  • Almost everything Trump has attempted to do, has to some extent, been blocked in the courts. Sometimes temporarily…other times completely. And the temporary blocks are all still active cases, that stand a good chance of getting permanently blocked in the future.

    The problem is, the media isn’t covering that enough. They like the drama…so, all they report in is the shit that gets clicks. And boring court details don’t attract a lot of interest. Especially considering that by the time anything is resolved, the news steam has long since moved on to other, more recent scandals.






  • For all the alarmists acting like this is going to pass…it won’t. This is part of the normal process that all new legislation goes through. Politicians propse a bill, which contains everything they can think to include…throwing it all at the wall, just to see what will stick. Then it gets torn to shreds during the debate session, by legal advocacy groups and human rights organizations, who know exactly what kinds of legal challenges they can see coming a mile away. Anything that’s garaunteed to get tossed out in court is discarded from the legislation.

    Why? Because there’s no point in passing legislation that can’t actually be legally enforced. Law enforcement has been trying to get these kinds of “tools” implemented for decades. And the courts have all said, all the way along…no. You need a warrant for that kind of intrusion. They need probable cause to look at these things. They need a reasonable justification beyond, “I want to look, just in case”. None of the shit in this bill is going to pass the legal smell test. Period.
