What's up nerds!

@AngryBlackLady here live-tweeting #303Creative in which an evangelical Christian wants an advisory opinion about whether making a hypothetical wedding website for a hypothetical gay couple in the future violates her 1st Amendment rights.
Thomas: Is this case ripe?

Waggonner, who is arguing for Alliance Defending Freedom on behalf of Lorie Smith/#303Creative tries to answer and fumbles around.

She's claiming Colorado is chilling her speech.

(No they're not.)
Jackson, Kagan, and Sotomayor are making the point that the wedding website is the invitation of the customer, not the invitation of the wedding website designer. So why is the website the speech of the website designer?

So why is it 303 Creative's message?

(It's not.)

this is wonderful going into #303CreativeVElenis oral arguments this morning where SCOTUS is going to listen to some whiner complain that her evangelical Christianity means she doesn’t have to make a wedding website for a same sex couple. 😒
~plot twist~ nobody, gay or straight, ever even asked this broad to make them a custom wedding website because her company doesn’t even make wedding websites.

She just wants to maybe get into the wedding website business in the future and when she does she wants to discriminate.
Standing. Ripeness. Justiciable controversy.

Used to be a requirement.

#303Creative is a preenforcement action which is sometimes allowed but not when there’s no credible threat of enforcement which here there absolutely is not.

The SCOTUS is illegitimate.
