The former Rowan County clerk who was jailed after refusing to issue marriage licenses to gay couples is being represented by the legal team Liberty Counsel, which aims to use the case to overturn same-sex marriage at the federal level.
Obergefell was codified (essentially) a year and a half ago
Now this doesn’t stop SCOTUS from attempting fuckery, but the fact that the law passed with 61 votes in third reich of a senate the US has… says all one should need to know about how congress and the president should react if SCOTUS even tried. But of course, they should’ve already ejected 6 members from that court years ago or just all agreed that SCOTUS doesn’t exist for what it’s currently doing and them saying “nuh, uh! We do!” actually means nothing except the meaning congress continues to allow.
Alternatively, SCOTUS did make it fully legal for a president to say “this is an official act” then drop a 2000lb bomb on the supreme court 🤷♂️ not me saying that, they passed the ruling.
