The states can sue over both the law (it’s illegal to build this without Congressional Approval. SCOTUS need to read the law), and the funding. You can’t use public funds for this. @normeisen.bsky.social @dems.ag

He's a likely coward

Quit curious what the opinion of the five scumbags is.

Cowardly corrupt Court!

Roberts is playing the tired Susan Collins card...

Wow! What weakness and fealty shown

Likelihood of success on the merits is the applicable legal standard when considering stays. So “likely unlawful” is entirely appropriate here. Guys, stay focused — Roberts (for once) is not the problem here!

The very brave conservative justices bravely stand up for the plain meaning of the law in the face of Trump’s lawlessness in situations like this when it really matters to the nation, like when we need to not build a ballroom. Voting rights however can go fuck themselves

“Likely” is the operative word with the government.

Likely? What about separation of powers asshole.

We live in a world where a Supreme Court Justice says something is "likely unlawful". Mr Chief Justice, either it is or it isn't. If you don't know, who does? "Beats me" isn't a dissent or a ruling... it's just a cowards way out.

But don't bother to know for certain.

LIKELY?!

Roberts gave himself permission to vote against, once he knew (persuaded) the conservative majority was safely going to rule for no standing. There is no law anymore in the US.

gosh if only there was, like, a 'Court' that sorta ruled like one and for all - 'Supremely', you might say - that something was unlawful and therefore had to be undone (or its initiator had to go to prison) if only (sigh)

Amen brother

Exactly

Yup

Roberts is the Susan Collins of the Supreme Court, it was safe for him to side with the 3 liberal justices, otherwise he wouldn't have.

Safe in the knowledge it was going on no matter what he said. #SoBrave

Not this one

Not a point a joke like our system these days

FCK ROBERTS. FCK HIM. MAY HE ROT IN HELL. MAY HE DIE A LONG, SLOW, EXTREMELY PAINFUL DEATH. HIS ACTIONS ARE CAUSING SO MANY HARM. FCK HIM

I got yer ballroom right here!!

He then proceeds to explain why it isn't "likely," but "certainly"

Privately funded?

Unlawful and yet, SCOTUS lets it continue anyway. Corrupt.

Likely unlawful? Gee why not just tear the whole White House down and build a second MaraLago?

John Roberts is taking a page out of Susan Collins' book: "I'm concerned"

Make it a shelter for the homeless.

Then why the fuck do we have a SCOTUS?

You sew what you reap, Mr Roberts.

John Robert’s found his tiny little sac today. Let’s see if he can find that little thing again sometime soon.

Well then it can be tore the fuck down when Dems take over

Wtf and the demolition was not ??

Then why are they permitting it?

Who has the right to sue? Regular American citizens? Like US?

It's a gift, in a way. If Congress calls him on it, he's likely to lose; Roberts said as much. Done the right way, they can block the ballroom, the helipad, the arch... all of it. The obvious flaw is that responsible adults are needed to supervise this toddler. It won't happen until Jan 3rd.

Why bother passing a law? The Court can just rule that the next President can't alter it under whatever pretext they choose that day. On the shadow docket, no less.
