Is this not a time to celebrate the fact that two conservatives voted for this? That not all conservatives are in the back pocket of Trump? I mean, I've read numerous comments predicting the doom and gloom of the Supreme Court since Trump got in charge of ---. Sure, not all the conservatives voted for this, but c'mon y'all...this IS a huge deal and maybe should give a bit of hope and damnit...can't anyone acknowledge that there are conservatives AND liberals who together do the right thing?
Good Lord...maybe I missed it, but I didn't even see anyone here acknowledge last December when BOTH parties AND Trump did the right thing when a bill was UNANIMOUSY PASSED and signed by TRUMP making animal cruelty a federal crime and Trump issuing orders to create a task force to enforce it and then also Trump directing the FDA to start enforcing the regulations and laws governing the ethical treatment of animals in research labs or Trump saying he wants to see an end to all animal research, after all AI can do better now anyways. Of course Trump says a lot of bullshht, but when he actually DOES something right, maybe giving some thumbs up might encourage him to do more good things. The media BARELY gave this stuff any coverage and I only found out by accidentally seeing ONE story online by ABC. If the media would have blasted the amazing-ness of it, it would trigger Trump to do more...he craves it when the media has to acknowledge He and both Dems and Repubs did something RIGHT...And let him take all the credit "There's never been a president like me fighting for the animals..." Use his own ego to propel him to do the right things. Just MY opinion.
Is it THAT hard to give credit where credit is due? That's why I'm an independent, even if I can't spell it correctly in my username LOL ;-) Choosing a "side" would make me want to be loyal and ignore the wrongs that my side does and ignore the good when the other side does.
That's what I'm doing...this shows there IS hope....that there are still folks in the Supreme Court who are basing their judgements on the law and not politics.

I never once said that I believed that the Supremes had turned over a new leaf. Go back a re-read, as I can be a TERRIBLE communicator. So let me know if I did imply that please.
What I am saying is to celebrate *THIS*ONE*PARTICULAR* event...
By ALWAYS holding back from acknowleding when things go right because "we don't know if a new leaf is turned over" means the positive energy never gets out there to support them when they do things right...INSTEAD forgot for the moment what the future brings or what the past brought, and go WOO HOO THE CONSERVADICKS GOT IT RIGHT FOR *ONCE* and maybe just maybe if enough people did --- like that it would create some momentum to let the politicians know that it can be worth they're while to do more like this.....
But if they don't get the good feedback FROM THE OTHER SIDE... In other words, if conservative politicians/judges etc got SUPPORT from some liberals acknowledging they liked what they did, they will remember that...
If you NEVER give any positive support they'll hear:
NOTHING.....
CRICKETS from "their other side"
