How's this for "checks and balances":
(from the 2012 Supreme Court decision upholding ObamaCare)

Our permissive reading of [the federal government's enumerated] powers is explained in part by a general reticence to invalidate the acts of the Nation’s elected leaders. ... It is not our job to protect the people from the consequences of their political choices.

If you aren't afraid after reading that, you're a fool.

WELL THEN, looks like Politico and WSJ have the SAME sentiment.....SCOTUS says Congress is the
"decider"....because SCOTUS is NOT politically based.

Using your "logic", Brown v. Topeka Bd of Education was wrongly decided.

was quite clear on the case.

Other than Arkansas, where the democrat governor, Faubus, tried to stop integration of the schools. what other states did not comply? In the case of Arkansas, President Eisenhower sent in the 101st Airborne to make sure that the Arkansas obeyed the ruling of the Supreme Court.

NOT my view point..Judge Roberts...

what does the above mean?

With all the angst over the election, we missed this date:


The United Nations designated 19 November as World Toilet Day to raise awareness that 4.2 billion people live without access to safe sanitation, including in Indonesia.

It appears that the Denver mayor wants to emulate Newsom, gov of CA, Pritzker, gov of IL and far from least Cuomo, gov of NY., in thumbing their noses at the proles.

After warnings to avoid travel, Denver Mayor Hancock flies to visit family for Thanksgiving
By Allison Sylte and Marshall Zelinger 9News Nov 25, 2020 Updated 10 min ago

"
In an email to city staff on Nov. 18, Hancock wrote, “as the holidays approach, we all long to be with our families with person, but with the continued rise in cases, I’m urging you to refrain from travel this Thanksgiving holiday. For my family that means cancelling our traditional gathering of our extended family.”

In the email, Hancock also said anyone who travels out of state should quarantine for 14 days and that employees who can’t work from home will need to use their paid time off for the leave."

Unborn Babies Disguise Selves As Death Row Inmates So Liberals Will Defend Their Right To Live
December 11th, 2020
U.S.—According to ultrasound technicians around the country, unborn babies are disguising themselves as death row inmates so that liberals will defend their right to live.


The babies got the idea from how major media networks reliably frame their coverage of state executions of death row inmates, no matter the details of their depraved and demonic crimes they committed while they were alive and free.

“If these people can get sympathy, surely we can,” signed one unborn fetus to its ultrasound technician while clad in gang attire and wielding a sharp knife. “Maybe we just weren’t doing enough heinous crimes against society to get the left’s attention.”
