According to precedent, a public figure must prove a defendant acted with “actual malice" in defaming a person.

I really let it rip with this one. Please read, and if you find it worthy, I’d greatly appreciate you share it with your friends. What did the court do in Dobbs that no one is talking about?

Hidden in the SCOTUS Opinion: The Definition of a Woman
With everyone talking about the Roe v. Wade opinion, I expected this to get a little more attention. People don’t really like to read hundreds of pages of legal opinion, but I do, and so I found a little gem that no one, and I mean no one, is talking about.…

From SCOTUS Blog:
The Court has declined to take up Coral Ridge Ministries v. SPLC, the case asking them to overrule NYT v. Sullivan.
Justice Thomas dissents from the denial of review.
Thomas writes that he would grant review to revisit the Sullivan "actual malice" standard for defamation. "This case," he writes, "is one of many showing how NYT and its progeny have allowed media organizations and interest groups 'to cast false aspersions on public figures with near impunity."
[Brian - This was a defamation case and Sullivan is the precedent case with the standard of 'actual malice' that sets an extremely high bar for a public figure to meet to successfully sue for defamation]
This was a case in which a Christian non-profit group sued the Southern Poverty Law Center for designating it as an anti-LGBT hate group, and AmazonSmile excluded Coral Ridge from participating in the program based on that designation.

Clarification from Friday:
The vote to overturn Roe v Wad was not 6-3 as originally reported. It was 5-4.
Because Chief Justice Roberts filed his own separate opinion upholding the Mississippi restriction but voting to keep Roe v Wade, his vote counts with the dissenters.
"The vote to overturn Roe was 5-4. Justices Clarence Thomas, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney Barrett joined Alito’s opinion. Chief Justice John Roberts did not join the opinion. He agreed with the majority that the Mississippi abortion restriction at issue in the case should be upheld, but in a separate opinion, he argued that the court should not have overturned Roe."

The Liberal reading of the establishment clause was always just as dishonest as their reading of the 2nd Amendment.
Allowing students and staff to pray on school grounds does not officially establish anyone's religion as the official religion of the school district and thereby excluding all others, which is what the incoherent policy had been.

The fear of offending the Constitution's establishment clause does not, Gorsuch writes, require the government "to single out private religious speech for special disfavor. The Constitution and the best of our traditions counsel mutual respect and tolerance, not censorship and suppression, for religious and nonreligious views alike."

So in the past week the SCOTUS released decisions that removed 2nd Amend violations blocking concealed carry in the states, returned the abortion issue to the states, and reversed decades of prohibiting prayer in the public schools.
All of that since last Wednesday. And they're not done yet.

Anita Hill Rode his coattails, Job after job. They were compatible work associates for years.
But when Joe Biden and the judicial committee needed to lynch a black man she stepped up to the plate willingly.
And now, in Trumps grand vision for a statuary garden for heroes of the republic?
Our grandchildren will see Clarence Thomas immortalized for his noble contributions.
But Anita Hill will remain forever a pubic hair on the Coke can of history.

ICYMI 🚨 This morning, Justice Clarence Thomas signaled interest in making it easier to sue THE MEDIA. Notes that he would revisit the landmark 1964 decision in New York Times v. Sullivan that makes it relatively difficult to bring successful lawsuits against media outlets for defamation.
"This case is one of many showing how the NYT and its progeny have allowed media organizations and interest groups to cast false aspersions on public figures with near impunity."'
