WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Justice Samuel Alito on Thursday laid out a possible agenda for the U.S. Supreme Court if it regains its conservative majority as expected after Donald Trump takes office, citing gun rights and religious freedom as among key issues it will tackle in the coming years.

Alito, one of the court's two most conservative justices along with Clarence Thomas, pointed to freedom of speech and a disruption of the U.S. Constitution's separation of powers caused by federal agencies expanding their authority at the expense of the U.S. Congress as other "constitutional fault lines" that could come before the court.

It's a good thing Senate republicans didn't confirm Obama's nominee after all.

Keep the boot on their necks. They'd do the same to you.

Damn right. You don't know how fucking suh-weet it is to know our favorite Italian ex pornstar is probably crying in her safe space right now after numerous threads she started about how the GOP would never take the White House again or how white people would be extinct by 2040.

Liberal tears are the nectar of the gods in the name of liberty.

Boots on their necks indeed.

and what is right will always eventually triumph
and their is purpose and worth to each and every life

You mean the guy several of them said would be an excellent nominee, until Obama actually nominated him? :1orglaugh

Yeah that's a real admirable group there :1orglaugh

The dems can threaten a filibuster, correct? Which if I recall correctly might lead to a supermajority of 60 being needed to confirm?

Thanks for the link.
I'd already forgotten about the nuclear option.
Agree with Graham's quote that concludes the article.
