Gorsuch forgot Joe re-upped the Covid national emergency, and since they didn't make a judgement the included the " scientific merits" the current admins policy is that there is a state of emergency concerning covid. I should be a lawyer, I just made that up!

yeah, he kinda contradicts himself, right ? National Emergency as we know is pretty much set in stone by the patriot act, yet he dissented, the National Emergency wasn't on the calender, Patriot act is law, this title 42 is what a EO right? Patriot act have the EO i its teeth. Just saying if the National Emergency wasn't pushed out, the argument would be different... I didn't read the dissent yet, just applying what is my arguement, can't get rid of one without the other( national covid emergency)

My bad - he's arguing that Trump issued it to curtail covid - stating that the emergency does not still exist - but you're saying yes, it does, under Biden.

Quote from Gorsuch dissent:

>The only plausible reason for stepping in at this stage that I can discern has to do with the States’ second request. The States contend that they face an immigration crisis at the border and policymakers have failed to agree on adequate measures to address it. The only means left to mitigate the crisis, the States suggest, is an order from this Court directing the federal government to continue its COVID-era Title 42 policies as long as possible—at the very least during the pendency of our review. Today, the Court supplies just such an order. For my part, I do not discount the States’ concerns. Even the federal government acknowledges “that the end of the Title 42 orders will likely have disruptive consequences.” Brief in Opposition for Federal Respondents 6. But the current border crisis is not a COVID crisis. And courts should not be in the business of perpetuating administrative edicts designed for one emergency only because elected officials have failed to address a different emergency. We are a court of law, not policymakers of last resort.>>

Then why is the entire continent of South America still walking across the “border”? What in the fuck am I missing about something that’s not even being enforced?
