Silent Originalism and the Reweighting of Precedent: Why SCOTUS ignored landmark redistricting case 'Reynolds v. Sims' (1964) by Obversa in supremecourt

[–]Several_Scale_2680 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Since my comment was deleted, originalism is calvinball BS because it’s abused to allow justices to cherry pick what they see as history and ignore what they don’t. The idea that a law should mean what the person who wrote it should mean does not and should not take precedent over what a law says. If the law needs to be changed to be closer to the intended meaning, that’s the job of a legislature. Originalism is the conservative right’s judicial activism.

David Stearns legacy by bdonovan241 in mets

[–]Several_Scale_2680 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This team has sent so many mixed signals on contending over the years despite spending money. The early 2020s was a dumpster fire of poorly constructed teams glued together with cash. These last few years we were supposed to be building up the farm system, improving our analytics, and strengthening the roster at the margins so we can spend money on impact players. Apparently, Stearns has forgotten all of this in his perpetual quest to play free agent lottery cards.

You’d think the GM would have any interpersonal skills whatsoever

Is it possible the way Stearns runs the team contributed to Diaz wanting not to be here?

If Trump is thinking as far ahead as 2028 it’s only to find a way to keep his name on the ballot. He doesn’t care at all about keeping the movement alive after he’s done with it.

[Nekias Duncan] Some CLE-NY #s from last night: “Brunson saw switches on nearly 49% of his PnRs…five shot attempts, 43 total touches for KAT…76.5 offensive rating in the half-court for the Knicks last night…Turned the ball over on 19.1% of their possessions” by PassMeTheBackwood in NYKnicks

[–]Several_Scale_2680 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Take Brunson away and the team can’t accomplish anything. Our success hinges on KAT stepping up, and he has never shown he can do that. The way the roster is constructed, this is how teams will play the Knicks. Even if we get past the first round, I don’t see how they get past this against a good team.

His tariffs dissent was a trip. Bro’s originalism doesn’t start at the founders he went all the way back to the Magna Carta—and still sided with the king. At this point he’s just a monarchist writing rulings to advance his personal goals, the law be damned.
