Supreme Court throws out Biden administration eviction moratorium

[MMC]

The Constitution gives Congress the power to do it, not the Executive. That's all SCOTUS is saying, that Biden/CDC doesn't have the power. If you want to blame anyone, blame Congress/Pelosi.

Cori Bush Reacts to 'Partisan' Ruling on Unconstitutional Eviction Moratorium.....

By a 6-3 vote, the Supreme Court ruled late on Thursday night that the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) does not have the authority to issue an eviction moratorium, and blocked the Biden administration’s edict. The high court sided with landlords in the case, and said that Congress must legislate the moratorium for it to continue.


Congresswoman Cori Bush (D-MO), who spearheaded a pressure campaign on the Biden administration to implement the order, criticized the court's “partisan” ruling.


Ahead of the court challenge, President Biden admitted that the edict was likely unconstitutional.....snip~

I find these items hypocritical for in the next moment Americans will claim they are religious and Christians, evangelicals and whatnot. But when it comes to the privileged SCOTUS, members of the upper caste, charity be damned, Sermon on the Mount ignored. Jesus they ignore your teaching, oh you knew that.

'Gorsuch spent his career representing big corporate clients against the interests of ordinary Americans and consistently ruling against workers in favor of big business, the Democratic National Committee said in a statement. We cannot afford a Supreme Court justice who doesn't have the utmost respect for constitutional values of liberty, equality and justice for all.

Barrett lied under oath and this is SCOTUS material, seriously.

"Kamala Harris delivered a blistering rebuke of Republican efforts to tear down healthcare and abortion access as she grilled Amy Coney Barrett, prompting the supreme court nominee to make the unbelievable claim that she was not aware of Donald Trump’s campaign promise to appoint justices who would dismantle Obamacare."

"Few American institutions have inflicted greater suffering on ordinary people than the Supreme Court of the United States. Since its inception, the justices of the Supreme Court have shaped a nation where children toiled in coal mines, where Americans could be forced into camps because of their race, and where a woman could be sterilized against her will by state law.

I find your constant references to religion and the Sermon on the Mount (lol) hypocritical because you are generally hostile to religion in public life.

BTW, your prose is clumsy. For someone who claims to read so much you are a terrible writer.

Basically, as they had already said, Congress needs to legislate not the CDC.

A ruling stating that the CDC exceeded statutory authority is little consolation. Basically they're saying this nonsense can be regulated by Congress. Maybe they should read the Contracts Clause. Article I, Section 10, Clause 1 - No State shall...pass any...Law impairing the Obligation of ContractsOf course this is intended to limit the power of the states.
But this is what happens when a broadly interpreted Commerce Clause and General Welfare clause suddenly put the federal government in a position where its not regulating things in a way that states are clearly prohibited from doing.

The whole thing is a complete constitutional cluster$#@!

I saw that and I have to pretty agree with it. Biden as on CBS News this morning and though we don;t like it, there was no ruling against it at time, so Biden said they just went for it. What bugs me most about it, is that it seems that the only ones who didn't get money were the landlords!

Congress has to create such a move, so we'll see what happens.

As long as the state doesn't prevent people from working.

That has nothing to do with the contractual obligations of the renter. It is not the Landlord's fault if the State does something stupid. His own debts and obligations don't go away.

[Mister D]

Biden just went for it. You know, whatevs. These shills...

That does not matter. Landlords also have to pay bills, just like renters. The Landlords had their own reason to work with the renters. It takes time to get renters out, fix up a unit and then find a renter. They do not make money when the unit is empty for either reason.

Plus with the Federal money being paid to stay home, the only people not paying rent were scammers or those that could not have paid rent despite the shutdowns. But even in the shutdowns there were employers looking for employees and they would have taken almost anyone. It was personal choice that left people at home and not working.

What the guy is pointing out is the hypocrisy that does exist and you know as well as I do that large corporate property owners like Blackstone, because of they way they are, will initiate a cascade of evictions because they can. And of course you don't see that.

Ok, but those people wound up receiving unemployment on steroids.

Now of course we are going to deal with the consequences of this nonsense. First thing is that now that landlords can get tenants out, any landlord out there whose tenant screwed him for rent, that tenant has a strong possibility of being out soon. The landlord will increase the rent or whatnot. Bottom line many landlords aren't going to want to deal with their current tenants. Secondly, many landlords aren't going to want to be landlords anymore, so guess what? They sell the unit if practical and move on, liquidate, payoff the mortgage at a time when properties are going for premiums and maybe focus on AirBNB? I dunno. Beyond that, Delta is still floating out there, so if they did this once, they'll do it again.....so anybody thinking about building rental property is going to give it a second thought.

Rents? They're going to be going up.
