The provision would bar courts from enforcing contempt citations for violations of injunctions or temporary restraining orders unless a bond has been paid.
YUP. Guaranteed they will. They’ve warned these assclowns to stop fucking with the judiciary, and they’re now signalling they’ll be proactively ruling on things like this.
Idk Thomas has been saying some shit recently that makes it seem like he might be getting tired of Trump’s shit.
Would be hilarious if Trump and Co try to defang the Supreme Court and they just decide to strike down Executive Orders as broadly unconstitutional for anything beyond directing basic executive branch actions, because they are not laws.
Oh my bad, meant to say Roberts. Get the fuckers confused nowadays. Defending the fact that the Judiciary is an equal branch of government and the concept of basic checks and balances.
Genuinely serious. Jackson is Trump’s favorite President for a reason: he exposed that under a determined enough man with enough popular support behind him, neither Congress nor the SCOTUS can actually do anything about a President acting in contravention of a court order. If the SCOTUS says “this bill is unconstitutional”, will it stop anyone from actually acting like it’s in force?
he exposed that under a determined enough man with enough popular support behind him
Well good news, he’s not actually that popular. I’m baffled that he’s still got an aggregate 47% approval rating, but even faux news’ poll has him down to 44% and he was only above 50% in poling for less than a 2 weeks after he came into office.
And that’s all before the most recent news about the medicare/medicaid slashing. And ahead of the coming wave of layoffs due to the economy slowing down. The policies he’s trying to enact are going to (slowly) erode what support he still has as his base realizes just how fucked they are.

Thomas and Alito would vote to uphold it.

Uh-oh. The check must have bounced.
Trump keeps forgetting how bribes work. They love money. Not him. His father issues are both a feature and the bug.
Truly interested. Can you give me a little flavor of what was said by “justice” Thomas

It’s safe to assume that Thomas and Alito will just go along with any unconstitutional, fascist BS that Trump’s incels will dream up
Thomas and Robert’s names are easy to confuse. Just remember to ask your self “Which one is the Tom?” and you’ll get it.
ROTFL
Just keeps proving that you should never trust anyone with two first names.
Not even Adam Scott?
That’s the guy who does those funny little cubicle comics, right? I don’t see what he could possibly do wrong.
He’s probably ready to cash out and retire while Trump can still pick a replacement asshole.
This one might be 9-0. Can’t get a free bus or private jet flights if you’re not important.
You can’t just assert that. They’ll vote whatever way they’ve been paid to vote.
Not voting this down means it would be their last ever check. They’d be voting themselves into irrelevance. Greedy people aren’t likely to do that
So… They’ll vote to uphold it?
Look at the quality of character on the court. Compromised. Alcoholics. The kind of people you can get leverage on.
The issue is more: will it matter at all?
