Certain CBP agents can exercise broad authority to make warrantless arrests and search vehicles up to 100 miles away from the border
https://upnorthlive.com/news/nation-world/cbp-can-make-warrantless-arres...
The Supreme Court just condemned a man to die despite strong evidence he’s innocent
The Court effectively overruled two of its previous decisions, and it is likely an innocent man will die as a result

I've been wary of the "100-mile rule" for a long time now ... ever since my cousin got detained and busted about 10 years ago for possession of a small amount of weed in either southern NM or AZ (can't remember which one) on route to an event he was working. It was an "immigration checkpoint" and they walked dogs around his rig and sent him to "secondary" whereby they found his stash and turned him over to the local Sheriff for legal proceedings.
I've kept this in mind all along. Most recently, it came into play in deciding which route to take on a road trip from CO to southern FL over winter break. I wanted to check out south Texas and the weather was also more conducive to camping, but opted to stay above the "100 mile" line.

I am registered Democrat in order to vote in primary elections. I do not provide financial support, i do not canvas, nor do i campaign for any politician. I primarily vote for democrats because they are preferable to the alternative. The lesser of two evils.
I don't give a fuck who you vote for in state and local elections, however, presidential elections are different because of the power to appoint judges
Arguing that both parties are the same is astonishingly ignorant.
Arguing that voting for the lesser of two evils is still voting for evil, is not only self righteous, it also increases the chances that the greater evil will prevail.
The above decisions illustrate the results of the greater evil prevailing.
It is absolutely your right to cast your vote as you want, but i will blame voters for their ignorance and their myopic self righteousness.

The Supreme Court Just Forced Maine to Fund Religious Education. It Won’t Stop There.
Chief Justice John Roberts’ opinion has the potential to dismantle secular public education in the United States
The upshot of Chief Justice John Roberts’ opinion for the court is that states have no compelling interest in providing public, secular education to children. Indeed, Roberts suggests that the very concept of secular schooling is a smokescreen for “discrimination against religion”—a pretext for unconstitutional animus toward pious Americans. His opinion reaches far beyond Maine. About 37 states have amendments to their constitutions that bar government funding of religious institutions, including schools. Carson essentially invalidates those laws while undermining the broader constitutional basis for the nation’s public school system.
Roberts reached this astonishing result by overruling broad swaths of precedent respecting states’ authority to separate church and state more strictly than the U.S. Constitution requires. The court previously upheld states’ interest in avoiding the “establishment” of religion by refusing to underwrite the indoctrination of students into a particular faith. No longer. Roberts condemned Maine’s efforts to guard against religious establishment as nothing more than “discrimination against religion”—an effort to “exclude some members of the community” from public benefits “because of their religious exercise.” He also overruled a line of cases that let the government withhold funding on the basis of religious use (like indoctrination) but not religious status (like affiliation with a church). That distinction, he wrote, “lacks a meaningful application not only in theory, but in practice as well,”

Louisiana governor signs abortion bills imposing criminal penalties on providers
There are no exceptions for abortions performed in cases of rape or incest
Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards signed two abortion bills into law Tuesday that ban most abortions in the state and criminalize providers who perform the procedure.
One of the bills strengthens a 2006 trigger law on the books in Louisiana that would go into effect if the Supreme Court overturns Roe v. Wade, which it appears poised to do this summer based on a leaked draft opinion from the court
Previously, abortion providers faced prison terms of one to five years and fines between $5,000 and $50,000. The new law increases these penalties to prison terms of one to 10 years and fines between $10,000 and $100,000.

New Yorkers now don't need to show special circumstances to get a permit to carry firearms outside the home:
https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf/20-843_7j80.pdf
>>>>no restrictions on where you can carry your guns.
Didn't go that far. The court stated that the ruling does not effect historic restrictions on carrying guns in schools and public buildings. The new standard for determining when a gun control regulation is valid is as follows:
"When the Second Amendment’s plain text covers an individual’s conduct, the Constitution presumptively protects that conduct. The government must then justify its regulation by demonstrating that it is consistent with the Nation’s historical tradition of firearm regulation. Only then may a court conclude that the individual’s conduct falls outside the Second Amendment’s “unqualified command.”
In determining that New York's restrictive prohibitions against carrying firearms outside the home was "not consistent with the Nation's historical tradition of firearm regulation," the court examined historic restrictions on carrying weapons in public going back to medieval England. The court noted that in medieval England, there were restrictions on going around carrying long lances but most everyone carried a dagger or knife.

it's not "no more" Miranda rights. It's - an individual doesn't have standing to sue a cop in their personal capacity in civil court for damages resulting from not having been mirandized.
I honestly don't see how this changes much in reality on the playing field.

^ march towards a Christo-Fascist state continues
That's the crust of Ras's objection, he stated this has nothing to do with Christ, completely ignoring all the God* talk coming from the fascists.
*Strawbud, I know your previously posted opinion on the capitalization on the word God, but consider this...
God Fearing Agnostic
At the airport, they asked, "Mr. Chandler, what is your final destination?"
I answered, "Well, heaven I hope."
******
And I do. Really. I am no atheist, my friend.
I am a God fearing Agnostic.
Though, I do think the world was a safer place
when religion was the opiate of the masses
instead of the amphetamine.
But don’t worry,
I’m not going to get all fundamentalist on you.
I don’t like fundamentalists of any kind – including atheists.
Them fundamentalist atheists, they done wanna capitalize the word God. I'm like, "Why not? Ya capitalize Huckleberry Finn don't ya?"
And then they wanna take "One Nation under God" out of the pledge of allegiance. I don't have a problem with the phrase, " One Nation under God."
What I have a problem with is…
...people pledging allegiance.
What does " One nation under God " mean anyway? What does that make Australia? Are they more under God than we are? Is Canada "One nation on top of God?" Or is God all around us? Perhaps we should be, "One nation in the center of God?"
Personally, I think we should be one nation getting over God.

What you need to know about the Supreme Court’s EPA case
In a major blow to averting catastrophic climate change, the high court gutted the EPA’s ability to regulate greenhouse gas emissions from power plants

This one just might seal our transformation to a Christofascist Theocracy...
How the Supreme Court could radically reshape elections for president and Congress
Depending on how broadly the Supreme Court rules in the North Carolina redistricting case, Amar says support for the theory by the court could affect the 2024 presidential election. States with Republican-controlled legislatures could see it as an invitation to set new election rules that take power away from voters when picking electors for the Electoral College or to make state lawmakers, not courts, the judges in disputes after the election

They rule next year on whether State Legislatures have the final say in all matters regarding elections in their states without any over site. That will mean State Legislatures will be able to decide who won all elections in their state. This will 100% lead to civil war.

This Supreme Court is a fucking joke. 1/3 of them don't even belong on a park bench. One belongs in a looney bin. Two are major white anti women macho white men elitists.

Rob Brezsny on Facebook:
Didn't vote in 2000, or decided that Earth-in-the-Balance Al Gore wasn't green enough?
Two Supreme Court justices picked by Bush.
Didn't vote in the 2010 or 2014 midterms? Threw the Senate to the Republicans so they could steal Scalia's seat.
Didn't vote in 2016, or just didn't like corporate Hillary and her emails?
Three more Supreme Court seats to the Republicans.
Now the Supreme Court is putting a Christian Fascist Theocracy in place and does what the coal industry wants.
We had many, many chances to stop this.
The evidence is overwhelming: Voting is actually a matter of life and death.
