any lawfags comment in on whether the new SC ruling against civil forfeiture pertains to the EO on seizing property of human traffickers?

agreed. just trying to wrap head around moves and countermoves.
So DS has been putting effort to show RBG is still alive.
POTUS uses RBG as author (through her clerks) to get rid of corrupt civil forfeiture income.
Entire SC votes unanimous to support, meaning they know status of RBG. Full Patriot control.
DS can't complain as it's their star who wrote the thing. They've been trying to prevent POTUS from getting another pick, he just used their strawman as a stealth bomber to get optically-clean and defendable rulings through.
