When the Supreme Court lost its most conservative member earlier this year, many thought that the remaining term could be a disaster for personal liberty cases. It turns out they were right. In the most recent decision, however, it’s not the court’s liberal wing who’s to blame. This time, the court’s traditionally conservative members dealt a confusing blow to the constitution’s Fourth Amendment.
Justices Thomas, Alito, Breyer, Kennedy, and Roberts joined forces in a decision that would grant the government additional search and seizure authority without probable cause. The decision likely intends to empower the police to stop and punish crime, but without prior knowledge of a crime being committed, all it does is allow a private citizen to be subject to imprisonment at the whim of U.S. authorities.
See what power this decision gives the U.S. government on the next page:
Supreme Court doesn’t make or change Law…… UNCONSTITUTIONAL. Attention Maggie Reese
This is pathetic power grab by the government that is supposed to protect the people. They are doing their best to turn america into a communist nation. I’m wondering how much more of this will Americans take before they stand up and say enough is enough
Slow disintegration of our Constitution and our Bill of Rights
Socialist on the move!!!!!!
I’ve got only one thing to write on this commentary due process
Don’t forget due process

So now NSA can go back to sucking up all the data regardless if US citizen is in the data? Because it is the 4th Amendment that protects citizens from that happening to them.
