NEW SCOTUS Decision! Hencely v Fluor Corp. et al (No. 24–924), Decided April 22, 2026. SCOTUS held the Supremacy Clause requires state law to yield only when it conflicts with rights or restrictions that stem from the Constitution or a valid federal statute or treaty (p5, Slip Opinion). Further, SCOTUS held federal contractors do not automatically share the Government’s immunity merely because they perform services for it (p12-16, Slip Opinion). “Instead, without a federal statute, contractors ordinarily have a constitutional defense only when the contractor is being sued precisely for accomplishing what the Federal Government requested.” Consequently, where a “Government agent had ‘exceeded his authority’ or the authority ‘was not validly conferred’ . . . the agent could be held liable for conduct causing injury to another.” And interestingly, SCOTUS expressly acknowledged their 1938 holding in Erie R. Co. v. Tompkins, 304 US 64, 78 that “[t]here is no federal general common law.”
Those judges should be charged with treason. We have away for people to come here legally. Those judges know. The truth is if they break our laws they can not become a citizen. Do the best they can do is get a work visa. Which means they have to have a job. Might sorry bunch of judges that don’t already know this. They could have worked in their own country if they were worth any thing. Where do you think all our jobs went?
