2022 …The Year Of the Backbone ?

Is it possible that this coming year will indeed be the year that the Supreme Court develops a backbone? Is it possible that 2022 will be the year that our Supreme Court demonstrates that it does have at least a remnant of cajones … no offense intended to Amy Coney Barrett. 

Early in 2021 and late in 2020 when the Court had the opportunity to actually stand for the rule of law, it bailed, and It bailed big time!

Behind closed doors the Chief Justice supposedly angrily warned that if they took up any of the election issues, there would be rioting in the streets. While other Justices were radiating an amber glow to various degrees, Justice Clarence Thomas stood out as a giant among minions.

In February, when the Court decided that a Pennsylvania election dispute was moot, although it didn’t say precisely why, Justice Thomas said, “One wonders what this Court waits for. We failed to settle this dispute before the election, and thus provide clear rules. Now we fail to provide clear rules for future elections. The decision to leave election law behind a shroud of doubt is baffling. By doing nothing, we invite further confusion and erosion of voter confidence. Our fellow citizens deserve better, and expect more of us. I respectfully dissent.”

With innumerable things being mandated, the Court has been basically incognito for an entire year. Is it possible that someone has snuck the equivalent of that infamous little blue pill into the bottled water now being used at One First Street, NE, in Washington, DC.? They are actually going to hear a case concerning Biden’s mandates on 1/7/22. Will this be a signal that 2022 might be “the year of the backbone?”
