The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

"The government has argued that the States don't have standing, because they aren't being affected by the Executive Order. In the majority's telling, the EO does not require the States to do anything, nor does it require them to refrain from doing anything. The EO has no legal effect on the States or their rights or any activities they will do (or not do) in preparation for the upcoming election, and therefore does not present a justiciable case or controversy." - Albaby

This is just the SCOTUS doing the usual of ignoring commonsense English it finds inconvenient.

The EO requires the states to deliver voter information to the federal government and to stop delivering mail in ballots of those states that refuse. I bet if the next Democratic administration refuses to deliver any mail to states that refuse to pass restrictive gun laws, or states that refuse to pass climate laws, the SCOTUS will suddenly rule very differently.

This is just the SCOTUS being its usual partisan self.

I know you are trying to bend over backwards to be fair, but you really aren't. You are doing the Dope pretzel twist.
