President Trump's Supreme Court delivers a massive religious freedom victory for Catholic Nuns, the Little Sisters of the poor:

Read the majority opinion before you mouth off about it. The victory was about as limited in scope as it could possibly have been in that it merely validated the insertion of an executive-order exception into the still-standing anti-Catholic [Un]Affordable Care Act (i.e., ObamaCare). Biden has already declared that he will annul the exception as soon as he is inaugurated. In fact, Trump himself could annul it with the stroke of a pen if Kushner were to tell him in the weeks between now and the election that more votes would be had by getting rid of it than by keeping it.
Trump's Justice Department should have pressed from the outset for the negation of ObamaCare as unconstitutional on First Amendment grounds. That never happened. Nor indeed did Trump ever make a serious attempt to get the fully Republican Congress of his first two years to repeal ObamaCare. His opposition to it was confined to fundraising speeches and his endless, meaningless tweets.
Support Trump if you want to. After all, little boys need to play games to develop their reflexes and whatever wits they have, and rearranging the deck chairs on the
Titanic, the game being played here, at least has a certain amount of historical cachet. But stop acting as if Trump is some sort of enemy of the Establishment. If he had been such, he would have gotten precisely the same treatment that Ron Paul got—consignment to oblivion—in 2008 and 2012. The fact that
Trump was allowed to talk openly about immigration, a topic that had been shut down by the narrative masters of the airwaves since the late sixties, should have set the warning bells ringing in every functioning brain in the country. That it didn't ought to be seen as an indication of how very few functioning brains there now are in the Imperial States of America.
