#Alito invoked several hypotheticals of what he called “progressive” #schools setting their own #curriculum, including being “an #LGBTQ+ friendly school” w/ #books that present #SameSex couples as “a perfectly legitimate lifestyle,” [#bigot] or teaching #history from the standpoint of #Project1619, which sought to reframe how the #UnitedStates talks about #slavery.

Amy Klobuchar calls on Supreme Court to hold Trump officials in contempt

Senator Klobuchar warns of US getting ‘closer to a constitutional crisis’
-- as Samuel Alito’s dissent signals deference to Trump

On Sunday Minnesota senator #Amy #Klobuchar warned that the US is “getting closer and closer to a constitutional crisis”, but the courts, growing Republican disquiet at Trump administration policies, and public protest were holding it off.

“I believe as long as these courts hold,
and the constituents hold,
and the congress starts standing up,
our democracy will hold,”

Klobuchar told CNN’s State of the Union, adding
💥“but Donald Trump is trying to pull us down into the sewer of a crisis.”

Klobuchar said the US supreme court should 👉hold Trump administration officials in contempt if they continue to ignore a court order to facilitate the return of Kilmar Ábrego García from El Salvador,
the Maryland resident the government admitted in court it had deported by mistake.

Klobuchar said the court could appoint a 👉special prosecutor, independent of Trump’s Department of Justice,
to uphold the rule of law and charge any officials who are responsible for Ábrego García’s deportation,
or have refused to facilitate his return.

The senator’s comments came hours after supreme court released justice #Samuel #Alito’s #dissenting #opinion on the court’s decision to block the Trump administration from deporting more Venezuelans held in north Texas’s Bluebonnet detention center .

In his dissent, Alito criticized the decision of the seven-member majority,
saying the court had acted “literally in the middle of the night” and without sufficient explanation.

The “unprecedented” relief was “hastily and prematurely granted”, Alito added.

Alito, whose dissent was joined by fellow conservative justice #Clarence #Thomas, said there was “dubious factual support” for granting the request in an emergency appeal from the American Civil Liberties Union
to block deportations of accused gang members that the administration contends are legal under the Alien Enemies Act of 1798.

The majority did not provide a detailed explanation for the order released early on Saturday,
only that the administration should not to remove Venezuelans held in the “until further order of this court”.

The court has said previously that deportations under the 1798 law can only proceed if those scheduled to be removed are offered a chance to argue their case in court and were given “a reasonable time” to contest their pending removals.

1/ What alarms me most in #alito’s dissent are suggestions - to #trump & courts - of how to evade rule of law. It casts doubt on the scope of the #scotus order. It offers examples of claims the gov can make - & courts should just accept - to avoid future orders. supremecourt.gov/opinions/24pd

It's not either "necessary or appropriate" for you to remain in power for much longer, Justice #Alito. Step down, you black-robed bribe taker and hypocrite.

Justice #Alito released on Saturday shortly before midnight his dissent to #SCOTUS’ decision blocking #deportations. He was joined by Justice Clarence Thomas. In his 5 dissent Alito wrote that in his view, the court’s decision to intervene overnight was not “necessary or appropriate.”

My left hand nails are painted purple.Me, holding up the other side against the painted brick wall outside Port Authority. There are white rectangles and squares, each with words: “Thomas & Alito have got to go”

#SCOTUS moved with urgency late last night, intervening in the Alien Enemies Act cases and blocking #deportations. It appears that a majority on the court finally figured out they were being "played" by the govt who seems to have been moving detainees around to avoid court orders and giving the detainees less than full access to due process.

#Thomas and #Alito, the leading sociopaths on the court, dissented ... of course.

#SCOTUS, for Now, Blocks #Deportations of #Venezuelan Immigrants

Justices #ClarenceThomas & Samuel #Alito dissented.

Lawyers for the #ACLU, saying that a new group of Venezuelan men had been “loaded on to buses, presumably headed to the airport,” filed an emergency petition to SCOTUS, asking the justices to step in & issue an immediate pause on any deportations under a wartime powers #law the #Trump admin has been using to try to expel them.

The second episode of Dark Money Games by Alex Gibney on HBO features journalist Jane Mayer discussing the conservative Christian agents Leonard Leo and his puppet Supreme Court justices overturning human rights, rule of law and US constitutional democracy. Some of this is based on the recent Court reporting by ProPublica. Ideal for your high school civics class.

Borowitz Report Clarence Thomas Fears Volatile Stock Market Could Force Billionaire Hosts to Sell Their Yachts
Satire

WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)—In a rare public statement, Clarence Thomas warned on Thursday that the whipsawing stock market could force billionaires who have hosted him and Samuel Alito on luxury cruises to sell their yachts.

“I usually bite my tongue, but the threat to these cruises impels me to speak out,” he said. “There’s a human cost here the public needs to know about.”

Thomas reported that Alito’s wife is “in a state of panic” about losing her superyacht vacations, adding, “She’s been flying their flag upside down all week.”

As for his own wife, Thomas said, “Ginni is mad as hell, and you don’t want to make Ginni mad. She’s already tried to overthrow one government.”

To re-write the #UnitedStatesConstitution in full service to Leo's #UnitaryExecutive pipedream

So far #Roberts is performing according to script

#SCOTUS ruled that under #civil #RICO #law a plaintiff may seek treble damages for business or property loss even if the loss resulted from #PersonalInjury. It’s a win for truck driver Douglas Horn who was fired when he failed a drug test after taking a tincture that said it only contained #CBD.

Opinion from #AmyConeyBarrett, 5-4, in #MedicalMarijuana, Inc v Horn. #ClarenceThomas filed a dissent. Brett #Kavanaugh filed a dissent, joined by #JohnRoberts, & Samuel #Alito.

@MNSpy

In #world history accounts, the conservative (traitorous) members of the current SCOTUS will go down as despicable, self-serving monsters. The US probably will not have future accounts of history because it will be a #dystopian #trashheap forever. Worldwide, though, the names, #roberts #Alito and #Thomas will be synonymous with ignorance, selfishness and cowardice.
