Good! Although considering that the Supreme Court is thoroughly corrupted at this point, if the lawsuit actually goes anywhere I doubt it would survive an SC review regardless of the legal merits.


Agreed. Even when a constitutional violation by the Federal Government has been recognized by the SCOTUS, they defer to Congress to decide and authorize a damage remedy. (Egbert v Boule)

Since Congress defers to the Executive, it's one big loop of injustice.


It is important to keep the pressure on even if it is not likely to prevail.
