Unfortunately, that was procedurally a shitty case to overturn Obergefell.  I wouldn't take this as much of a victory.

That said, fuck Kim Davis in her goatse ass.

 

the conservative block wants a better case

also ...

One couple whom Davis discriminated against sued her for violating their civil rights, and a jury ordered her to pay $360,000 in damages in attorneys’ fees. She and her lawyers at the fringe-right law firm Liberty Counsel have spent years fighting that award. And that is what Davis v. Ermold is really about.

 

fuck kim davis

BREAKING: SCOTUS Justice Samuel Alito has granted a *temporary* administrative pause on Judge Jeff Brown’s ruling re: Texas’ congressional map. He is requesting a response from the plaintiffs by EOD Monday on whether to pause the ruling for the length of the appeal

I confess I don't understand civil law in this area at all. The district court ruling was a full ruling by a panel of 3 on the merits after a hearing that lasted more than a week. How does the one judge (presumably it comes to Alito for the emergency petition because he's over the Fifth Circuit?) have the ability to overturn a merits ruling, even "temporarily" when this is not at the injunction stage? Is this a Purcell vs. Equal Protection question (as far as which one governs) and what is the legal standard used here to block a ruling for the losing party's benefit... when there hasn't even been briefing from both parties yet?  Seems like bullshit
