Ah, no.

Boo hoo that these justices are not enjoying their right to privacy.

No.

They are not private homes. They are the homes of public officials paid for out of public funds. Fuck around and find out.

Tough shit! The court hasn't overturned the freedom of assembly and speech....... Yet .

Oh really ?

Awwww can't take the heat....too bad.

Of course. Common sense. Although that’s running slim these days.

Peaceful protest IS still allowed by law right

Is now a bad time to ask MerrickGarland what federal laws protestors at Justices' homes are violating, tuanhdam?🤔 (Asking for Americans)

Uh....

Let them take it through the court system until it reaches their bench. Then the SCOTUS affected can recuse themselves In short 🖕🏼

Weird how they pick and choose which rights to protect or enforce.

USSC Rules for me, not for thee.

No

Hahaha

Sounds like the Supreme Court doesn't want to live with the consequences of its own irresponsible behavior.

SCOTUS decided the right to carry guns anywhere is absolute. But now wants to take away the right of assembly and free speech. Guess what, FirstAmendment is first because it is more important than any other amendment. Yep, that's the way it works and was intended.

Why do public officials need to be asked to enforce the enforcing of laws on the books ?

We the People! Of the people for the people and by the people. That don't work anymore? Inalienable rights! Ever heard of it? Some things are set in stone. Don't get life misconstrued

Did Amy ever have a miscarriage? Don't we have a right to know?

We the people ask the Supreme Court not to take away 50 years of rights first. Then we can talk…

Why is SCOTUS interfering in a state issue? What's good for the goose is good for the gander.

Supreme Court ruling casts cloud over U.S. leadership in global climate fightA Supreme Court ruling on Thursday limiting Washington's authority to reduce carbon output from power plants will hurt global efforts to fight climate change by slowing America's emissions cuts and undermining U.S. leadership efforts on the international stage, according to diplomats. How about this headline? Supreme Court Casts Cloud Over US. US 'leadership'... get the fuck outta here. The pollution from the US military alone is grotesque. The US doesn't lead in anything important or beneficial - and hasn't for a long time now. Why does the US have to lead? Oh yeah the whole EU thing is running smoothly! Go talk to the Germans.
