The new Supreme Court took up a moot case about whether or not a local official could close down places of worship in order to stop the spread of a deadly disease so Coney-Barrett could ensure that all the right wing Christians would have a nice day. Needless to say, they ruled that the Constitution forbids the government saving the lives of its citizens if it means that people can’t defy all logic and reason and gather in churches.
The wingnut Justices seemed to enjoy it. Here’s Neil Gorsuch demonstrating a lame 7th grade level sarcasm:
I don’t know about you, but I rarely spend a couple of hours sitting closely among strangers, singing and speaking in a closed building with little ventilation at a bike shop or liquor store. But maybe that’s a problem. And if it is, one might expect that Justice Gorsuch would recommend closing all of those businesses rather than being a snotty little bitch.
Roberts sided with the liberals as he did in the earlier case decided 5 months ago. And he even admonished the conservative justices for their tone… I guess he really is going to be the Anthony Kennedy of this court. Unfortunately, the crazed wingnuts have 5 votes.
