Meanwhile in the US the NSA just hoovering up every bit of data ever.

“u good?”

My FBI agent after seeing that I read this post.

They’ve made some good calls. See my other comment.

And those are all very recent.

I’m sorry for giving you false hope.

The US Court has made quite a few unexpected rulings, or refused to hear cases you might have expected them to overturn.

Most damaging court of my lifetime, but they’re not automatically set to “evil”.

Trans kids and bathrooms. Lower court ruling stands.

Declined to hear a case about whether it is legal to exclude potential jurors based on their religion. Lower court ruling stands.

Turned down a major property rights challenge to rent-control laws in New York City and elsewhere that give tenants a right to stay for many years in apartments at below-market rates.

Supreme Court allows federal agents to cut razor wire Texas installed on US-Mexico border

Supreme Court announced Tuesday it won’t hear a case challenging Washington’s capital gains tax.

Supreme Court rejects appeal from Trump-allied lawyers over 2020 election lawsuit in Michigan

Supreme Court rejects appeal from 3 GOP House members over $500 mask fines.

Those cases are only from a month or so of collecting. I don’t have faith in the Court, but neither do I think they’ll fuck everything up.

And if you wade through all that, it seems clear Thomas is the worst of the bunch. Utterly for sale.
