- It's already bad, but would it be any worse if he only got to replace Thomas and Alito? -- nm - Dano Jun 21, 08:54 5
  - with Amarillo Matt and James Ho? absolutely -- nm - hollywood big shot Jun 21, 10:20 2
    - see also this guy -- (link) - hollywood big shot Jun 21, 10:21 1
      - Maybe Trump needs to appoint qualified people instead of lackies -- nm - Trending Jun 21, 10:22
  - He’d get to appoint at least 2 unqualified ideologues in their 30s -- nm - Tim Jun 21, 09:22
  - Locks it in for another 30 years. -- nm - Reagen Jun 21, 08:56

  - I hid it from my YouTube feed. I just can't deal with watching anything about Trump. It's all nightmare fuel. I know what their plan is and it's - Krusty Jun 21, 08:35
Roberts is going to regret not dealing with Thomas. Press is already seriously investigating and after this next Pres election… - Trending Jun 21, 07:46 3

- Roberts authoring the opinion and framing it as consistent with Thomas’ own prior 2A opinion is him “dealing with Thomas” -- (link) - hollywood big shot Jun 21, 08:11 1
  - Yeah—I’m speaking more to not dealing with Thomas and his ethics violations…kinda like if MLB didn’t do anything to Pete Rose for betting on sports - Trending Jun 21, 08:38
I’m actually surprised it was that lopsided. Alito is a wing nut as well. -- nm - Will Hunting Jun 21, 07:29 2
- I mean they still overturned the bump stock ban for no good reason -- nm - hollywood big shot Jun 21, 08:08 1
  - But even Alito made it clear in that opinion that a law banning bumpstocks would be constitutional. -- nm - pmb Jun 21, 08:30
(this is the only decision of consequence today. We'll have to see what they do next Wednesday) -- nm - decline Jun 21, 07:28
