I would doubt it: they're giving trump till october to file an appeal, that's plenty of time for his gaggle of criminals to come up with yet another excuse and continue.

They want to make living unnecessarily difficult and stressful. It was never about money, it was about making you all suffer enough that you can't keep up with the fascist take over.

Since I haven't seen it yet, here's the link to the full Supreme Court opinion granting the Government a stay of the lower Court's order, allowing the roving ICE raids to continue in LA.

The words "temporary" and "promptly" are doing a lot of work in this opinion.

Also an FTC thing: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/sep/08/trump-supreme-court-federal-trade-commission

If nothing else, this demonstrates that we must expand the Supreme Court. The tangerine anus has stacked the deck and has been allowed to act lawlessly because he's "owed". We have to remove the ability for a single administration to stock the court with sycophants.

There you go, assuming we're ever going to have the chance.

I had a thought just now. Even though the composition of the Court hasn't changed since Trump's previous term, we've seen them go from striking down his actions to rubber-stamping them. Do you think it's because January 6 made them afraid of violent retaliation?

Not just rubber stamping them: rubber stamping with unsigned opinions. So they KNOW it's wrong, and are doing it anyway.

Which is exactly what I would expect someone to do if they were motivated by terror. Writing a lot of words to justify a monstrous decision they already know is wrong is pretty common for the right, after all, but why bother if you know the people who have you at gunpoint don't bother to read stuff and get all their news from TV pundits who'll just make up the details anyway.
