Hooooraaaaayyyyy for basic human rights !!
A decision that a lot of us didn't see happening, only because the flump administration was so against giving the right to go to work to our LGBTQ population. So the right thing to do, plus anything that makes stump's stump spin I love.
Also yesterday our s-court rejected chump admins attempt to get rid of California's immigrant sanctuary law. Two huge victories on the same day.
Nice job court, I'm feeling a bit more optimistic in our future today

^ Darn legalities.
^ Darn inconvenient legalities.
The 7-2 decision was regarding the narrow question if whether the U.S. Forest Service has the authority to grant rights-of-way through lands crossed by the Appalachian Trail within national forests. That's all they voted on scratchy.
Other legal issues remain before construction of the pipeline could begin.

You're correct, but does it play itself out as such in reality? Gridlock in Congress is the rule, not the exception. Special interests have hijacked the process and $$ rules the day. Consequently, those unelected judges effectively have a power that is not enumerated or prescribed in the Constitution. I challenge anyone to find the words "judicial review" or reference to such a process in the Constitution.

The operative phrase "by implication".
In all the other cases before mentioned, the Supreme Court shall have appellate jurisdiction, both as to law and fact, with such exceptions, and under such regulations as the Congress shall make.
^ I find it interesting how the language of the section you referenced appears to reference what appears to be more of a strict calling of "balls and strikes", yet we've found ourselves over 230 years down the road from a completely different "5 mph era"'; whereby justices are being asked to interpret modern world applications under the context of relatively ancient Constitutional text and a body of evolving derivative case law.
Another interesting note: would some form of "Marbury v Madison" ever have come into existence if not for the midnight appointment of Marshall by John Adams?
My primary objection is in regard to how a Republic's sovereignty is derived through the Will of The People and primarily and most wholely transmitted via the Legislature, not the SCOTUS. I don't believe it's by accident SCOTUS is the last Article.

BREAKING: Today the Supreme
BREAKING: Today the Supreme Court ruled to uphold the Trump administration’s attempt to allow employers with religious objections to deny their employees health insurance coverage for birth control.
In her dissent, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg writes:
"Ready access to contraceptives and other preventive measures...both safeguards women’s health and enables women to chart their own life’s course."
Hang on, Ruthie!

I don't know if she supports m4a. She is not a legislator, how would her support help pass better laws? I think what matters is her work interpreting the existing laws about health care and the suits against them.
At this point, she is trying her best to have the court support women's and everyone's healthcare while ruling on the cases brought before the Court.
What's the lol for?
There are so many forces working against us, she is at least working for us.

well if we had m4a we wouldn't even be having this conversation.

Judicial activism, especially
Judicial activism, especially at the Supreme Court level, is a double-edged sword and it sucks. What sucks even more is that there are currently 2 activists on the Court, and they are both far right. Fuck Thomas and Kavanaugh.
I like my SCOTUS justices to base their rulings on interpretations of the Constitution, not their political views. If any justice is guaranteed to vote certain ways on certain issues, there's a problem.

Decision pending today on
Decision pending today on Dumpster Don's taxes and if/to what level SDNY and/or Congress get access. I am doubtful that his goes the way I'd prefer and think it should land but at least would like to see SDNY get the nod to proceed and prosecute accordingly. Even though Congress has broad subpoena powers which includes tax info (and we've seen how that gets ignored without immediate consequence) I suspect SC would side against that while citing "political" reasons and no reasonably valid need ... from this lobsided court.

Supreme Court Upholds Grand
Supreme Court Upholds Grand Jury Subpoena For Trump’s Tax Returns
https://www.huffpost.com/entry/supreme-court-trump-v-vance_n_5f06026bc5b...
The Supreme Court upheld a subpoena from Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance for President Donald Trump’s financial records held by Trump’s accounting firm.
In a 7-2 decision, Justice Roberts wrote that the Constitution does not prevent a grand jury from issuing a subpoena for the private records of the president of the United States as part of a criminal investigation into their activities as a private citizen.
“In our judicial system, ‘the public has a right to every man’s evidence,’” Roberts wrote. “Since the earliest days of the Republic, ‘every man’ has included the President of the United States.”
The decision means that Mazars USA LLP, Trump’s accounting firm, must comply with the subpoena issued by the grand jury that Vance’s office empaneled, and must hand over the president’s financial records, including his tax returns.
Vance issued the subpoenas as part of his continued investigation into whether the Trump Organization falsified documents concealing Trump’s involvement in hush-money payments to two women who allege they had sexual relationships with the married president. The investigation stems from Trump’s former fixer Michael Cohen’s admission that he broke campaign finance laws by making the hush-money payments.

Looks like the "2nd piece" (House subpoena) was basically denied.

The Supreme Court ruled
The Supreme Court ruled that President Trump can for now block the release of his financial records to Congress but that prosecutors in New York may see them, a stunning defeat for Mr. Trump but a decision that probably means the records will be shielded from public scrutiny until after the election, perhaps indefinitely.
The vote in both cases was 7 to 2. In both cases, the justices ruled 7 to 2. Trump nominees Neil M. Gorsuch and Brett M. Kavanaugh joining the majorities. Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel A. Alito Jr. dissented.

The 7-2 opinion in Trump v.
The 7-2 opinion in Trump v. Mazars USA, written by Chief Justice John Roberts, states that Congress has the power to subpoena the president’s financial records.
However, the Supreme Court sent the case back to lower courts to reassess the matter with a new and narrower interpretation of Congress’ power to subpoena the chief executive’s records.

Chief Justice John G. Roberts
Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr., writing for the majority, rejected Trump’s claim of immunity.
“We reaffirm that principle today and hold that the president is neither absolutely immune from state criminal subpoenas seeking his private papers nor entitled to a heightened standard of need.”
This is a legal defeat for Donald Trump, but a practical victory.

Huge win for tribal
Huge win for tribal sovereignty today in the case of Oklahoma v. McGrit. In a 5-4 decision, the Court held that most of eastern Oklahoma, which was given to five southeastern tribes who were forced out along the Trail of Tears, remained Indian country (at least for purposes of criminal jurisdiction) because the tribal boundaries were never officially disestablished by Congress, but were instead informally moved over the years by the state, which had no power to do so. We will see how this plays out for other aspects of tribal sovereignty in the lands subject to the decision, but it looks like Oklahoma just got a lot smaller and the five tribes got a lot bigger:
Writing for the majority, Justice Gorsuch wrote: "On the far end of the Trail of Tears was a promise. Forced to leave their ancestral lands in Georgia and Alabama, the Creek Nation received assurances that their new lands in the West would be secure forever. . . We hold the government to its word."
