Hussein Obummer praised the affirmative action decision and dumped on the Republicans for the immigration decision. What a self-pitying, self-glorifying asshole. :thumbdown:

How do four judges not understand that just because congress doesn't act, doesn't mean that the president can write new laws. Politically I support more of what the president did than not support it. Regardless, how do you read the constitution and say the president can change the law :(

Hopefully the affirmative action decision is a wake up call to the GOP factions not behind Trump. If Hillary wins she'll appoint 2 or 3 justices during her term heavily slanting the court In an ultra-liberal direction.

At 5:00 pm Eastern Superior Time, I flipped the three major cable news network.
Fox lead with the Brexit story. CNN and MSNBC lead with the SC decisions.
