Justice Jackson's Dissent in the Trans Athlete Case Is Absolutely Insane

Dmitri Bolt / Townhall Tipsheet 

Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson proved once again why she is unqualified to sit on the Supreme Court.

On Tuesday, the Supreme Court ruled in Little v. Hecox and West Virginia v. B.P.J., which were consolidated into a single ruling. The Court found that state laws prohibiting men from competing in women’s sports do not violate Title IX or the Equal Protection Clause.

However, despite declining during her confirmation hearings to define what constitutes a woman, Justice Jackson took up the issue in her dissent, arguing that Title IX could be interpreted to include individuals whose gender identity differs from their biological sex.

"The majority is wrong to suggest that the term 'sex' in Title IX 'cannot plausibly be interpreted to refer to anything other than biological sex.' Ante, at 10," Justice Jackson wrote. "Title IX makes room for individuals to live in the gender they choose; it cares not just about sex assigned at birth but also about individuals’ ability to match (or not) their gender presentation to their gender identity."

Here's How President Trump Responded to SCOTUS' Birthright Citizenship Decision

Caneron Arcand / Townhall Tipsheet

 

President Donald Trump is calling on Congress to pass legislation to narrow the scope of birthright citizenship after an unfavorable Supreme Court ruling for the administration on Tuesday.

“The Supreme Court upheld Birthright Citizenship, which is too bad for our Country, but we can easily make it up in Congress through Legislation, with the support of the President, that has now been determined during this process,” he said in a Truth Social post.

“No long and unwieldy Constitutional Amendment is necessary! Congress should start TODAY to work on ending expensive and unfair to our Country, Birthright Citizenship. They will have my Complete and Total Support!” he added.

The court ruled that birthright citizenship will remain in place as it currently stands, with Chief Justice John Roberts writing in the majority opinion that “the Framers of the Fourteenth Amendment extended that promise to ‘every free-born person in this land.’”

The case centered on an Executive Order from the start of the president’s second term, which argued that “the Fourteenth Amendment...Read more, see 'TRUTH' and X here.

Op-ed: 

On America's 250th Birthday 

By; Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor

This opinion piece is my opinion alone, and does not necessarily represent the views of blogspot.or google.com 

 

...But here please know that our beloved America will survive long after this our nation's 250th birthday, simply because America must survive...there are no other tangible options available. Why so...because if what was our “Founders and Framers” grand experiment...the experiment that was and thankfully remains the “United States of America”...if it were to fail it would, in my opinion, herald in and leave open the possible demise of the sum of Western civilization itself on both an economic and cultural level, thus in turn leaving a vacuum of power the world has never seen before.

And now with less than a week to go until our great nation is officially 250 years old, know that it is import that the collective sum of “We the People” celebrate her milestone birthday together...together in unity even if for some it's only to honor the official signing of the “Declaration of Independence” and nothing more. And for many others, let's put our political differences aside for at least this one day, because what has been and still is our trying to forge a “more perfect union” does remain an ongoing process. We must continue to learn from both our past struggles as well as our true and lasting achievements if we are to remain...as per the words of the great Ronald Reagan in his “Farewell Address” to the nation, “a magnet for all who must have freedom.” Read entire article here.

Thomas, Gorsuch target landmark ruling Trump says protects the 'fake news'

The conservative justices argued the 'actual malice' standard from New York Times v. Sullivan has no basis in the Constitution

Charles Creitz / Fox News  

Two of the Supreme Court's conservative justices criticized the majority’s decision not to take up attorney Alan Dershowitz’s defamation case against CNN, saying the high court missed an opportunity to revisit a controversial 1960s defamation precedent.

The dissent from the court’s conservative wing effectively called on the justices to revisit longstanding libel precedent, echoing President Donald Trump’s 2016 calls to loosen U.S. libel laws.

Dershowitz, who has represented famous figures like Trump, O.J. Simpson and Leona Helmsley, claimed CNN deceptively edited a snippet of his defense during Trump’s first impeachment trial about "quid pro quo[s]" to make it sound like he said the opposite of his fuller statements and used that clip to damage his reputation.

Justices Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch — appointees of Presidents George H.W. Bush and Trump, respectively — criticized their colleagues for relying on the "actual malice" standard in evaluating whether CNN defamed Dershowitz, arguing the standard is not rooted in the Constitution and instead was created in the Supreme Court's landmark 1964 decision in New York Times Co. v. Sullivan. Read more, and see videos here. 

The Amy Coney Barrett Problem Reared Its Ugly Head Again

Matt Vespa / Townhall Tipsheet 

 

In 2020, Justice Amy Coney Barrett was seen as a cultural victory for conservatives: she was young, conservative, Catholic, and the opposite of the late Ruth Bader Ginsburg, whose vacancy she was filling. It was viewed as a return to constitutionalism, or so we thought. Six years later, Barrett’s record has been mixed at best, although some have called it a total disaster. She's not alone: Chief Justice John Roberts also joined the liberal wing, though his record of disappointment is a bit longer than Barrett's. It's the first time Roberts and Barrett have joined the three stooges on the Left here:

The Watson v. RNC ruling was the latest example, where the Court ruled in a 5-4 decision that Mississippi’s law on mail-in ballots, which allows them to be received and counted up to five days after Election Day as long as they are postmarked on that day, does not violate federal standards on what constitutes Election Day. Challengers argued that these ballots must be received by Election Day; Coney joined the liberal wing on this issue (via SCOTUSBlog): Read more, and see Xs here.
