    Even #ClaytonBigsby's head would explode.

    #SCOTUS rebuffs #AlanDershowitz $300 million suit against #CNN

    The Supreme Court refused Monday to revive the attorney’s #defamation lawsuit against CNN over its coverage of remarks he made while defending #Trump during his 2020 #impeachment.

    Justices Neil #Gorsuch & #ClarenceThomas dissented from the majority decision, saying legal standards for public figures who claim defamation should be reconsidered.

  10. Lau argued that the officer overstepped their authority, & the decision wrongly allowed the #DHS under then-President Obama to swiftly begin #deportation proceedings after he pleaded guilty to selling counterfeit clothes in NJ.

    #SCOTUS disagreed. “Border officers did not have the burden to establish by clear and convincing evidence that Lau had committed a crime involving moral turpitude,” Justice #ClarenceThomas wrote in the opinion. [seriously? “moral turpitude”? it was clothes.]

  12. UK #LiberalDemocrats have shockingly underperformed in the rogues gallery. They have brilliant buffoons, with Ed-the-wetsuit Davey and his absurd predecessor Jo Swinson.

    But since Jeremy Thorpe's 1979 murder trial, #FibDems had no proper bad guy. Huhne was small fry. Smith outed only when dead. But now, after 47 years, #ClarenceThomas MP may fill that gap.

    Innocent until proven guilty, obviously. Not even charged yet. But maybe young Clarence will enter the gallery of #LibDem rogues.

  14. #AileenCannon followed #ClarenceThomas' ruling earlier that month in #Trump v. USA. She ruled a key piece of U.S. v #Nixon was non-binding; nevermind all the #SupremeCourt #precedent in appointing #SpecialCounsel! Boldface #partisan, just like #SCotUS...
    And #MerrickGarland ROLLED OVER & *observed norms*, did not ask for reassignment. What a crock these Dems are, fiddling while the GOP sets fire to the rule of law.

  15. AT&T & #Verizon lose #SupremeCourt case over fines for selling #location data

    AT&T & Verizon lost an attempt to overturn fines for selling users’ real-time location data without consent, as the Supreme Court ruled today that the FCC process for issuing financial penalties did not violate the right to a jury trial.

    AT&T convinced the US Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit to overturn its fine last year, while Verizon lost in the 2nd Circuit. The Supreme Court took up the case to resolve the circuit split and reversed the 5th Circuit decision in today's ruling, which was 8-1 with Justice #ClarenceThomas dissenting.

    #ATT & Verizon were fined a total of $104 million by the #FCC in 2024 for violations revealed in 2018. The carriers paid their fines and challenged them in circuit appeals courts, where judges’ panels ruled on the cases. Carriers claimed this system deprived them of the Seventh Amendment right to a jury trial.

  17. Justice Brett #Kavanaugh & Chief Justice #JohnRoberts broke from their #conservative colleagues in siding with Pitchford.

    Justice Neil M. #Gorsuch wrote a dissenting opinion, joined by Justices #ClarenceThomas, Samuel A. #Alito Jr. & #AmyConeyBarrett.
    
“Put simply, Mr. Pitchford’s account of a muzzled defense team is hard to square with the record. But even if it were a plausible account, that still would not be enough,” Gorsuch wrote.

  19. Justice #ClarenceThomas, writing for the majority, said those who use property “tainted by a past confiscation” are liable to “any United States national who owns a claim to that property.” Havana Docks, he wrote, only had to show that the cruise lines had used seized property to which the company owned a claim.
    Justice #ElenaKagan dissented, saying the docks had belonged to the Cuban government all along & that the company’s interest in the property expired before the cruise lines ever used it.

  21. If only we had stood up for Anita Hill!

    Clarence Thomas is the longest tenured Supreme Court Justice and maybe the most unpopular justice as well due to his constant threats on our freedom and democracy.

  23. ⬆️ @PaulWermer @farbel

    >> #TradDems fully embraced neoliberal myths re market, free trade, … crime… laid the foundation for 2008 crash… #Biden getting #ClarenceThomas onto #SCOTUS#insurance companies… role in #healthcare… voted D in every election … because #GOP was worse. But the tradDems created fertile ground for #MAGA and their … wealthy enablers.

    NOTHING that is currently happening in the #UnitedStates would be possible without the #complicity and #connivance of the #DemocraticParty

  25. If SCOTUS continues to take us back to before the time of human and civil rights, Justice Clarence Thomas may find himself in a cotton field by the end of next year.
