@raphjd said in CDC Eviction Moratoriums are illegal says US Supreme Court:
@hubrys
Stop being a clown.
Trump did not go against the SCOTUS ruling on EMs, Biden did.
Until your dying breath, you are going to blame Trump for everything.
You keep proving you are nothing but a total political hack.
Once again, since you are a liberal.
SCOTUS ruled on the case AFTER Trump was in office.
Biden decided to violate that ruling.
@raphjd You are such a tool of your right-wing conspiracy sources...
1 - There was no opinion in the case you constantly refer to here, just a finding that a specific law did not apply to a specific case. Nothing - nothing - was written to explain their finding, nor to create a precedent. The finding was that they couldn't agree to overturn the lower court, so with a 4-4 tie, the lower court (appeals court) ruling stood.
2 - With no explanation, there is no way to "interpret" the finding in the above case, except in the instance for which it was found. This is "unsettled law".
3 - It was Trump's CDC rule that was found to exceed what was authored in the original law - a law that has been re-written and re-passed since.
NOTE: It doesn't mean Trump's CDC rule was good or bad, just that their legal basis for their rule was an "overreach" in the eyes of an appeals court judge (or, possibly a panel)... and SCOTUS couldn't agree enough to say either way!
4 - Biden's CDC (which is arguably, the same as the Trump CDC) issued a new rule to stop evictions. I don't agree with the rule (as I noted: where the f**k are the landlords supposed to get the money to pay the taxes, mortgage, repairs, etc.?? Many of the landlords I'm speaking of are INDIVIDUAL PEOPLE, not corporations with deep-pockets... in many cases, this was people's retirement plan - and not only is the cash flow gone, but the "principal" is too! They've been foreclosed on - in many cases by the TAX-MAN!)
5 - In response to an earlier post: NO, the NIH is not entirely political - but they have, in recent history, been dragged into political arguments. Also, as the HEAD of the CDC is a political appointee, there can sometimes be overlap.
That is a LONG WAY from being entirely political
Indeed, I would propose that the CDC (and NIH) are mostly a-political, but their findings get used by politicians when it suits them.
Is the new moratorium on evictions (for non-payment of rent due to COVID-19) a political rule? Or a public health one? If you asked me to, I could reasonably argue either way.
And that is the true nature of humanity - most things are NOT clear-cut, binary observations. There are usually nuances...
