A Big FUCK YOU to SCOTUS

 Friday afternoon at the Supreme Court

drumpf is out of office, but decisions made WHILE he was in office are creating shockwaves across the country just this week.

Friday's decision  rescinds ROE v Wade

• The vote to overturn Roe v. Wade was 5-4. Alito wrote the majority opinion, joined by Thomas, Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett.
• The vote to uphold Mississippi’s abortion restriction was 6-3. Roberts voted with the majority for that outcome, but he said in a separate opinion that he would not have overturned Roe.
• Breyer, Kagan, and Sotomayor filed a joint dissent.
• Twenty-six states are expected to ban all or nearly all abortions in the wake of Friday’s ruling.

Thursday's decision in New York State struck down a handgun-licensing law that required New Yorkers who want to carry a handgun in public to show a special need to defend themselves.

This landmark decision came less than six weeks after a gunman killed 10 Black people at a Buffalo supermarket, and less than a month after 21 people – 19 children and two teachers – were shot to death at an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas. In response to those shootings, the Senate this week reached an agreement on bipartisan gun-safety legislation that, if passed, would be the first federal gun-control legislation in nearly 30 years. The 80-page bill would (among other things) require tougher background checks for gun buyers under the age of 21 and provide more funding for mental-health resources.

Tuesday's decision 

Court strikes down Maine’s ban on using public funds at religious schools

The Supreme Court on Tuesday ruled that Maine violated the Constitution when it refused to make public funding available for students to attend schools that provide religious instruction. The opinion by Chief Justice John Roberts was a broad ruling, making clear that when state and local governments choose to subsidize private schools, they must allow families to use taxpayer funds to pay for religious schools.

The decision was the latest in a series of cases in recent years in which the court has sided with parents and religious institutions challenging state policies that barred them from receiving education-related funds that were available for secular, but not religious, recipients.

The court’s three liberal justices dissented from Tuesday’s decision, with Justice Sonia Sotomayor cautioning that her colleagues had “upended constitutional doctrine” and expressing “growing concern for where this Court will lead us next.”

Rusty Bowers

Arizona Speaker Rusty Bowers blocked January 6 scheme

 to avoid being 'a winner by cheating'

January

Speaking at the fourth January 6th Committee hearing Bowers said
“I may, in the eyes of men, not hold correct opinions or act according to their vision or convictions, but I do not take this current situation in a light manner, a fearful manner or a vengeful manner,” he said. “I do not want to be a winner by cheating. I will not play with laws I swore allegiance to. With any contrived desire toward deflection of my deep, foundational desire to follow God’s will as I believe he led my conscience to embrace. How else will I ever approach him in the wilderness of life knowing that I ask this guidance only to show myself a coward in defending the course … he led me to take.”

Officer Harry Dunn touches his forehead to the temple-forehead of Shaye Moss after she testifies.

From Dr. Jack Brown on twitter (@DrGJackBrown)

Touching one's forehead, temple, &/or eye region to forehead, temple, or eye region of another is a highly reliable sign of affection. This #BodyLanguage signal is deeply rooted in our nervous system
