The Supreme Court is giving the Navy a freer hand determining what job assignments it gives to 35 sailors who sued after refusing on religious grounds to comply with an order to get vaccinated against COVID-19.
The high court in a brief order Friday sided with the Biden administration and said that while the lawsuit plays out, the Navy may consider the sailors’ vaccination status in making deployment, assignment and other operational decisions. The group that sued includes mostly Navy SEALs.
Justice Brett Kavanaugh wrote that there was a “simple overarching reason” that he agreed with the court’s decision. The Constitution makes the president, “not any federal judge,” the commander in chief of the armed forces, he wrote, noting that courts have been traditionally “reluctant to intrude upon the authority of the Executive in military and national security affairs.”

SCTUS = Supreme Clowns of The United States
Let the Supreme Court go out and man the submarines.
Because you're an effing Globalist Bushie squish that wasn't worth the effort President Trump expended on you, McConnell "judge".
When you join the military, you leave your first amendment rights at the door?
SCROTUS
We’d probably have been better off if the Dems had managed to bring down Kavanaugh—and given Trump another chance to get the nomination closer to right.
Trump picked him and Gorsuch and most Freepers supported.
Trump picked the one that The Turtle allowed him to pick.
Granted, a Hillary! appointment would have been disgusting...
Is the Supreme Court vaccinated ?
They’re still alive, so i’d wager a no.
“A SEAL who falls ill not only cannot complete his or her own mission, but risks infecting others as well, particularly in close quarters, including on submarines”
Most of the Seals I know have spent very little time on Submarines.
Probably sudden unexpected death in the middle of an exercise would be worse?
But what could I know
It just boggles how the left/biden et al are so eager to be on the wrong side of everything. They’re like cartoon characters.
The real problem and this isn’t the case to solve it. What happens when the executive is run by a party that wants to destroy the USA? This is where we find ourselves.
Poison our entire military. a good percentage of the population, starve the people and deprived them of their wealth.
All just for the ideals of some crazy rich people and their acolytes.
McConnell was pushing for Amul Thapar to be appointed.
You cannot trust any graduate from Yale or Harvard ....
Yes, all vaccinated and boosted.
I trust Scalia, Thomas, Alito, and some others from those schools.
“When you join the military, you leave your first amendment rights at the door?”
As with any job in private industry, and you are on the clock, yes, and you can never speak for the company unless authorized. However, forcing people to take a shot has nothing to do with the first amendment. And there has to be a penumbra of the Constitution that guarantees a person control of their body, if hundreds of years of common law doesn’t cover it. It does.
We see what the Brandonton pols want us to see.
