The Supreme Court does right: Slapping down rogue judges and asserting parental rights

This is a good day to be a sensible American.

This morning the Supreme Court handed down some rulings and I was looking forward to seeing how they would go.  I am not disappointed at all.

Mahmoud v. Taylor is the case out of Maryland involving parents who wanted to opt out of having their children exposed to homosexual material in public school.  The justices went 6 to 3 in favor of the parents.  It's a magnificent win for parental rights regarding their children.

It should have been a unanimous ruling though.  I'm going to be looking for the minority opinion.  As many would guess the three dissenting justices were Kagan, Sotomayor, and "I don't know what a woman is" Brown.

And then there is the situation involving the Trump Administration and all of those federal judges who have been hitting the president with nationwide injunctions, effectively keeping Trump from implementing the agenda he was elected to adhere to.  Once again the justices ruled 6 to 3.  The rogue judges have been stopped.  For the time being anyway.  But it really wouldn't surprise me if some judges try to ignore the Supreme Court on this.

The importance of this case cannot be over-emphasized.  The out of control judges have been taking it upon themselves to have the authority of the executive, disregarding the separation of powers embodied in the Constitution.  Had the judges not been challenged, we would have had hundreds of judges across America thinking that they could legislate from the bench.  Without anyone really able to stop them.  This decision was a victory for constitutional rule of law.  And we should be thankful that the high court went this way.  Otherwise, well... it would have been one more step toward something regrettable.  It certainly would have sent America spiraling into chaos.

So, sanity prevails this day.  I am choosing to be thankful for that.

EDIT 06/27/2025 7:21 pm EST:  I was curious about what the minority justices in Mahmoud v. Taylor were going to say and... good lord this is hideous.

This is what Justice Sonia Sotomayor - one of the worst justices in the history of the high court - had to say:

Sotomayor said public schools “offer to children of all faiths and backgrounds an education and an opportunity to practice living in our multicultural society.”

   “That experience is critical to our Nation’s civic vitality,” she added. “Yet it will become a mere memory if children must be insulated from exposure to ideas and concepts that may conflict with their parents’ religious beliefs.

Sotomayor said Friday’s ruling ushers in a “new reality” for American public schools.

“Casting aside longstanding precedent, the Court invents a constitutional right to avoid exposure to ‘subtle’ themes ‘contrary to the religious principles’ that parents wish to instill in their children,” she wrote. “Exposing students to the ‘message’ that LGBTQ people exist, and that their loved ones may celebrate their marriages and life events, the majority says, is enough to trigger the most demanding form of judicial scrutiny.”

Justice Sotomayor, it's not the purpose of government to create and enforce a "multicultural society".  And it's certainly well within the rights of parents to choose to not have their children exposed to material that so egregiously violates their beliefs.  The agenda of a deviant minority do not trump the right to the majority's freedom of faith.

Most of the United States Supreme Court just told the radical LGBT lobby to sit down and shut up.  And it's a beautiful thing.

EDIT 06/27/2025 8:02 PM EST: and of course, there is also Justice Amy Coney Barrett's slappping Ketanji Brown Jackson down.

One of the things that Joe Biden promised when he was running in 2000 was that he would put the first black woman on the Supreme Court.  So it is that Ketanji Brown only got on the bench because she was a "diversity, equity, inclusion" hire.  She has absolutely no merit whatsoever.  Brown is the WORST justice in the history of the high court.

I suspect that one of the reasons why Donald Trump won this past November is because most of the American people are disgusted with identity politics.  Brown represents the worst of that.

And anyone who can't tell us what a woman is has no business being anywhere in judicial branch at all, much less the high court.
