Good logic, bad logic
The Supreme Criminals made two surprising rulings today.
The big one allows Trump's ENFORCEMENT OF EXISTING FEDERAL LAW to proceed. This is a strong signal to the lower criminals who have stated EXPLICITLY AND OPENLY that Trump was not allowed to enforce EXISTING FEDERAL LAW because he had the WRONG BELIEFS. They used the word 'motivation' instead of belief, but it's exactly the same thing. He was elected by the WRONG SORT OF PEOPLE, so he's not allowed to take office.
The smaller decision favors a parochial school in Mo that was trying to get a state subsidy for playground improvements. In terms of teams and sides, I'm happy to see the religious side "winning" one, but in terms of logic I can't see it. If I'd been a juror on that case I would have ruled against the school. This is NOT a question of belief, it's a question of subsidies.
The First Amendment is perfectly clear. Government shouldn't FAVOR OR DISFAVOR religion. Government shouldn't DO ANYTHING AT ALL in connection to religion.
JUST FUCKING LEAVE IT ALONE.
Here the state was following the principle correctly by denying a subsidy to the religious school.
