Another Unanimous SCOTUS Individual Rights Win

The lower court denied the argument that this case could proceed based on the "Takings Clause", because Congress never authorized it!!!!!! We can't rely on the Constitution unless Congress says it is ok? WTF? These lower courts are an absolute joke!

"Because Congress has never authorized such litigation, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit rejected their claims."

Fortunately SCOTUS comes through again, even the 2 woke + 2 RINOs.

    Anything not specifically stated in the Constitution as a Federal statute or responsibility, is automatically deferred to the individual State under whose Jurisdiction it falls.
    This is the exact and precise reason why Roe V Wade struck down.
    There are countless other examples of the Federal bureaucracy sticking it's nose it States business where it does not belong.

    It's 3 woke (female leftist traitors appointed by leftist Dem traitors)
    and 2 naked leftist traitors under their supposed conservative robes
    (appointed by one NWO traitor and one misled naive businessman.)
    The latter two traitorous 'judges' are more dangerous to individual
    liberty than the former 3 obvious leftist traitors.
    Reduce the court to only 3: Thomas, Alito, and Gorsuch.
    Demote the rest to judging excesses by local dog
    catchers in Alaska.
    Never allow anyone on the court who has ever made any
    judgement that allows any government power outside
    the limits of the original constitution and Bill of Rights.

    When it comes to liberty, compromise is for fools or slaves.

    I’m not sure I understand the problem here.

    Texas explicitly has laws to sue under state law for this.
    Texans can, and do, sure the state and localities for these.
    These people wanted to not do that and run to the federal government for something that is a state and local issue.

    The fifth circuit recognized this. Because it being a state matter is the default position, the federal courts are not the correct venue and therefore lack jurisdiction. Unless there is a federal law granting the federal courts jurisdiction, you have to sue in the right court which would be state level.

    This is what the fifth circuit said.

    And the SCOTUS - even the pro-centralists - agreed with.


    Thus my confusion as to why this is posited as a bad thing.
