A sane decision of any significance by this SCOTUS usually means that something really awful is just around the corner.
Remember, they have things like birthright citizenship on their to-do list.
OK, this is business-friendly and thus right in their lane but I would not be surprised at all, if this is not also rising the shields for some reactionary semisolid digestive final product already in the works.

This year I skipped the Berlinale. I don't feel that well and it has become a wee bit too expensive too.
I also miss queuing for tickets in person. Now it's all online.
I have essentially switched to the Fantasy Film Festival (which also takes place around here with one or two additional shorter spinoffs at other times of the year).

* Warehouses for human beings: “U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement expects to spend $38.3 billion on its plan to acquire warehouses across the country and retrofit them into immigrant detention centers that can hold tens of thousands of immigrants, according to agency documents provided to New Hampshire’s governor and published on the state’s website Thursday.”

Well, all those lazy detainment center alien inmates need to do something for their upkeep before their deportation (which can then be postponed indefinitely). Send them into the fields (in chains wherever possible). That will keep labor costs low (let's not kid ourselves, that has always been the #1 priority) and be the closest thing currently achievable to the reintroduction of slavery. The inevitable (and desirable) culling effect can be compensated for years by tapping into the reservoir of millions of deportation candidates. When that is used up, enough progress will have been made into establishing a proper US gulag system (and finding a proper merkin name for it).
Don't tell me that this isn't the wet dream of some of those involved in the current mess.

Why don't they just use snow cannons?
[imagining what Mr. "Why not nuke hurricanes?" could say to the problem]. Next he would likely see water conservation as the root cause.
