us law (supreme court)

SCOTUS has ruled that Trump's dumbass tariffs are unconstitutional. Which I think would have been obvious.

But I find that Clarence Thomas voted against. Now I can't wait to see what bizarre logic chopping Mr. Major Questions Nondelegation Constitutional Textualist Asshole has found for allowing Congress to delegate its taxation power to the Executive branch.

There was a time when I respected Clarence Thomas. I once wrote “Thomas may not be a fan of marijuana, but he is even less a fan of federal overreach and abuse of the Commerce Clause. These nine people are much more complex than the newspapers would have you believe.” I had to respect his autistic and unwavering commitment to principle, even when I thought he was an asshole upholding asshole principles.

But if any of that was left I don't see how it can survive this opinion.
