Cat fight at the Supreme Court!

Original Article

Posted By: Big Bopper, 6/28/2025 10:38:01 AM

Girls don’t usually fight. There are sound reasons for this – reasons of general decorum, biology, hormones, jewelry, dresses and hairdos. But when they do, boy oh boy, it can be a doozy. It happened yesterday at the Supreme Court. The case was an appeal of a district court order issuing a “universal injunction” against President Trump’s executive order seeking to abolish “birthright citizenship.” Birthright citizenship is the kind you get if you’re born in America even if your parents are here illegally. The 14th Amendment seems to provide for it, although there is a non-frivolous argument that it does not.

It wasn't a fair fight. Kentecloth Brown Jackson, Old Demented's DEI SCOTUS appointment, is a mental midget who couldn't think her way out of a paper bag.

Justice "I don't know what a woman is" Jackson is a low IQ person who sees the entire world through the dark and warped lens of anti-white racism. She is racist to her core, and no issue, in her warped mind, is not a "white supremacist issue". This inevitably leads her to make absolutely nonsensical writings from the bench. And Justice Barrett is a high IQ individual, and sees through these nonsense writings and apparently has run out of patience with the idiot.

Glen Beaton is a great writer, but it undermines the power of the decision to focus on the female v female aspect ("catfight"). FIVE other justices signed onto Barrett's opinion -- there were no caviling concurrences to the court's opinion to avoid her brutal statement about Jackson. This is an unprecedented rebuke by the court of unprofessionalism and lack of learning on the part of a fellow judge. And, of course, a dramatic revelation of the consequences of DEI appointments, in this case an appointment to one of the most important positions in our government.

I don't know what degree of Constitutional legal expertise the author possesses. But the Fourteenth Amendment doesn't "seem ' to suggest anything close to a universal birthright citizenship. All literature from the time of it's passing including statements and speeches of it's sponsors, point to a single purpose. Giving emancipated Negro (that's what they called them at the time) slaves relief from ambiguity into US citizenship. That is all. What followed id deliberate misinterpretation by left wing justices intent on doing the Democrats' bidding. THIS is the inequity that the SCOTUS must correct in October. All indications are it will be another 6-3.

Jackson would fit better on "the View" than on the SCOTUS. The women there think their opinion carries more weight than the law. Coney Barrett wrapped her opinion thoroughly in the law, as it should be, and then pointed out that Jackson's opinion was ONLY that, an opinion. Thankfully, we have a court that no longer works with personal opinion but instead turns to the law, as written, and the precedent surrounding it. The only reason to set the law aside would be by finding a flaw in the legal reasoning that upholds the law or the way it is enforced. That can happen but is rare and you still need to supply a tightly reasoned argument as to why a change should be made. Jackson appealed to no legal reasoning whatsoever, an embarrassment that ACB pointed out. Also, since the Great Waffler, Roberts, signed on to the majority opinion, Jackson has no support for her position. Her angst was an embarrassment to the court and that's another reason that she is in trouble. Roberts likes a well mannered court. Coney Barrett stuck to a legal slice and dice of Jackson in her rebuttal of Jackson's opinion but Jackson attacked her fellow judges with personal insults. I suspect that Jackson's remaining tenure on the court will not be pleasant,

Ok, ACB, so far so good on the comeback. As for you, Katanji, maybe excusing yourself from SCOTUS would make more sense at this point. Your understanding of rule of law and morality are different from ours. I get it. You were an affirmative action hour.

It looks like Robert’s realized it best a female justice would be the best to yield the hammer. Kegan recently said in an interview that district court judges shouldn’t be able to rule on national presidential issues however she voted with the minority. I suspect more out of support for Jackson.

CNN publishes a stolen, inaccurate report

CNN last week got their hands on a classified document stolen from the National Security Agency. That’s a felony punishable by ten years in prison, by the way. The stolen document guessed that the efforts by Israel and America to neutralize Iran’s nuclear weapon program had set back the program by only “a few months.” CNN and the rest of the media cabal could hardly contain their glee. They celebrated the failure of America and Israel. Hardly mentioned in CNN’s report was that the document itself noted that its conclusions were merely “preliminary” and were expressed with only “low confidence.”

In what is already being called “The 12-Day War,” the bad guys have surrendered. It took a bit longer than its namesake, The Six-Day War, but it was every bit as heroic. Israel beat an opponent that outnumbered it nine to one. An opponent that was on the verge of nuclear weapons to make good on its decades-old threat to obliterate Israel from the River to the Sea. An opponent that has fomented terrorism throughout the Mideast. An opponent that militarily, financially and logistically supported the horrible October 7 pogrom, a slaughter of unspeakable cruelty.

This war has been distinctly one-sided so far. It’s been all Israel and no Iran. But we won’t know for days or weeks how successful the Israeli Defense Forces were in their main objective of disabling Iran’s nuclear weapon program. Israel says it intends to pound Iran for two weeks. If that pounding entails anything like the strikes yesterday which involved about 200 aircraft, and if Iran’s air defenses don’t improve (in fact, they are apt to deteriorate even more from the bombings) then Iran could be crippled for decades. I’m all for it. But here are some known unknowns:

Elon Musk – a man I admire greatly but not unreservedly – used ketamine. It’s not just a rumor. He wrote about it in a series of posts on what was then Twitter. Ketamine is a manufactured drug that was originally designed as an anesthetic, and is still used for that purpose. However, it was noticed some years ago that in doses much lower than the anesthetic dose, it produces hallucinations. The effect is similar to that of other hallucinogenic drugs like LSD or naturally-occurring psilocybin (“magic mushrooms”). Ketamine, LSD, psilocybin and many other hallucinogens are thought not to be physically addictive

If you’re the media, you call it a “mostly peaceful protest.” Normal people might call it an “insurrection.” But “insurrection” is not quite right, either. “Insurrection” implies a violent revolt against the government by its own citizens, not violence by uninvited foreigners who refuse to leave. I suppose you could call it a riot, but when its foreigners claiming ownership of the land, it’s a bit more than that. So, the question remains: What do you call it when foreigners: illegally enter the country, refuse our requests that they leave, assert ownership over the land, attack our people, places and government, under the colors of their foreign flag while burning the American flag,

President Trump enjoys campaigning. The first campaign was in 2016 when he criticized the ill-advised deal that Obama had struck with Iran the year before. Under that deal, Iran promised not to develop nukes – but only for a few years. Moreover, the inspection requirements were toothless, and Iran began violating them immediately by continuing its nuke program. Trump rightly called that deal “a disaster” and “the worst deal ever” (which is saying quite a lot when it comes to deals made by Obama). After he was elected in 2016, Trump cancelled the deal. And Iran continued its nuke program.

At the outset, let me state my bona fides. I voted for Trump three times. I publicly supported his candidacy back when the media deemed him and his supporters like me stupid racists. That was back when “Trump is literally Hitler” was the meme of the moment amongst the kind of people who don’t know the meaning of Hitler and don’t know the meaning of “literally.” Which is to say, most of the current mainstream media. For the record, Trump is not Hitler, not literally or metaphorically, nor is he a fascist. Contrary to popular belief engendered by the lamestream media, the word “fascist” does not mean “Republican.”

Harvard deserves punishment. For years, they boasted in their published materials that they had a policy to favor certain ethnic groups. Accordingly, they favored a Native American with the improbable name of Elizabeth Warren to fill a law professor position. When called out for their discrimination, they said that – in violation of their stated policy – they had not favored her. Comically, it turned out Warren wasn’t Native American anyway. And so, in her case, Harvard failed at racial discrimination despite their best efforts. Usually, however, they’ve succeeded.

First, my sympathies for the Biden family. I’ve been there. Now, here’s my puzzlement. Prostate cancer is notoriously slow-growing. Although prostate cancer is the second-leading cause of cancer deaths among men (second to only lung cancer), that’s not because it’s so deadly, but because it’s so common. It’s a fact that more men die with prostate cancer than of it. Of those who die, the typical mechanism of death is by the cancer cells metastasizing to other organs and/or to the bones. It takes years for that to happen – typically something like 5-10 years even without treatment, and even longer with treatment.

His accompanying comment was: “Cool shell formation on my beach walk.” In case you were born yesterday, the number “86” is slang for terminating a person or thing. If a gangster talks about “86’ing” you, you’re toast. The number “47” of course corresponds to President Trump as the 47th President.

The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday handed down its ruling in the parental rights case of Mahmoud v. Taylor. In a 6-3 decision, SCOTUS decided that parents do have the right to opt their elementary school-aged (pre-K through 8th grade) children out of classroom instruction that may include materials on gender and sexuality. The three dissenters were Justices Elena Kagan, Sonia Sotomayor, and Ketanji Brown Jackson. Writing for the majority, Justice Samuel Alito states that the parents involved were likely to succeed in their claim that the school system, by not allowing the opt-out on LGBTQ-themed classroom activities, was an unconstitutional burden on their religious liberties.

As RedState reported, the Trump administration scored a major victory on Friday after the Supreme Court ruled that district court-level nationwide injunctions exceeded judicial authority. That will throw a wrench into the left-wing strategy of seeking universal relief in a select few left-wing jurisdictions across the country and hopefully return some actual balance to the separation of powers within the U.S. government. Of course, while the decision was a victory for common sense and for voters who would prefer judges not overstep their bounds to essentially operate as president, it was a defeat for Democrats who have relied on that abuse to remain in power even when they lose.
