  1. I missed the last two innings for work and followed on my phone, never thinking we'd win that game. Crazy stupid game. Despite the Astros blowing it open early and leading for every inning but two, that game sucked for us watching at home. Felt like we were bleeding out, and not slowly. I'll take the W even if the moral loss tastes a bit sour.
  2. gonna lose this game because of Javier and Dusty
  3. Serious Tony Boselli 2002 vibes.
  4. Jon SIngleton is raking for Sugar Land. 8-for-20 with 2 doubles, 2 HR, 6 BB, 6 RBI and 7K in 6 games played.
  5. No coincidence that now they've gone full hood-off and wrecked all norms and wantonly disregard the power of precedent in law they are no longer screeching about "activist judges." They've completely dropped that one from their playbook.
  6. Instead of questioning the number of justices that currently sit on the Supreme Court and whether or not it's wise for Biden to meet this moment and wage a propaganda war on this unchecked billionaire-owned cabal of black robes, maybe we should start discussing the usefulness of judicial review?.... Just a thought.
  7. More from the Kagan dissent: In her view, the text of the HEROES Act makes clear that the plan is legal. "The statute provides the Secretary with broad authority to give emergency relief to student-loan borrowers, including by altering usual discharge rules. What the Secretary did fits comfortably within that delegation. But the Court forbids him to proceed. As in other cases, the rules of the game change when Congress enacts broad delegations allowing agencies to take substantial regulatory measures." Kagan accuses her colleagues in the majority of usurping the role of Congress and the executive branch in making policy. Congress authorized the plan, the Biden administration adopted it, and Biden "would have been accountable for its success or failure. But this Court today decides that some 40 million Americans will not receive the benefits the plan provides, because (so says the Court) that assistance is too significant."
  8. is that NYTimes pitchbot?
  9. As a general rule I don't typically wish death on individuals, but I can be persuaded to make an exception here.
  10. Currently reading this and today's decisions just fan my righteous fury
  11. https://prospect.org/justice/2023-06-19-student-loan-cancellation-supreme-court-mohela/
  12. This court wants a return to the Lochner era
  13. What a terrible writer.
  14. Under Colorado's logic," Gorsuch continues, "the government may compel anyone who speaks for pay on a given topic to accept all commissions on that same topic--no matter the underlying message--if the topic somehow implicates a customer's statutorily protected trait. . . . Taken seriously, that principle would allow the government to force all manner of artists, speechwriters, and others whose services involve speech to speak what they do not believe on pain of penalty."
  15. Biden absolutely must find his nuts and start preaching about checking the unchecked Supreme Court. what the everlivin fuck?
