win for Biteme here, only a delay.

Slate continued to melt down over the EPA decision, calling the day it came down “the most hopeless day of the SCOTUS term.” The Washington Post said "with sweep and speed" the Court’s conservatives have brought a “new era.” Yep. Probably the best was the abject surrender when a lefty lawyer admitted they have lost the courts entirely, observing (after Dobbs the "path forward is not through the courts."

As the Supes left the building, they agreed to review the Moore v. Harper case in North Carolina next term, in which "independent state legislature" theory is decided. Under that theory, state legislatures have broad power to set rules for federal elections, even if state courts say those rules are unconstitutional. This promises to be a big win for conservatives. Once again, the spooge-filled Slate engaged in insane predictions when it says “An extreme decision here could fundamentally alter the balance of power in setting election rules in the states and provide a path for great threats to elections.” NBC hysterically claims the decision will bring "chaos" to the elections, which, of course it won’t—-it is state courts inserting themselves into the proper role of legislatures that brings chaos. And all this from the party that literally stole the 2020 election. Of course, they always accuse us of doing what they are doing.

All of this—-100%—-was the work of Donald John Trump.

Not only did his team do the work to make sure there were no Anthony Kennedys, no David Souters, and no Sandra Day O’Connors in the batch, but in the case of Brett Kavanaugh, lesser presidents would have folded under the criticism and withdrawn his nomination for a “safer” (i.e., leftier) pick. This was all Trump. Yet National Review’s idiotic Kevin Williamson, whose logic rises to the level of a Mariana snailfish, said "This was not Donald Trump's victory."

Dear anal-clot National Review: the Progdoodles know exactly who is responsible. The hideous “People for the American Way” tell us exactly who to thank, as their blogs almost all begin with "Trump judges." Even lefty Chuck Todd said that the court cases meant that the 2016 election of Trump was "the most consequential election" in the last century. Indeed, one could argue that Biteme’s first (and, we hope, only) term was the greatest of Trump’s two terms!

The erstwhile Federalist chastised these fecal-rats by demanding that after Roe the Never Trumpers should just admit they were wrong." Won’t happen, as I’ve opined here on several occasions because the so-called NeverTrumper “conservatives” were never conservative at all and only used conservative arguments and positions as props to maintain their paid pundit gigs, boat tours, and television appearances. Snot-slabs such as Jonah Goldburger, David Frenchry, Max Bootless, and the rest need to be permanently and with prejudice driven from every conservative organization and speaking appearance in existence as one would a devout Leninist.

Even with the Court in recess, the Texas state supes slapped down a Texas judge who had blocked the the state's abortion law from taking effect. It seems Trump’s judicial legacy has, in the words of the Carpenters, “Only just begun.”
