“On Tuesday, the full bench of the Federal Court released their judgment, explaining why they upheld Justice Besanko’s 2023 decision that #RobertsSmith was complicit in the murder of four unarmed prisoners, including the man with the prosthetic leg, while deployed in #Afghanistan between 2009 and 2012.
Federal Court #justices Nye Perram, Anna Katzmann and Geoffrey Kennett found the evidence was sufficiently cogent to conclude that Roberts-Smith was a war criminal who had #disgraced his country and the #SASR, including by having machine-gunned the unarmed prisoner with a prosthetic leg outside Whiskey 108.
The three senior judges said the latter finding was based on the compelling testimony of three of Roberts-Smith’s fellow SASR soldiers.
“The problem for [Roberts-Smith] is that, unlike most homicides, there were three eyewitnesses to this murder,” the three judges concluded.”
The chronicling of the adventures of Ben in bandit country Afghanistan continues.
Justice served for the extrajudicial killing of an unarmed, invalid farmer #AliJan at #Darwan. There are more.
I’ve yet to see any #ADF in the Officer class, Command line Officers who gave orders and approved missions hauled before a Judge and stripped of rank and privileges for their involvement.

Basic #Ethics Breaks #SupremeCourt Because Too Many #Justices Have Book Deals
#Total #Immunity Chief Justice John Roberts described the #ruleoflaw as #endangered and warned against “trashing the #justices." “The notion that rule of law governs is the basic proposition,” Roberts said during appearance at Georgetown Law. “Certainly as a matter of theory, but also as a matter of practice, we need to stop and reflect every now and then how rare that is, certainly rare throughout history, and rare in the world today.” #OpusDei has regrets, nah. #trump https://www.politico.com/news/2025/05/12/chief-justice-roberts-speech-georgetown-00343406
Is This the End of the Separation of Church and State?
“To a very sad degree, #SupremeCourt #justices and members of #Congress are already complicit in this experiment in #stateterror. They might find their way back to an #America in which their offices have meaning, but only with the help of we the people” open.substack.com/pub/snyder/p...

"The Court has lurched so far rightward that Barrett’s views are sometimes moderate in comparison, but that doesn’t mean she’s liberal or will consistently work to stop Trump’s worst excesses. It likely does mean, though, that she represents the best possibility for liberal outcomes at the Court."

In a rare show of unity, all nine justices of the U.S. Supreme Court appear likely to side with a heterosexual woman in a case of "reverse discrimination." “We’re in radical agreement today” Justice Neil Gorsuch said. Read more from @USAToday

#Corrupt #SupremeCourt #Justices #SamuelAlito and #ClarenceThomas Show #Contradictory #Stances This Term
In under a week, Justices Alito and Thomas have demonstrated how their #ideology and ties to their #benefactors shape their #legal #judgments—often in #hypocritical and #contradictory ways.

#Conservative #justices suggest the #science is too #hard—and that the #corrupt #SupremeCourt will let #RedStates #sidestep the #constitution with regard to #trans #people.

Court grants challenge to #FCC subsidies over nondelegation doctrine
The #justices on Friday created the prospect of another major ruling on the role of #administrative agencies and #Congress’s ability to delegate #power to those agencies.

#Wisconsin #HighCourt to hear #arguments on whether an 1849 #abortion #ban remains #valid.
#Abortionrights #advocates are optimistic, as #liberal #justices control the #court, with one openly supporting #abortionrights on the #campaign #trail. Monday's arguments are largely a #formality, with a #ruling expected in weeks.

Idea: Each presidential #term the #president shall be entitled to #appoint 1 person to the #SupremeCourt. No more, no less. If the number isn't some exact number? Oh well. (The #Constitution does not set any limit or minimum or even demand that the number be fixed; only #congressional laws do.)
End this gamesmanship with #justices #retiring based on what #president will replace them, and some presidents getting 3 appointments versus one or none.
#Republicans expect to #confirm even more #SupremeCourt #justices if #ConvictedFelon #DonaldTrump #wins.
#GOP #senators anticipate that in a second term, Trump would have at least one #SupremeCourt #vacancy to fill. #Democrats hope that #prospect will #motivate their #voters this fall.
