If they sent it back that means they didn't decide the specific of the cases by definition, and instead they gave a rule for the ages for the lower courts to follow. Which is what they said they were going to do in oral argument. Which is what I said they said in oral argument.
-
I don't think much of anything as been scheduled for months, since this went to the DC court, but honestly I'm not sure. I'm fine with deferring to you that it should have already been done, I don't have that expertise.
-
So are you decrying that she didn't do an evidentiary hearing.... yet?
-
No they really did say thar. Sorry.
-
They actually in their own words in oral arguments, disregarded the facts of specific case and claimed they were making a rule for the ages. I'll take their word for it.
-
It means there's actual rule of law compliant reasons why chutkan can go faster which you decried earlier.
-
The hearings with think tanks like it's cspan or something
-
The nature of the evidence us also very different between the cases, Chutkan isn't dealing with top secret classified documents.
-
Cannon is having hearings inviting 3rd parties not even affiliated with the case. Hard pass on that.
-
If we learn the most basic lesson from yesterday, you don't win what you don't pursue. More power to AOC. Hashtag dts
-
If I'm understanding Biden correctly he says he's going to voluntarily limit his own power. For some reason.
-
Getting less ok with this decision than I was earlier.
-
So like 0% of this ruling is in the words of the constitution, no? More textual healing from the Federalist society
-
Well let's not get crazy. This may be the exception to the rule lol
-
I think the thing they've argued before is that election integrity is an official act/policy area. It's obviously a stretch that they're engaged in election integrity work but with these courts who knows. No doubt it will be litigated and thus delay.
-
It's very possible that we've effectively been living under presumptive immunity for official acts for quite a while. The Obama drone strike example leveraged in the oral arguments is an example.
-
I very cautiously agree with the notions presented by CMRiv and Oblong that the ruling kinda sorta makes sense and could be OK
-
If ethics mattered it shoulda been 8-0 or more like 7-0
-
So there will be a big fight about what is official and not official. More delay.
-
Yep
-
Presumptive immunity for official acts is the interpretation I'm hearing. Nothing for non official acts
-
I could see them doing something specifically for trump and doing like they did in bush v gore and just say oh sorry bros no precedent here were just doing stuff we like
-
You may skip over it. You probably wouldnt skip over it of trump was on the left or if he was Bernie sanders's press secretary. However "We" don't Skip over it.
-
If they didn't allow a replacement VP, then wouldn't' Maga Mike effectively be the VP as the third in line normally? Seems even more reason to not confirm someone if you're Unified Reich.
-
You seem to be suggesting that the folks the Dems saved from themselves a few months ago in order to govern wouldn't return the favor. Shocking they wouldn't do that.
