A federal judge in Texas has just struck down, nationwide, the Biden FTC rule banning noncompetes as arbitrary, capricious & in excess of the FTC's authority. A truly shocking result even by the standards of the right-wing judiciary. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
Absurd judges writing any old rubbish. The watch subprime Roberts and his 4 cronies get away with it too.
What happened to "free market capitalism"?What happened to "free market capitalism"?
We need to unfuck the courts. This kind of shit cannot continue.
Idk I refuse to be shocked anymore by anything that comes about as a result of the right-wing project to take over the federal judiciary that started in the 70s coming to fruition, honestly.
Curious what they would concede is the FTC's actual authority.
Is this tied to the Chevron decision or is this just something else?
When we said “Free markets” we didn’t mean for workers! That would be absurd!
The courts are lawless, and it feels more and more that we regular citizens lack any reliable recourse to these judges going rogue.
Worth calling our Dem reps & the WH, & saying that court reform needs to be a priority. It’s nuts that it’s not in the DNC platform.
