All Things SCOTUS

[NorthDakota]

Trump wants someone who will fall in line with his vision of the powers of the Presidency - a Barr or a Kavanaugh - and views judicial decisions against his Administrative actions amounting to a betrayal. A Constitutional expert may view those differently. I would not be surprised if he nominated Barr, Cotton or Hawley.

Harvard or Yale - hopefully not for the diversity of the Court

Roe v Wade - I thought that came up when Feinstein questioned ACB for her Appeals Court nomination. I think ACB disagrees with Casey. I could be wrong.

Female - I may be reading into Trump's personality, but I don't think he values females as co-equals. (or equals if my grammar has failed me)

Family - I doubt he puts much stock into Barrett adopting two Haitian children. Now if they were Puerto Rican... Maybe he could spin the fact she gave those "losers" a chance. They will have a few advantages to be accepted into ND as legacies and minorities. Maybe she is a closet Affirmative Action proponent.

A.) He also nominated Neil Gorsuch. Not exactly Mr. Unita ry Executive Disciple. Also you seem to imply that only some of these judges are experts on the Constitution, anyone who gets nominated to the Supreme Court is probably pretty exceptionally knowledgeable on the Constitution.

B.) He already said it would almost certainly be a woman nominated. Further, I very much doubt that any President is going to analyze where a lady adopts their children from.

C.) Don't bother putting stock into what these people generally say during hearings... but saying Roe is precedent is just a factual statement. I don't know if she'd vote to overturn it or not but that statement is just acknowledging a fact, particularly in light of what job she was being confirmed to do.

Most of this read like a lazy journalist invented a caricature of the President and determined this was the proper lens to view the President's choices through.

I want Barrett.

Not because she's a woman or any other factor than she appears to be the best choice. I don't like the idea of shopping for a SCOTUS justice based on elections. The right judge will help rally conservatives, especially those who don't like mean tweets in the election.

Just fill the seat with a reliable constitution friendly voice.

+1 for being a ND catholic

Take a closer look at Lagoa. I think you'll like her. Only thing that was curious to me is her father in law is a judge appointed by Clinton lol. I'm sure more info will come out now that her name has been dropped.

I do agree ACB is probably the more experienced, but she's more vulnerable to criticism. If Lagoa is the constitutionalist I think she is though, likely not much different in terms of performance.

Personally I care about getting the least resistance if both are equal in terms views. And if she gets the least resistance, AND helps a little more on votes than ACB, double bonus.

George Steppy floating the idea of impeaching the president to prevent a vote to Pelosi. She didn't seem to mind the idea

It's beyond crazy time now.

Another failed impeachment would be great! Trump's numbers rose after the last one, it could be one more blunder by the Democrats that leads to Trump's re-election.

Almost got to the end without using an adjective about my posting and just stating how you disagree. YJ can't help himself.

A touch of devil's advocacy lends to any discussion. If you feel like, tell us what you think of my link to Heritage Foundation's Administrative State or a Federalist article on that and the Constitution. Or just your opinion. Of course, all Justices know the Constitution. Gorsuch and ACB may well stop more exercise of unitary executive powers.

Should Trump be re-elected, we shall see more government by executive orders with a divided or Democratic Congress.

Murkowski and Collins have now said that they oppose taking up a nomination before Election Day. Trump's "worst Senator" Romney hasn't spoken yet. If Kelly is elected, he will assume the seat after Election Day. Would a lame duck Susan Collins, if that were to occur, favor taking up a nomination then and would vote with Trump?

lol... It's just funny that you can read your own post and not see it reads like an MSNBC piece. Nominate Barr? Wut. Trump an enemy of Constitutionalists? Wut? Trump doesn't want a women after he just leaked two front runners that are women? Wut? Your chirp about Haitian and PR children is just off-the-wall-bizaro-needs-medication level type stuff. I could go on.

A touch of devil's advocacy lends to any discussion. If you feel like, tell us what you think of my link to Heritage Foundation's Administrative State or a Federalist article on that and the Constitution. Or just your opinion.

What does that article have to do with your post on ACB? Because you connect it to ACB because you think Trump lies about what he wants, because all he really wants is a puppet. Holy fucktard.

Murkowski and Collins have now said that they oppose taking up a nomination before Election Day. Trump's "worst Senator" Romney hasn't spoken yet. If Kelly is elected, he will assume the seat after Election Day. Would a lame duck Susan Collins, if that were to occur, favor taking up a nomination then and would vote with Trump?

Just about all those folks would have to vote against the nomination for it to fail. Some or all would more likely simply abstain.

Seek help.

Seek help.

It's called sarcasm and humor. Didn't think italics were needed.

It's probably closer to reality than what you get from John Oliver or Kimmel though lol.

I mean, much of it seemed rather plausible...certainly the peacefully burning and looting of shit.

Yea, that shit kind of already happened.

Toronto missed the true conspiracy days on IE. Perhaps he should take a stroll through some older posts.

I wonder how GI41 and Eddy are taking the news that their favorite justice isn't sitting on the Court anymore.

Blame Ginsberg.

https://www.redstate.com/shipwrecke...he-needed-to-do-was-what-anthony-kennedy-did/

If you are on the court and want your death to be about you, retire before you’re holding down a seat. Ginsburg should have stepped down a year ago or more when her health was diminishing. She stuck around to outlast Trump.

If it wasn’t obvious with the sick attempt to destroy Kavanaugh, the court is 100% political to the outside. At least it appears to be civil and normal once you are on the bench.

Sounds like hell - I do remember lurking back in 2018, and man it seemed like more of a wasteland in the political threads then it is now. When I first joined in 2016 I remember getting a rep from NDinLA and feeling like a boss lol.

You experience perpetual grace when you have received your 3rd rep from Whiskeyjack.

Anyone know where our favorite fat boy wizards is at

I used to be active on an FCS board back when NDSU kicking ass all the time was fun...and man that place was bananas.

Southern good ol boys and Montana mountainmen prepping for rebellion against the government...led by Barack HUSEIN Obama...

Left Coast statists advocating for weird stuff. The bizarre Trump/Russia stuff...man. ivy League and the private safety-school guys ready to throw hands at anyone west south or west of Philly like it was 1862.

Really opens up some podunk NoDak kid's eyes...we got some weirdos out there man.

I should get some Seth Abramson and Louise Mensch to spice things up is what you're saying....

Only if you post a full Abramson thread. All 400 tweets. I can't pos rep from my phone but I would log onto my laptop in order to.

Anything Seth Abramson is lit af.

 

[Irish YJ]

I'm sure both Abramson and Mensch's stuff was gospel to some. Folks want to believe what they want to believe. And will seek out things that support what they want to believe. And back in the day here, my attempt at humor/satire/sarcasm, was pretty tame compared to some of the "truths" that were floated around here.

Weirdos and extremes everywhere these days lol. As far as college kids and college life... There were certainly pockets of "different" folks 25-30 years ago when I went to IU, but come the weekend, or Little5, we all played well together and didn't think twice about sharing a keg or handle with anyone. The stuff I hear these days from family and friends with kids in college blows my mind. The fringes are more cultish than ever.

ACross is Acamp was the kicker,...

Since your comments the other night, I now picture you like

I mean, I’ve been trying to get them to take my picture down for years but no luck just yet.

Don't get me wrong. Huge upgrade from previous vision of metro man bun Cali hipster.

I might fall in love if you were to take up cowboy boots.

You were abducted by aliens too sometime, circa 2015.

Circa is an alien? Whoa. That explain everything.
