The “graphic designer” and I use that term lightly. Preemptively filed a lawsuit against Colorado in 2016 and then the very next day she received this “request” and that’s all that she based it on?

That’s all any of this is based on? That’s absolutely insane. That means anyone could make up any scenario and with enough work get it seen by the Supreme Court.

Insane.

Only if you're a far right crazy, because the court loves to suck up to the insane. The court has basically lost all legitimate.

What I feel it does is get as much supreme court precedent in place while the right still have a stacked deck. Who knows how long it would take for this situation to happen organically?

But as we learned just over a year ago, decades of precedent mean nothing to the Supreme Court. Decisions made 50 years ago can be overturned just because.
