#SCOTUS ruled that under #civil #RICO #law a plaintiff may seek treble damages for business or property loss even if the loss resulted from #PersonalInjury. It’s a win for truck driver Douglas Horn who was fired when he failed a drug test after taking a tincture that said it only contained #CBD.

Opinion from #AmyConeyBarrett, 5-4, in #MedicalMarijuana, Inc v Horn. #ClarenceThomas filed a dissent. Brett #Kavanaugh filed a dissent, joined by #JohnRoberts, & Samuel #Alito.

BREAKING: Trump dealt CONSEQUENTIAL COURT LOSS
Brian Tyler Cohen

youtube.com/watch?v=6EX0LPt_B4

The Brian Tyler Cohen headline is correct. This court decision is really consequential. Trump's dumb and ignorant executive order is being found to be blatantly unconstitutional. Even the greatest simpleton ought to be able to see it but we're just not sure about Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas. Time will tell. It is going well so far.

In other words, Justices Samuel #Alito, #ClarenceThomas, #NeilGorsuch & #BrettKavanaugh don’t believe in the power of the #judiciary, their own power, or the #SeparationOfPowers.

They believe that the president is in fact above the #law — as long as that president is #Trump.

Here is the order, Alito’s self sabotaging dissent starts on page 2.

Judge Ali should consider "the feasibility of any compliance deadlines," #SCOTUS added.

4 conservative justices dissented from the denial of the application, w/Justice #Alito writing that Ali did not have "unchecked power to compel the government to pay out ... 2 billion taxpayer dollars."

"I am stunned," Alito added.

The other dissenters were Justices #ClarenceThomas, #NeilGorsuch & #BrettKavanaugh.

#SupremeCourt Denies #DonaldTrump Request to Stop His #Sentencing. He is scheduled to b sentenced in #NewYork on Friday morning after being convicted of 34 #felonies. #presidency used to #subvert #justice for #criminal actions. Thank Judge #merchan for completing the work he is obligated to do as judge #AileenCannon facilitates #trump #corruption #subversion of #democracy. Justices #ClarenceThomas, #SamuelAlito #NeilGorsuch #BrettKavanagh would have granted Trump’s request to block.

I'm watching the TV series The Equalizer, starring Queen Latifah.
Season 1 she "Equalized" a political consultant who raped women & got them to sign NDAs

A rich guy who hid that his 'self driving' software didn't work & people died

A tech bro whose platform was used by radicalized people & their RW racist anti-immigrant views to plan bombings

A corrupt judge

I know it's escapist fiction, but I crave it seeing how #Trump #Musk & #ClarenceThomas get away with their crimes & nobody stops them
