 Is there a simple explanation of what's different between the Wisconsin and Texas voter ID decisions?

 Since the right wing of the court has such a chubby for "original intent," doesn't that resolve the ambiguity since everyone who wrote the ACA is still around?

 If a Clinton presidency ends up nominating somebody other than Garland, is there some plum position they can offer him to make up for jerking him around?

Don't see a big problem with this. CFPB will be more politicized but that may not always be a bad thing.

At least Kagan got to have a little fun

 It was already slim even with a D+3 or D+4.

It's still bonkers to me that Ginni Thomas wanted to overturn the election.

 SEALs are all chuds. Biden could probably cobble together a team from the CIA though.

So stung when the GWB administration did nothing and then the effete black liberal successor was like "hey guys I have something for you to do in Abbottabad"

Must have been genuinely frustrating to wait so long before getting to cash in on a book deal.

The GWB era feels like a lifetime ago, I lived through this poo poo but I forgot how crazy it was.

After the failure to capture Osama bin Laden at Tora Bora, the Bush administration initially denied any evidence of his presence in the battle. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld argued that the threat posed by Islamist extremism went beyond one individual, and there was no certainty about bin Laden's presence. Vice President Dick Cheney avoided addressing the matter entirely, choosing to never mention or talk about the battle's occurrence.

Tora Bora has been variously described by the Western media as an impregnable cave fortress housing 2000 men complete with a hospital, a hydroelectric power plant, offices, a hotel, arms and ammunition stores, roads large enough to drive a tank into, and elaborate tunnel and ventilation systems. Both the British and American press has published elaborate plans of the base. When presented with such plans in an NBC interview on Meet the Press, Donald Rumsfeld, the US Secretary of Defense, said, "This is serious business, there's not one of those, there are many of those".

When Tora Bora was eventually captured by the U.S., British and Afghan troops, no traces of the supposed 'fortress' were found despite painstaking searches in the surrounding areas. Tora Bora turned out to be a system of small natural caves housing, at most, 200 fighters. While arms and ammunition stores were found, and while Soviet tanks had been driven into some of the caves, there were no traces of the advanced facilities claimed to exist.

 This...is quite a take from Harvard Law.

quote:

Jack Goldsmith, a law professor at Harvard, said the justices were in an impossible spot.

“Everyone on the court is acting in good faith and thinks they are being nonpolitical and doing the right thing,” he said. “The court far more than any federal institution has avoided the Trump and Trump-reaction craziness. But these cases involving or implicating Trump, which the court is right to consider, invariably have a huge impact on presidential politics, no matter what or how the court decides.”
