The 5th circuit includes Louisiana, Texas, and Mississippi so they can go fuck themselves. You think I'll live by the opinion of some backwater states? Only a corrupt supreme court would uphold this ruling-ohhh fuckity fuck fuck!

so they can go fuck themselves.

They didn't need your permission. That's how they keep breaking records for lowest IQ. ;)

If they were any more inbred, they'd be a sandwich.

If y'all don't like it, encourage your friends in Texas to fucking vote. This kangaroo court gets to be the reliable Conservative rubber stamp it is, because they're appointed by whatever president is in power when vacancies become available.

Biden was able to appoint two, and Obama appointed two, Clinton one. Bush Jr. appointed four, Reagan appointed two, and Trump appointed fucking six, which explains why they constantly capitulate to big business.

Voting matters. There is so much at stake.

I mean yes, please vote people.

However the supreme court is stacked because Bitch McConnell is a piece of shit.

FUN FACT: Five Justices of the Supreme Court were appointed by presidents who were inaugurated despite losing the popular vote! That's a full majority! And purely by coincidence, all of them are Republicans! :D

...alright, obviously it's not fun. I can't believe the audacity some people have to act surprised and offended when people say the Court is illegitimate.

You do realize that federal judges crib notes from judges in other jurisdictions, right? As in, while this ruling probably doesn't directly effect you, if there's a similar case in your jurisdiction, they'll look at this decision and probably side with it if the facts of the case are similar enough.
