Federal Officials Refuse to Transfer Prisoner to Oklahoma for Execution

The SC will order him returned to Oklahoma and he’ll be executed.

Interesting, because, federal law, which is supposedly above state law, makes no exceptions with respect to death penalty cases. If the SCOTUS conservatives are truly reconstructionists, on what legal basis could they decide for Oklahoma?

If they did that, it would just prove that SCOTUS, as dominated by far right conservatives, is just a political institution, a second legislature, as opposed to a true judiciary. No way, no how, could SCOTUS ever elevate Oklahoma law above federal law with respect to an individual's civil rights.

They could try some fancy footwork about federal overstepping, I suppose. Tenth Amendment stuff.

They elevated the opinions of a dead british witchfinder to do the same......I'm not sure why anyone thinks something still needs proving, or that there's no way the clerics on the courts could do...really..whatever the fuck they wanted.

-but don't worry guys, dominionists aren't taking over the us government, that's just batshit fear mongering...we were told for years and years and years. Wink
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight.

It's a stark demonstration of the hold that the owner class has on the power of state - whether it's done judicially or extrajudicially - nothing says "do what we say" like "or we'll have you killed".  It's not a bug, it's a feature.  Even if you flee a jurisdiction to some (ostensibly) better place...they'll just drag you back, showing that they also have control over those better places.

Why do you think Sam Alito is whining into any ear that will listen that people being given access to his own thoughts which he would ensconce as law puts a target on his back for assassination?  I feel like we have short memories.

Alabama calls off the execution of Kenneth Eugene Smith moments ago, even after SCOTUS rubber-stamped its vacating of his final stay.
