Deranged Democrat-Antifa-Media Party Terrorist Attempts to Blow Up Mass Where Supreme Court Justices Were Gathered

Trump's been racking up wins at the Supreme Court recently.

President Donald Trump has an almost flawless record on the Supreme Court's emergency docket this year, a streak that has delivered crucial moments of relief to the government as it fights hundreds of lawsuits challenging the president's agenda.

The Supreme Court has ruled in Trump's favor on government cuts, nationwide injunctions, immigration policies and more, leading the White House to tout what it recently counted as 21 victories before the high court.

Those victories are, however, temporary. The upcoming term, which begins Monday, will allow the justices to begin weighing the full merits of some of these court disputes and ultimately cement or undo key parts of the Trump agenda.

Jonathan Adler, a William & Mary Law School professor, attributed the interim wins to the Supreme Court's desire to narrow the judicial branch's role in policymaking.

Speaking during a Federalist Society panel this week, Adler said the high court's thinking might be that "lower courts are doing too much. We're going to scale that back because it's not our place, and it's for the executive branch and the legislative branch to figure that out."

The Trump administration has only challenged about one-fifth of the adverse rulings it has received from the lower courts. Adler said Solicitor General John Sauer, who represents the government, is strategically selecting which cases to bring to the high court.

"If you go through them, setting Humphrey's Executor stuff slightly to the side, what they all have in common is that there's a kind of clear argument that ... district courts were a little too aggressive here," Adler said.

The Humprey's Executor cases are about whether bureaucrats have some property interest in employment by the government so that the president cannot fire them. Which seems plainly unconstitutional, as the Constitution says "The Executive Power shall be invested in a President." All of the executive power. Is invested in a president. And thus the president has plenary power over the Executive.

Supposed "Good Government" liberals attempted to limit the president's control over the executive branch on the absurd theory that left-wing partisan bureaucrats are "non-partisan," and hence we should give bureaucrats unconstitutional power and unconstitutionally strip power from the president. Of course, these left-wing bureaucrats are not only hyper-partisan actors but are unelected and unaccountable -- unlike the president -- and, thanks to "good government reforms," can't even be made accountable through firing or discipline.

So that's the situation.

And so a Democrat-Antifa-Media aligned terrorist tried to blow up the traditional "Red Mass" before the start of the Supreme Court term, where justices (presumably right-leaning) would be in attendance.

ATTACK AVOIDED AT CATHEDRAL? DC police say they found 200 devices and a smell of acetone emitting from some of the vials, in a tent a New Jersey man allegedly set up on the steps of St. Matthew's Cathedral just hours before the annual Red Mass. Louis Geri, 41, has been arrested. He allegedly said the devices were going to be used as "grenades and explosives". The 'Red Mass' is before the start of the Supreme Court's term and brings together justices, judges, attorneys & government officials.

CNN stresses that no Justices were actually present, hoping to downplay the left's latest terror attack:

(CNN) -- Police arrested and charged a man with possession of explosives Sunday outside a Washington, DC, church where an annual Mass to mark the start of the Supreme Court term was set to take place hours later.

The so-called Red Mass is held each year to "invoke God's blessings on those responsible for the administration of justice," according to St. Matthew's Cathedral. A spokesperson for the Supreme Court told CNN that no justices were in attendance on Sunday, though members of the high court have previously gone to the mass. The Supreme Court's new term begins on Monday.

BREAKING: Shocking arrest outside DC's St. Matthew's Cathedral this morning--NJ man Louis Geri, 41, nabbed with a Molotov cocktail, fireworks, and vials of flammable liquid in a tent on the church steps, just before the 73rd Red Mass kicked off for SCOTUS justices and top officials.

Joint FBI-ATF task force on scene; no ongoing threat, but was he plotting disruption? Stay safe, DC.

Writings found on the Democrat-Antifa Terrorist showed he was a card-carrying member of the atheist terrorist left.

A man was arrested early Sunday morning outside St. Matthew's Cathedral in NW Washington, D.C. after officers say they found a cache of over 200 homemade explosive devices in a tent on the church's front steps, along with writings opposed to the Catholic Church, the Jewish faith, the Supreme Court, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Court documents released today indicated that Metropolitan Police Department officers encountered the man, later identified by police as Louis Geri of New Jersey, while clearing the block ahead of the annual Red Mass service, which draws members of the legal community and was expected to be attended by some justices of the Supreme Court, officials said.

Early on Sunday morning, officers told him Geri he would have to move a tent and his belongings, but he refused and warned, "You might want to stay back and call the federales. I have explosives/bombs," according to police accounts.
"...several of your people are gonna to die from one of these"

Police said a sergeant from the bomb squad spoke with Geri and told him he needed to leave because of the Red Mass. Geri acknowledged the event and, officers say, began making threats and describing the devices. "Do you want me to throw one out, I'll test one out in the street? I have a hundred plus of them. If you just step back, I'll throw one in the street, no one will get hurt, there will be a hole in the street...if you just step back, I'll take out that tree," he told officers, according to the police statement.

When told he would be removed, Geri said, "...several of your people are gonna to die from one of these," police said.

Officers reported that Geri was holding a butane lighter and a small white-capped object, and that he had written documents in his tent titled "Written Negotiations for the Avoidance of Destruction of Property via Detonation of Explosives." He later confirmed that he had written the documents and that he had an "explosive background," police said. At one point, investigators said, Geri positioned his thumb over the lighter and threatened to ignite a device; officers retreated and sought to regroup.

He also had a house full of bombs.

The individual arrested for a bomb threat at a Washington, DC, church was carrying an arsenal of explosive devices on his person, according to police.

The Washington Post reported on Tuesday that Louis Geri, who was apprehended outside of St. Matthew's Cathedral before an event, had over 200 handmade bombs in his home, including bottle rockets and Molotov cocktails.

I know bottle rockets aren't a big deal but you can take the gunpowder from each and combine them to make a lethal bomb.

When he was arrested, police found a Molotov cocktail in his possession.

A man had more than 200 handmade destructive devices -- including bottle rockets and molotov cocktails -- in a tent on the steps of a D.C. cathedral where Supreme Court justices were expected to attend Mass on Sunday, court records show. During his arrest, Louis Geri threatened to ignite explosives and handed authorities pages of his notebook that, according to court records, expressed animosity toward the Catholic Church, Supreme Court justices, members of the Jewish faith and U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

D.C. police first approached Geri inside a green tent posted on the top of the stairs leading to St. Matthew's Cathedral as they cleared the block for Red Mass -- an annual religious service marking the start of a new Supreme Court term and honoring the judiciary.

But records filed in D.C. Superior Court on Monday show that when officers asked Geri to leave, he told them, "You might want to stay back and call the federales, I have explosives." An attorney for Geri did not immediately respond to a request for comment Monday.

While the left-wing Terrorist Media buries this story, they eagerly promoted the, get this, left-wing H O A X story about a left-wing judge having her house burned down.

In fact, there was no arson. It was a spontaneous accidental fire.
