She looked at least 15 years older than that picture last night. Good lighting is not her friend.

I’m not sure anyone here has read the details of this decision or the specific facts and circumstances of the case apart from the headline that some money is being sent through USAID. They just see split decision and label her a globalist. Retards.
Welcome to the Idiocracy

Been compromised on major votes since his rumors of a visit to Epstein Island.

It’s already been pointed out that there aren’t a lot of conservatives and/or America First types in the legal profession - similar to journalism but not to the same extent as journalism. Seems to me that finding one you are sure won’t go high and right is easier said than done, but not impossible.

It was obvious when she was being considered. Or should have been to anyone with any sense. Trump owns this frick up.
This ENTIRE board was gargling each others semen from the moment she was nominated to the moment she was sworn in.
Is everyone here on this board also ignorant? Give me a break.
Look I don’t like the ruling just as much as everyone else here doesn’t like it but was this money appropriated by congress? If yes, then she and the left have a legitimate point. I’m not smart enough to determine if the president can stop the funds from being spent but it seems if they were appropriated by congress, then the president shouldn’t be able to stop it. He can damn sure cut it off from now on though.
Even the most retarded Supreme Court justice is light years smarter than the smartest guy on this board.

I've got a crush on Amy Coney Barrett
No wonder the left hates Amy Coney Barrett
ACB is a "legal encyclopedia", she's "a slam dunk"
Now this board hates her and says she's a big problem. A little over four years ago we were calling her a legal encyclopedia, saying she would stick to the law and the constitution no matter what. Now she's a problem since she did just that.

Your argument is a false dichotomy.
Stats show a different story:
Democrat to Republican Flips: 4 (1894, 1946, 1994, 2010)
Republican to Democrat Flips: 7 (1874, 1882, 1910, 1930, 1954, 2006, 2018)
Total Flips: 11

Imagine saving two children from almost certainly a life of poverty and despair and somehow that makes you a bad person…
Actors and actresses do the same thing all the time and get criticized it for it, because many times it's either for the publicity or the praise they get from others for "saving children." Their motivation negates it being a selfless and benevolent act, because it has nothing to do with the actual children and everything to do with their own image.
I am acquainted with a few white southern women who have this foreign adoption obsession. They all attend a megachurch, post their entire lives on social media and ooze disingenuousness. The cynic in me thinks many of these women groom these kids as some sort of perverse and repressed sexual fantasy.

How did this thread devolve into adoption services?

They are trying to derail the thread like usual. Tom Fitton calls it a Judicial Coup

The combination of the race of the children and the NPC talking points about "Hatians" from last year. Both trigger certain types within MAGA.
They're the people lots of MAGA types pretend don't exist, but still do (in admittedly small numbers, but in numbers that appear to be growing, sadly)

Why are people melting so hard over the decision this morning?
As I understand it, the payments are for “work already completed.”
People are being very dramatic.

I would be more curious to know how often she votes the same as Roberts. It seems like she regularly votes the same as Roberts like she is his shadow. Maybe I am just imagining that.

calm down. This is only about paying for already completed work.
X post explaining details
The ruling applies narrowly to already-completed work and does not interfere with the administration’s ability to freeze or redirect future aid, provided it follows proper legal channels. The administration retains the power to reshape USAID, impose stricter accountability measures, and redefine America’s role in global development
While the ruling ensures contractors get paid, it does not absolve USAID or its partners from scrutiny. The executive branch now has an opportunity, if not an obligation, to investigate where those funds have gone and whether they were used appropriately. The foreign aid industry has long been a breeding ground for inefficiency, waste, and outright corruption, with NGOs treating U.S. taxpayer dollars as a slush fund for political pet projects and bloated administrative costs. If the administration is serious about reforming foreign aid, it should comply with the ruling, release the funds, and immediately launch a comprehensive audit into how those billions have been spent. Investigations by
@DOGE
, the
@TheJusticeDept
, and other agencies will uncover fraudulent claims, mismanagement, and outright theft, leading to prosecutions and the recovery of misused funds. The executive branch can follow the letter of the law while still advancing its broader policy of ensuring that U.S. foreign assistance is not a blank check for incompetence and corruption.
