Are you referring to the tweet from Erica Marsh?
I'm referring to that and the post right after it. Also your quadruple post starting here and there was another double post before that.

Statement from New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy (D) on the US Supreme Court dismantling affirmative action in colleges and universities nationwide. Murphy doubling-down on keeping affirmative action policies in the State of New Jersey.
Statements from United States Senators Cory Booker (D-NJ) and Bob Menendez (D-NJ), who calls out the six Supreme Court Justices and accusing them of erecting roadblocks in the nation's march to racial justice for decades to come.

Well, let's see this actually get enforced on these colleges then.
NEW: In 6-3 decision, Supreme Court rules race-based Affirmative Action programs are unconstitutional, violate the 14th Amendment
The Supreme Court just struck a blow to Affirmative Action, ruling race-based college admissions quotas unconstitutional under the 14th Amendment.notthebee.com
Those sons of bitches did it.
Major white pill moment for me. Perhaps not all is lost

Big question is whether the beneficiaries of yesterday's ruling will be Historically Black Colleges and Universities?
A.) YES
B.) NO
C.) TBD
Bold Prediction: College athletics will likely be looking extremely different in the coming decades now that affirmative action is dismantled.
Statement from Maryland Governor Wes Moore (D) on the US Supreme Court dismantling affirmative action in colleges and universities across the nation. Moore sounds like he will give the US Supreme Court a big Fuck You middle finger:

AGAIN. Stop double posting. Edit your previous post unless there's like a day's worth of time in between, or wait for someone to post in the meantime. This is basic forum etiquette.
Anyway, interesting update on the 303 Creative case. Basically, it seems like it ought to have been mooted awhile ago. The person who allegedly made the request for a gay marriage website (Stewart), is apparently not gay? He's a straight married guy.
The Mysterious Case of the Fake Gay Marriage Website, the Real Straight Man, and the Supreme Court
In filings in the 303 Creative v. Elenis case is a supposed request for a gay wedding website—but the man named in the request says he never filed it.

My guess is that the Stewart guy did it as a prank, but I really don't know (and to the NR's credit, they raise that as a possibility). Also, decisions coming in 20 minutes. People can watch a live feed here.
2 Boxes. The cases today are going to be 303 Creative and the Student Loan cases.
Bake the Cake 2.0 is in (303 Creative) by Gorsuch. He finds for the wedding designer, namely that her work is protected by the speech clause in the first amendment.
The first student loans case was dismissed for lack of standing. The states couldn't prove injury. Alito gave the unanimous decision.
The second student loan case met standing, and the loan forginess program was declared unlawful.

Good... we needed this victory. Sounds like a clear victory against compelled speech too...
The progs are gonna be screeching about this one, as it undercuts a huge amount of their agenda. For instance, this decision in effect guts any campus speech code that demands people "use the preferred pronouns" (which are of dubious constitutionality anyway)... it may even be able to be used to sue colleges that demand students or professors sign "equity" pledges. Basically this reenforces that the Constitution prohibits compelled speech, and that's a message people desperately needed to hear.

It gets even better: the Court has just struck down Biden's debt-forgiveness plan.
"All this leads the Court to conclude that "[t]he basic and consequential tradeoffs" inherent in a mass debt cancellation program "are ones that Congress would likely have intended for itself." (...) In such circumstances, the Court has required the Secretary to "point to 'clear congressional authorization' " to justify the challenged program. (...) And as explained, the HEROES Act provides no authorization for the Secretary's plan when examined using the ordinary tools of statutory interpretation—let alone "clear congressional authorization" for such a program."

Only state colleges, but yeah.

As it should be. Free speech also includes the right to keep your mouth shut and say nothing.
I'll have to read the whole thing later. Gorsuch's rulings are always interesting.

There were two cases on the matter. They dismissed the first one, but then ruled 6-3 on the second one.
Which has some interesting consequences re: standing (which is why they dismissed one of the two, I imagine: to minimise the scope of the precedent here).
Thanks for this!
