Inside an incredibly controversial Colorado case before the U.S. Supreme Court today.

, acknowledged that the outcome was"certainly disappointing from the perspective that Charlie and David did not prevail. But it's a narrow, limited opinion just on the facts of the case. It was largely based on statements made by some members of the Colorado Civil Rights Commission" — which threw its support behind Craig and Mullins in 2014 —"and not on any inappropriate conduct by Charlie and David.

That's not the way the U.S. District Court saw it, however. The defendants in the case, including Colorado Civil Rights Commission head Aubrey Elenis and its other members, as well as Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser, were granted summary judgment in September 2019, largely because the case was hypothetical: Smith filed suit before posting any statement, and no state body had punished her.

Supreme Court weighs increasing state lawmakers’ power during electionsThe court is set to hear arguments where Republican efforts to draw congressional districts heavily in their favor were blocked by a Democratic majority on the North Carolina Supreme Court. State legislators already have plenary power over election laws and the electoral college. This is delighted to them in the US Constitution. You mean they weigh ending democracy. Who will be making the arguments? Lawyers and AGs funded by Leonard Leo. Who will be ruling? 6 Justices hand picked by Leonard Leo. Sure they do. Because the SC is illegitimate. Bought and paid for by Conservatives.
