"The judges also rejected the attempt to compare the Republican events to Black Lives Matter protests.
They said the governor’s endorsement of the protests and marches, nor his participation in them, is enough to “change the law” or to “change the text of the order.” The judges said the Republicans did not present enough proof that Pritzker and the state government actively allowed the Black Lives Matter protests favored by left-wing Democrats like Pritzker, while shutting down equivalent demonstrations from the other side of the political spectrum.
“Underenforcement claims are hard to win…,” the judges noted. “Although we do not rule out the possibility that someone might be able to prove this type of favoritism in the enforcement of an otherwise valid response to the COVID-19 pandemic, the record in this case falls short.”"
shows me that Amy Barrett has the brain of a rock. My vote would be HELL NO on Barrett. She could and should have declared the Pritzker was treating them unequally and ruled that he had to mandate the same restrictions and enforcement for both.
A federal appeals panel says Gov. JB Pritzker is free to limit Republican political gatherings in the name of fighting COVID-19, but also allowed under the law to give more leeway to religious gatherings and Black Lives Matter protests, if he chooses.
And the judges emphasized the governor also still has the authority under the Constitution and the law to impose public health restrictions on religious practices. They pointed to a decision the Seventh Circuit delivered earlier this year, which stated the court believes Pritzker and other governors have no obligation to exempt religious gatherings from COVID-19 prevention measures imposed on businesses and other organizations and assemblies.
Certainly doesn't sound good but I would need to have someone knowing the law to determine if this was unconstiutional or something to bring out the pitchforks.
I just want to see democrats cry about abortion vs. a woman with 7 kids lol
that alone will decide the election and grant Trump 2 more judges.She certainly will be better than RGB!
What matters is Trump wins.. and he will nominate her cause of abortion and her 7 children.
It will be a lot of fun in the Senate judicary and Harris attacking her lol
She might not make it if Democrats get really nasty.

Thanks for that - this part:

BLM is a political gathering. How do we get it through their thick liberal skulls.
They "conveniently" missed the part about the measures being unconstitutional in the first place.

b.s. Trump will 100% nominate a woman to win the election and have fun in the Senate judicary vs. Harris.
I guess Roberts is a woman too?
i said nothing about race but surely a black man would be funny too lol
Trump will make the right decision. Anything is better than RGB.. He will have 2 more picks if he does this one right for the election.
There aren't enough like Sowell or Thomas around to make that a viable option sadly. Ideally we would get another Scalia.
If we get 1-2 more Senators Trump will select 2 hardcore SCOTUS next term! There must be someone not compromised and based..
This one now will be all about winning this election.
why do we have to compromise?
huh? That's being smart not compromising.
Agree with this. Now is not the time to get soft.
Excellent. About time we got truth about her on here.
Liberal hack... No thanks!
Horrible track record with 2A too
totally in favor of having a debate on this person
I hate the rush to nominate just because she is young and pretty.
Give me someone with a Tucker Carlson ideology. Immigration views are most important.
Why not just nominate Tucker?
We would lose his voice but gain his vote. When you cant replicate his voice but you can his vote
thank you! I don't want this bitch at all
What matters is Trump wins.. and he will nominate her cause of abortion and her 7 children.
