Justice Alito's dissent in today's Bostock v. Clayton County, GA ruling insists Supreme Court "sails under a textualist flag" and invokes Scalia's excoriation of those who think the courts should "'update' old statutes so that they better reflect the current values of society." This is just breathtakingly hypocritical in light of Alito's joining Scalia in the Heller decision's grotesque tergiversation of the text and the history of the Second Amendment in the name of updating old statutes to better reflect the current values of (a small minority) of society. What a joke.

I’ve literally never seen the word “tergiversation” used before. Why? What was it about this event that spurred your use of that incredibly particular word, and where in THE “F” did you see it used before?

Hell of a word huh? But so apt.

I'm looking forward to reading the opinion. Perhaps the most surprising part is that it was 6-3, with Gorsuch joining the majority. The Court's website was so jammed I couldn't get on earlier today. Evening reading, I guess.

Most corporations don't care about your gender identity and sexual orientation. The ruling doesn't affect corporate America.
