The more I think about this, the more I think it’s actually a relatively positive development for the plaintiffs—who were able to get the full D.C. Circuit to revive some of their strongest claims (the amended panel ruling) in a way that’s not likely to provoke immediate intervention from #SCOTUS.
Late to this; it's from Aug 21. But it details exactly who John Roberts IS. You're the bain of Roberts' existence, the MVP in at least undermining his/their freedom to do what they've been doing for the last 4+ months. I mean ... EXACTLY what they're doing. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...
Is THIS the ultimate Supreme Ct test of whether Civil Service Act violates the first sentence of Constitution's Art. II, which per unitary executive theory precludes any Congressional check on executive authority re congressionally created exec branch agencies? www.washingtonpost.com/climate-envi...
1/ So ... about this guy Aram Moghaddassi, and his stated conclusion that the business needs outweigh the risks of uploading to an unsecured private cloud operation SSA's complete database of everyone's private info, with access only (he says) by HIM? Wasn't there ... www.msnbc.com/the-last-wor...
2/ a fairly recent 2-1 DC Circuit opinion allowing this cuz folks appointed to ferret out fraud have a legitimate need for access to the entire SSA data base? Or was that re the IRS? *Has* there been a DC Cir opinion or order giving this the go-ahead? If not, was (is) there a case challenging ...
3/ this (borrowing from @velshi.com) RANDOM GUY being given the authority and access to DO THIS? Asking for friends - lots of 'em.

Can that be raised in all the Cases against Trump?? Did the State Officers and Az. Legislature uphold their Art 6 sec 3 Oath and give Full Faith and Credit as commanded in Art 4 Sec 1?? did any Federal or State Court do so? or All the legislative and executive officers??
I’ve been practicing law for 20 years and have never before heard the term “dissental”. Is it just me, or is it Judge Katsas?

I swear, I have never heard this word before in my life!
In my defense, I’m from First Circuit country, and our Circuit has so few active service judges (6) that en banc practice is fairly rare. Maybe that’s why I’ve been living in the dark until now.
But what about Pan's dissent?
Yay, Florence!
Yes, her dissent struck me as right on target: the constitutional question was swept under the en banc flying carpet.
Pan says as much in her dissent.
