Interesting watching all the people scramble who have said for years this authority was an unquestionable slam dunk.

It’s more so because Trump judges have shown a disregard for precedent.

Of course. With that being said and the nature of rulings coming down from Trump / Federalist judges does it really matter how legally sound the argument is?

Depends on the subject matter. I don’t think this is necessarily something they’re that invested in. And the blow back from independents would be crazy. Cruz is an idiot.

Well they were right. Republicans have no reasonable grounds to sue

Thank you Biden!

Like most things wrong in America, there’s a straight line to Reagan.

It's incredible how routinely true this is.

Twitter beef like this seems just lame. He goes off on the guy and then basically admits he's right? You don't say that something else is a better legal foundation unless you're agreeing that there's some fundamental problem with the current legal foundation.

Ted Cruz has:

A law degree from Harvard
Clerkships with the US Court of Appeals and the Supreme Court
A brief period in private practice
Six years as Texas Solicitor General
10 years as a federal legislator

I have:

Never taken a law course or anything remotely resembling a law course in my entire life



Yet I heard that suggestion and immediately knew it was obvious idiocy, no legal merit whatsoever. How do people get through that much in life and still say such stupid things? Is he just performatively bullshytting?
