It's a tough line I imagine to combat the intentionally provocative posts that are meant to demoralize and the earnest users who post their legitimate concerns. But I agree that this forum tends to go too hard on those who criticize.
Also, he is petitioning to appear before SCOTUS pro se. So in the extremely unlikely event SCOTUS actually grants cert, he will not have an attorney. Only him. And he will doubtless be spewing pseudo-legal jibberish that is straight from a sovereign citizen handbook. The man is going to make us look like morons if he gets a platform
It was dismissed earlier this year, appealed, and then the appeals court affirmed the dismissal. So Brunson lost. He has petitioned SCOTUS for review, but SCOTUS has not granted cert (agreed to hear the case) and it's very very unlikely they will. So, it's a nothingburger.
Boy the level of "proof" sure has declined in this forum.
How does this prove anything?
The idea behind short range missiles is to prevent Ukraine from attacking deep into Russian territory and thus provoke a wider conflict, i.e., "The US is directly involved in strikes on Russian territory".
I'm an attorney. I looked at some of the procedural history and, while I have not made an exhaustive search, I have read a few of the rulings in this case.
On January 6, 2022 this case was dismissed for lack of subject matter jurisdiction. The court ruled that he did not have standing, and that the government has not waived sovereign immunity.
Brunson appealed this ruling, and the answer stayed the same. The most recent ruling was this month actually.
Looks like a nothingburger.
I will happily look more into it if anyone can point to something to the contrary. But this is why I don't trust these blogs. The last point especially in the blog, that "If the justices don't vote in favor, they may be charged with treason" is especially ridiculous. Absolute fantasyland.
Last, there is nothing to suggest that SCOTUS will accept cert in this case. Extremely unlikely.
I love Ye's music, but am very very critical of him as a person lately with his 24 antics. But I really enjoy him saying "don't be influenced by celebrities".
It's amazing celebs have as much clout as they currently do. I'm way more educated than someone like Lebron James - why would I take a cue from him?
Looks interesting - will read more into this. However, I would advise not to put too much emphasis on some of the words in this order such as "irreparable harm". It's not unheard of or monumental - it's the same verbiage for every injunction granted for the last 50 years.
That is just part of what must be proven if you want the judge to grant an injunction. The public interest factors are also an element of getting an injunction.
No one is paying attention to Durham.
