    Let’s not forget the “hypothetical case that SCOTUS” centigrade ruled on.

    WTF was that about? Isn’t that essentially giving court legislative power to arbitrarily set new laws?

      That’s what the Major Questions Doctrine is.

      It is a bald-faced power grab from the court. It’s turning themselves into a legislative body to rewrite and create new laws based on a completely capricious test. It is 100% fake and will NOT survive the historical record, but these chucklefucks are going to do a lot of damage with it in the meantime.

        ‘Major questions doctrine’ and ‘originalism’ were both invented from whole cloth as justification for conservatives going against the spirit of the constitution, it’s all bullshit, it’s all propaganda the court is using to justify it’s blatant partisan corruption.

        Notice also that all of these newly discovered ‘theories of law’ are all conservative in nature, both sides are the same my ass. The entire conservative movement is basically corrupt to the bone.

          Watch how fast Barret code switches between textualism and purposivism depending on context. Suddenly making arguments about intent that conflicts with the text of a law (even ignoring the fact that there is clear proof that her claimed intent is false).

          These people are honest-to-god monsters. They will say or do anything to achieve their agenda. Absolutely zero legitimacy. It’s time to, at minimum, pack the court.

        On top of that, the major questions doctrine is to help shape future legislation on these issues of American society deemed vitally important. That isn’t the role of SCOTUS. The court should be there to balance and check the law; it only exists to be reactive, not proactive on matters of law.

        This doctrine is a major overstep.
