JUSTICE DEPARTMENT
DOJ Urges Supreme Court Not to Accept Legal Challenge to All-Male Military Draft BY MATTHEW VADUM The Biden administration is urging the Supreme Court not to take up a petition asking the court to strike down as unconstitutional a law that authorizes military conscription solely for men. The Trump administration defended the current system in the lower courts. President Joe Biden’s Department of Justice (DOJ) obtained two deadline extensions before filing its response. The case is National Coalition for Men v. Selective Service System, court file 20-928. In 1981, the Supreme Court ruled 6–3 in Rostker v. Goldberg that the Military Selective Service Act, under which men, but not women, are required to register for the draft, survived constitutional scrutiny Don’t Accept Legal Challenge to All-Male Military Draft, DOJ Urges Supreme Court on March CONTINUED FROM A1 because women at that time were categorically prohibited from serving in combat roles. Because the primary purpose of registration was to replace combat troops, the court stated, “the existence of the combat restrictions clearly indicates the basis for Congress’ decision to exempt women from registration.” Any reconsideration of the constitutionality of the male-only registration requirement … would be premature at this time. Elizabeth Prelogar, U.S. acting solicitor general Although the Department of Defense rescinded the ban on women in combat in 2013, the obligation to register for the draft remains limited to men. From age 18 to 26, men are required to submit their information to the Selective Service System in case a draft is deemed necessary in the future. In a brief filed with the high court on April 14, the Biden administration carefully avoided taking a position on whether the draft system should be changed, explaining that Congress was now taking a look at the issue. “Any reconsideration of the constitutionality of the male-only registration requirement ... would be premature at this time,” Acting Solicitor General Elizabeth Prelogar wrote in the document. “Congress is actively considering the scope of the registration requirement, and Rostker itself made clear that the Court should defer to Congress where possible in this sensitive military context. “Congress’s attention to the question may soon eliminate any need for the Court to grapple with that constitutional question.” The organization that brought the case is the San Diego-based National Coalition for Men (NCFM), which was “founded in 1977 upon the realization that men needed a unified voice in addressing issues concerning men and boys,” according to its website. The NCFM is represented in the case by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), which takes the position that scuttling the men-only registration requirement would undo one of the last examples of overt sex discrimination in federal law after the Supreme Court allowed gay marriage and found last year that employment discrimination against gays and transgender individuals was illegal. “The question presented is whether ... the federal requirement that men but not women register for the Selective Service ... violates the right to equal protection guaranteed by the Fifth Amendment,” NCFM stated in its petition. The Michigan-based Center for Military Readiness (CMR) argued in a friend-of-the-court brief filed March 12 that the Supreme Court should turn away NCFM’s petition because Congress, not the courts, is authorized by Article 1, Section 8 of the Constitution to set military policy. “We support the Selective Service System as an insurance policy in the case of a catastrophic national emergency,” CMR President Elaine Donnelly previously told The Epoch Times in an interview. In a recent interview after the government brief was filed, Donnelly said her group wasn’t sure what position the Biden administration was going to take. “The argument that they make that Congress” is responsible for the issue “is essentially the same as the one we make in our amicus brief,” she said, referring to her group’s amicus curiae, or friendof- the-court, brief. “They did not, however, address the elephant in the room—whether men and women are similarly situated, essentially interchangeable in combat units.” CMR’s Supreme Court brief acknowledges that some women have proved themselves capable of meeting the high standards that combat demands and previous policies regarding women in combat billets have been repealed, but “the physiological differences between men and women have not been repealed.” Ria Tabacco Mar, counsel of record for NCFM and director of the ACLU Women’s Rights Project, was critical of the Biden administration’s filing. “Noticeably absent from the government’s brief is any argument that men-only registration is constitutional. That is not surprising given that men-only registration is outdated, based on gender stereotypes , and no longer recommended by the military itself,” she told The Epoch Times. “Rather than try to defend menonly registration, the government asks the Supreme Court to give Congress more time to update the law. But President Carter made the same ask in 1980, and Congress hasn’t fixed the problem despite having 40 years to do so. It’s long past time for the Supreme Court to declare that men-only registration is unlawful sex discrimination.” |

so yes the science shows what's going on as I speak. the universe has as well natural cycles; we though as we have not "caused" this but we have sped it up; the allegorical big truck left at the top of a hill in neutral to roll back wards:speeding up as it goes. As one ecological system dwindles to collapse the other are stressed & also collapse. We are our own worst enemy. Science is best guestimate, we only wax about that which we can put a name on, we stress over that which we cannot control; media now in politically correctness drive the "science." since I was little I've seen what's coming & darn near when.......we better buckle up. I weep & fear for the social mentality & how we will be caught unaware by not only what's coming but what's already happening. This was written out of being a realist with no religious motive What's been sped up is human civilization becoming an abomination. Believing in this "Climate Change" activist nonsense will cause lobotomization from stupid. Climate nut-jobs are religious zealots derived from Marxism, which is founded on the hate of God. Soul aim is to destroy life. When you mess with Father Time and Mother Nature you always lose. The parents of existence have ways of dealing with things. So don't be surprised when things start popping in the near future because of Clown World that was formed by these monkeys and usefuk idiots. |

Either there is or not. That's a matter of faith. God spoke the word or life was created by an exploding star. There's not 100% either way. So, it's a matter of faith to believe in God or Nature.

Masculine is loyal and feminine is faithful. Action and conclusion to an action. Without that a relationship won't afford trust.

The time has come,' the Walrus said,
To talk of many things: Of shoes — and ships — and sealing-wax — Of cabbages — and kings — And why the sea is boiling hot — And whether pigs have wings.' -Lewis Carroll Fairy Tales for girls use to teach them things. As with stories such as these, in time, allowed you to learn them. In the past the envierment was different so it was easier for most. The truth is that, "Things don't change, people do". An example is Little Red Riding Hood. We as adults know that the Wolf is a Jeffrey Dommer type. To kids it's listen to your mom and don't be stupid. The monkeys and useful idiots have been breaking things with hammers for years. Which is part of the problem. Grimm is a video game that talks about this. https://store.steampowered.com/app/252150/Grimm/ You can get the whole game on Steam. Sales also have it for %0% off and there's a demo too. Cinderella/Prince Charming Complex is being in love with the idea of love. So they marry anyone and it turns out badly. There's many Princess Stories for a reason. Not everyone's the same and you need to figure out who's the best fit for you. Fairy Tales are about getting girls to deal with their emotions and make good choices. At least good stories are designed to do so. Girls tend to learn more from reading about things then boys. Boys tend to learn more by doing. This doesn't remove the need for reading, seeing and doing (RSD) for all children. It's just a way of focusing for teaching. |

Everyone is in heaven at this very moment. Just not everyone realizes it. If you said that to someone from my grandfather's generation they'd laugh in your face. The old-timers believed that Earth is Hell's front lawn. Then again, those guys and gals who were from the last of the wooden ships an' iron men generation had it way tougher then any of us. Such as being chewed in the first world war, dropping dead at an early age, working almost all the time and so on. |

The Boogieman of socialism. It's misunderstood as far as one of Marxist's governing systems. For the most part all socialist systems are the same. The difference is in one or two variables. Fascists allow privet property. This is another way of putting the squeeze on people.
The Repulican Party has be pushing for an Arthurian Police State for years being bribed by the Capitalists spurring them on. The Demarcates have been pushing for a Tyranny Mainly spurred on by socialists until the capitalists switched sides to back them. They think they can take control from the "True Believers" who want their utopia on Earth. But fascism is what is coming to bite them in the ***. In a fascist system the government owns big companies and corporations in part or fully. The capitalists are having failing business which is a fall in media companies and so on. Getting bailouts by the socialists is forcing them into a death spiral. |

Jester Says - Dark Age
|

RJ is a guy who makes YouTube vids I watch. He put forth the preposition that we are going into another "Dark Age". This has been repeated in history at least twice before. After the Trojan Wars with the Greeks and then again with the fall of Rome. A volcanic eruption is most likely responsible for the one before the Golden Age of Greece.
Lots of people are withdrawing from society nowadays. Making homesteads and the like. The stupid are incgharge of the machinery that makes society run. People are being forced or willingly becoming brainwashed. More and more people are narcists and socio paths. Plus many other things to be added to the list. So, the collapse of society to the point of stagnation is a possibility. We can only speculate on how a Dark Age comes about. Smart people take care of and look after their own. Stupid people tend to need others to live. The pseudo intellectuals can't exist without others who can produce. Thus the stories of attacks on villages and towns to steal food and such. As the curse goes, "May you live in interesting times". Well, these 'Times' are interesting, to be sure. |
