... what is the point of this ruling. [sic]
It's not a "ruling." It's a Consent Decree. More commonly known as a settlement agreement. As is common with settlements there is no admission of the factual or legal basis for the claims or positions of the parties. It applies to no one else. It can only be enforced by the named parties. It establishes no precedent.
17. The parties acknowledge that this Agreement is entered into solely for the purpose of settling and compromising any remaining claims in this action without further litigation, and, except as stated explicitly in the text of the Agreement, it shall not be construed as evidence or as an admission regarding any issues of law or fact, or regarding the truth or validity of any allegation or claim raised in this action or in any other action.nclalegal.org
As such, the settlement is not an example of federal censorship. It's another Buffoon TACO in the face of deadlines requiring it to disclose the evidentiary basis for it's claims of Biden censonship.
If it arrives election day whats the issue?
If the mail ballot is cast, posted and postmarked on election day, all in accord with state law, what's the problem?
Never mind, it's rhetorical. I'll stick with reports of problems from jurisdictions with the most experience in all mail balloting; OR (26 yr), WA (14) and CO (12). www.ncsl.org
This is one of three cases bubbling in the Fifth Circuit. Earlier this month the en banc Circuit ducked (overruled the panel decision) the merits question (is it constitutional) by ruling the LA law is not "ripe" for a merits decision (no LA district has actually implemented the law so we're in the dark about how this law works). reason.com
In the mean time the rest of the world knows exactly how it works. Plastering schools with religious dogma influences children. That's why religious private schools do what they do. The First Amendment tells public schools not to do that. Yet some are in the dark.
We'll see.
You don't get it.
Flynn is guilty as f***. No court, including the USSC, has ruled otherwise, not even close. The unproven after the fact whining changes nothing. The Buffoon TACO'd again because it could not accept that the Biden administration was correct. It cost us 1.25M. Shame.
